>From a distribution point of view, configuration files for applications should reside in /etc/. On the other hand it's convenient for multiple instances of gitweb (e.g. virtual web servers on a single machine) to have a per-instance configuration file, just as gitweb currently supports through the file gitweb_config.perl next to the cgi. To support both at runtime, this commit introduces GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM as a system-wide configuration file which will be used as a fallback if the config file sprecified throug GITWEB_CONFIG does not exist. See also http://bugs.debian.org/450592 Signed-off-by: Gerrit Pape <pape@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- I amended the patch to properly apply GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM set through make to gitweb.cgi.
