I guess I could add support for something like scan-paths=/pub/git in cgitrc (and optionally store the result of the scan as another cgitrc-file in the cache directory).

What RewriteRule should I use instead? On hjemli.net I used to specify "virtual-root=/git" in cgitrc combined with this rule in /etc/apache/httpd.conf RewriteRule ^/git/(.*)$ /cgit/cgit.cgi?url=$1 [L,QSA] But currently I'm running the tip of the wip-branch (which has support for PATH_INFO) on hjemli.net , so I've removed the "virtual-root" from cgitrc and the rewriterule from httpd.conf and just use this instead: ScriptAlias /git /var/www/htdocs/cgit/cgit.cgi hth, larsh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
