I had a few problems getting it to work at first. Only later did I notice that "git-instaweb" didn't work. Having fixed the installation problems earlier, I fixed git-instaweb and then forgot to send in the patch. Oops... Patch on the way... ;-) [I had intended to make several other changes and submit it later...] You may also notice that "git-instaweb" does not provide the git-logo.png and git-favicon.png; so if that bothers you, just copy those files from your git repo into the target repo's .git/gitweb directory. (That was one of the things I was going to look at fixing) <off-topic> Note: if you decide to try cgit, then be aware that lighttpd has a bug which causes problems with mixed-case pathnames in the pathinfo. lighttpd down-cases the filename part of the pathinfo when on a case insensitive filesystem, so cgit can't find the corresponding blob. (This is not a problem with gitweb). I sent a fix for this bug to (who I thought was) the lighttpd maintainer, but didn't get any response; so don't count on a fix for this. An amusing, but impractical, workaround for this is to name your document root something like /123 ie the path is numeric (and so does not differ in case ;-) [lighttpd uses a runtime test of the case-sensitive-ness of the document root pathname to control this behaviour] Also, I could not get lighttpd to execute a cgi program with an ".exe" extension so I had to create a simple script, viz: $ cat /var/www/cgit/cgit.cgi #!/bin/sh exec /var/www/cgit/cgit.cgi.exe $ <off-topic> ATB, Ramsay Jones -- 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
