This allows people to use a +git:// URL to access your repositories. + +After installing this package, the daemon needs to be enabled in +/etc/default/git-daemon by setting: + + GIT_DAEMON_ENABLE=false + +to: + + GIT_DAEMON_ENABLE=true + +After that, the git daemon can be started with: + + # /etc/init.d/git-daemon start + +The git daemon by default looks into the directory /var/lib/git/ for +repositories (this is configured in /etc/default/git-daemon). It expects +the repositories' .git subdirectories in that directory, symlinks +pointing to the corresponding subdirectories in the repositories are just +fine, e.g.: + + ln -s ~daniel/git/foo/.git /var/lib/git/foo.git + +This makes 'git-clone git://git.example.org/git/foo' to clone the foo +repository on remote machines work. + + -- Daniel Baumann <daniel@debian.org> Tue, 19 Oct 2010 00:54:58 +0200 |
