It expects +the repositories' .git subdirectories in /var/lib/git/, symlinks pointing +to the corresponding subdirectories in the repositories are just fine, e.g.: + + ln -s ~pape/git/foo/.git /var/lib/git/foo.git + +On systems with an Apache webserver, gitweb is automatically made available at +http://localhost/gitweb. This requires CGI support, so you may need to run +"a2enmod cgi". You can deactivate the site by running "a2disconf gitweb" or +tweak it by modifying /etc/apache2/conf-available/gitweb.conf + +For more details about setting up gitweb for a git.example.org server, and +on how to make the git core tools such as 'git clone' work through http, see +/usr/share/doc/git/README.Debian. |
