  15DESCRIPTION
  16-----------
  17A simple script to set up `gitweb` and a web server for browsing the local
  18repository.
  19
  20OPTIONS
  21-------
  22
  23-l::
  24--local::
  25        Only bind the web server to the local IP (127.0.0.1).
  26
  27-d::
  28--httpd::
  29        The HTTP daemon command-line that will be executed.
  30        Command-line options may be specified here, and the
  31        configuration file will be added at the end of the command-line.
  32        Currently lighttpd, apache2 and webrick are supported.
  33        (Default: lighttpd)
  34
  35-m::
  36--module-path::
  37        The module path (only needed if httpd is Apache).
  38        (Default: /usr/lib/apache2/modules)
  39
  40-p::
  41--port::
  42        The port number to bind the httpd to.  (Default: 1234)
  43
  44-b::
  45--browser::
  46        The web browser that should be used to view the gitweb
  47        page. This will be passed to the 'git-web--browse' helper
  48        script along with the URL of the gitweb instance. See
  49        linkgit:git-web--browse[1] for more information about this. If
  50        the script fails, the URL will be printed to stdout.
  51
  52--start::
  53        Start the httpd instance and exit.  This does not generate
  54        any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.
  55
  56--stop::
  57        Stop the httpd instance and exit.  This does not generate
  58        any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance,
  59        nor does it close the browser.
  60
  61--restart::
  62        Restart the httpd instance and exit.  This does not generate
  63        any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.
  64
