        Log to syslog instead of stderr. Note that this option does not imply
        --verbose, thus by default only error conditions will be logged.
 
+--user-path, --user-path=path::
+       Allow ~user notation to be used in requests.  When
+       specified with no parameter, requests to
+       git://host/~alice/foo is taken as a request to access
+       'foo' repository in the home directory of user `alice`.
+       If `--user-path=path` is specified, the same request is
+       taken as a request to access `path/foo` repository in
+       the home directory of user `alice`.
+
 --verbose::
        Log details about the incoming connections and requested files.
 
+--reuseaddr::
+       Use SO_REUSEADDR when binding the listening socket.
+       This allows the server to restart without waiting for
+       old connections to time out.
+
+--detach::
+       Detach from the shell. Implies --syslog.
+
+--pid-file=file::
+       Save the process id in 'file'.
+
+--user=user, --group=group::
+       Change daemon's uid and gid before entering the service loop.
+       When only `--user` is given without `--group`, the
+       primary group ID for the user is used.  The values of
+       the option are given to `getpwnam(3)` and `getgrnam(3)`
+       and numeric IDs are not supported.
++
+Giving these options is an error when used with `--inetd`; use
+the facility of inet daemon to achieve the same before spawning
+`git-daemon` if needed.

 <directory>::
        A directory to add to the whitelist of allowed directories. Unless
        --strict-paths is specified this will also include subdirectories
