Points to the location where you put gitweb.css on your web server
(or to be more generic, the URI of gitweb stylesheet). Relative to the
base URI of gitweb. Note that you can setup multiple stylesheets from
- the gitweb config file. [Default: gitweb.css]
+ the gitweb config file. [Default: gitweb.css (or gitweb.min.css if the
+ CSSMIN variable is defined / CSS minifier is used)]
* GITWEB_LOGO
Points to the location where you put git-logo.png on your web server
(or to be more generic URI of logo, 72x27 size, displayed in top right
repositories, you can configure apache like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
- ServerName git.example.org
- DocumentRoot /pub/git
- SetEnv GITWEB_CONFIG /etc/gitweb.conf
+ ServerName git.example.org
+ DocumentRoot /pub/git
+ SetEnv GITWEB_CONFIG /etc/gitweb.conf
+
+ # turning on mod rewrite
RewriteEngine on
+
# make the front page an internal rewrite to the gitweb script
RewriteRule ^/$ /cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi
+
# make access for "dumb clients" work
RewriteRule ^/(.*\.git/(?!/?(HEAD|info|objects|refs)).*)?$ /cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi%{REQUEST_URI} [L,PT]
</VirtualHost>
$home_link = "/";
+Webserver configuration with multiple projects' root
+----------------------------------------------------
+
+If you want to use gitweb with several project roots you can edit your apache
+virtual host and gitweb.conf configuration files like this :
+
+virtual host configuration :
+
+<VirtualHost *:80>
+ ServerName git.example.org
+ DocumentRoot /pub/git
+ SetEnv GITWEB_CONFIG /etc/gitweb.conf
+
+ # turning on mod rewrite
+ RewriteEngine on
+
+ # make the front page an internal rewrite to the gitweb script
+ RewriteRule ^/$ /cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi [QSA,L,PT]
+
+ # look for a public_git folder in unix users' home
+ # http://git.example.org/~<user>/
+ RewriteRule ^/\~([^\/]+)(/|/gitweb.cgi)?$ /cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi [QSA,E=GITWEB_PROJECTROOT:/home/$1/public_git/,L,PT]
+
+ # http://git.example.org/+<user>/
+ #RewriteRule ^/\+([^\/]+)(/|/gitweb.cgi)?$ /cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi [QSA,E=GITWEB_PROJECTROOT:/home/$1/public_git/,L,PT]
+
+ # http://git.example.org/user/<user>/
+ #RewriteRule ^/user/([^\/]+)/(gitweb.cgi)?$ /cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi [QSA,E=GITWEB_PROJECTROOT:/home/$1/public_git/,L,PT]
+
+ # defined list of project roots
+ RewriteRule ^/scm(/|/gitweb.cgi)?$ /cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi [QSA,E=GITWEB_PROJECTROOT:/pub/scm/,L,PT]
+ RewriteRule ^/var(/|/gitweb.cgi)?$ /cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi [QSA,E=GITWEB_PROJECTROOT:/var/git/,L,PT]
+
+ # make access for "dumb clients" work
+ RewriteRule ^/(.*\.git/(?!/?(HEAD|info|objects|refs)).*)?$ /cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi%{REQUEST_URI} [L,PT]
+</VirtualHost>
+
+gitweb.conf configuration :
+
+$projectroot = $ENV{'GITWEB_PROJECTROOT'} || "/pub/git";
+
+These configurations enable two things. First, each unix user (<user>) of the
+server will be able to browse through gitweb git repositories found in
+~/public_git/ with the following url : http://git.example.org/~<user>/
+
+If you do not want this feature on your server just remove the second rewrite rule.
+
+If you already use mod_userdir in your virtual host or you don't want to use
+the '~' as first character just comment or remove the second rewrite rule and
+uncomment one of the following according to what you want.
+
+Second, repositories found in /pub/scm/ and /var/git/ will be accesible
+through http://git.example.org/scm/ and http://git.example.org/var/.
+You can add as many project roots as you want by adding rewrite rules like the
+third and the fourth.

PATH_INFO usage
-----------------------
If you enable PATH_INFO usage in gitweb by putting
