'git://example.com/hello.git', `git-daemon` will interpret the path
as '/srv/git/hello.git'.
+--interpolated-path=pathtemplate::
+ To support virtual hosting, an interpolated path template can be
+ used to dynamically construct alternate paths. The template
+ supports %H for the target hostname as supplied by the client,
+ and %D for the absolute path of the named repository.
+
--export-all::
Allow pulling from all directories that look like GIT repositories
(have the 'objects' and 'refs' subdirectories), even if they
disable it by setting `daemon.uploadpack` configuration
item to `false`.
+EXAMPLES
+--------
+git-daemon as inetd server::
+ To set up `git-daemon` as an inetd service that handles any
+ repository under the whitelisted set of directories, /pub/foo
+ and /pub/bar, place an entry like the following into
+ /etc/inetd all on one line:
++
+------------------------------------------------
+ git stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/bin/git-daemon
+ git-daemon --inetd --verbose
+ --syslog --export-all
+ /pub/foo /pub/bar
+------------------------------------------------
+
+
+git-daemon as inetd server for virtual hosts::
+ To set up `git-daemon` as an inetd service that handles
+ repositories for different virtual hosts, `www.example.com`
+ and `www.example.org`, place an entry like the following into
+ `/etc/inetd` all on one line:
++
+------------------------------------------------
+ git stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/bin/git-daemon
+ git-daemon --inetd --verbose
+ --syslog --export-all
+ --interpolated-path=/pub/%H%D
+ /pub/www.example.org/software
+ /pub/www.example.com/software
+ /software
+------------------------------------------------
++
+In this example, the root-level directory `/pub` will contain
+a subdirectory for each virtual host name supported.
+Further, both hosts advertise repositories simply as
+`git://www.example.com/software/repo.git`. For pre-1.4.0
+clients, a symlink from `/software` into the appropriate
+default repository could be made as well.
