=======================================
First you have to generate gitweb.cgi from gitweb.perl using
-"make gitweb", then copy appropriate files (gitweb.cgi, gitweb.js,
-gitweb.css, git-logo.png and git-favicon.png) to their destination.
-For example if git was (or is) installed with /usr prefix, you can do
+"make gitweb", then "make install-gitweb" appropriate files
+(gitweb.cgi, gitweb.js, gitweb.css, git-logo.png and git-favicon.png)
+to their destination. For example if git was (or is) installed with
+/usr prefix and gitwebdir is /var/www/cgi-bin, you can do
$ make prefix=/usr gitweb ;# as yourself
# make gitwebdir=/var/www/cgi-bin install-gitweb ;# as root
minifiers, you can do
make GITWEB_PROJECTROOT="/home/local/scm" \
- GITWEB_JS="/gitweb/gitweb.js" \
- GITWEB_CSS="/gitweb/gitweb.css" \
- GITWEB_LOGO="/gitweb/git-logo.png" \
- GITWEB_FAVICON="/gitweb/git-favicon.png" \
+ GITWEB_JS="gitweb/static/gitweb.js" \
+ GITWEB_CSS="gitweb/static/gitweb.css" \
+ GITWEB_LOGO="gitweb/static/git-logo.png" \
+ GITWEB_FAVICON="gitweb/static/git-favicon.png" \
bindir=/usr/local/bin \
gitweb
- cp -fv gitweb/gitweb.{cgi,js,css} \
- gitweb/git-{favicon,logo}.png \
- /var/www/cgi-bin/gitweb/
+ make gitwebdir=/var/www/cgi-bin/gitweb install-gitweb
Gitweb config file
- Perl modules: CGI, Encode, Fcntl, File::Find, File::Basename.
- web server
+The following optional Perl modules are required for extra features
+ - Digest::MD5 - for gravatar support
+ - CGI::Fast and FCGI - for running gitweb as FastCGI script
+ - HTML::TagCloud - for fancy tag cloud in project list view
+ - HTTP::Date or Time::ParseDate - to support If-Modified-Since for feeds
