* $fallback_encoding
Gitweb assumes this charset if line contains non-UTF-8 characters.
Fallback decoding is used without error checking, so it can be even
- 'utf-8'. Value mist be valid encodig; see Encoding::Supported(3pm) man
+ 'utf-8'. Value must be valid encoding; see Encoding::Supported(3pm) man
page for a list. By default 'latin1', aka. 'iso-8859-1'.
* @diff_opts
Rename detection options for git-diff and git-diff-tree. By default
DocumentRoot /var/www/gitweb
- AliasMatch ^(/.*?)(\.git)(/.*)? /pub/git$1$3
+ AliasMatch ^(/.*?)(\.git)(/.*)?$ /pub/git$1$3
<Directory /var/www/gitweb>
Options ExecCGI
AddHandler cgi-script cgi
will provide human-friendly gitweb access.
+This solution is not 100% bulletproof, in the sense that if some project
+has a named ref (branch, tag) starting with 'git/', then paths such as
+
+http://git.example.com/project/command/abranch..git/abranch
+
+will fail with a 404 error.
