build configuration variables. By default gitweb tries to find them
in the same directory as gitweb.cgi script.
+- You can optionally generate a minified version of gitweb.css by defining
+ the CSSMIN build configuration variable. By default the non-minified
+ version of gitweb.css will be used. NOTE: if you enable this option,
+ substitute gitweb.min.css for all uses of gitweb.css in the help files.

Build example
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
$feature{'snapshot'}{'default'} = ['zip', 'tgz'];
$feature{'snapshot'}{'override'} = 1;
+If you allow overriding for the snapshot feature, you can specify which
+snapshot formats are globally disabled. You can also add any command line
+options you want (such as setting the compression level). For instance,
+you can disable Zip compressed snapshots and set GZip to run at level 6 by
+adding the following lines to your $GITWEB_CONFIG:
+
+ $known_snapshot_formats{'zip'}{'disabled'} = 1;
+ $known_snapshot_formats{'tgz'}{'compressor'} = ['gzip','-6'];
+
Gitweb repositories
-------------------
shows repositories only if this file exists in its object database
(if directory has the magic file named $export_ok).
+- Finally, it is possible to specify an arbitrary perl subroutine that
+ will be called for each project to determine if it can be exported.
+ The subroutine receives an absolute path to the project as its only
+ parameter.
+
+ For example, if you use mod_perl to run the script, and have dumb
+ http protocol authentication configured for your repositories, you
+ can use the following hook to allow access only if the user is
+ authorized to read the files:
+
+ $export_auth_hook = sub {
+ use Apache2::SubRequest ();
+ use Apache2::Const -compile => qw(HTTP_OK);
+ my $path = "$_[0]/HEAD";
+ my $r = Apache2::RequestUtil->request;
+ my $sub = $r->lookup_file($path);
+ return $sub->filename eq $path
+ && $sub->status == Apache2::Const::HTTP_OK;
+ };
