+#+title: cgit-httpd
+#+OPTIONS: toc:nil
+
+An httpd designed to expose the [[https://git.zx2c4.com/cgit/about/][CGit]] and the [[https://git-scm.com/docs/git-http-backend][git-http-backend]] CGI programs to HTTP reverse proxies that do not have native support for executing CGI programs.
+
+* Features
+
+- Supports both the smart and dumb Git HTTP protocols by mounting =git-http-backend= over CGit.
+- Git repositories can be hosted on separate machine from main HTTP server.
