Set to empty string + to disable this feature. Defaults to "via git-CVS emulator". + +gitcvs.enabled:: + Whether the CVS server interface is enabled for this repository. + See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1]. + +gitcvs.logFile:: + Path to a log file where the CVS server interface well... logs + various stuff. See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1]. + +gitcvs.usecrlfattr:: + If true, the server will look up the end-of-line conversion + attributes for files to determine the `-k` modes to use. If + the attributes force Git to treat a file as text, + the `-k` mode will be left blank so CVS clients will + treat it as text. If they suppress text conversion, the file + will be set with '-kb' mode, which suppresses any newline munging + the client might otherwise do. If the attributes do not allow + the file type to be determined, then `gitcvs.allBinary` is + used. See linkgit:gitattributes[5]. + +gitcvs.allBinary:: + This is used if `gitcvs.usecrlfattr` does not resolve + the correct '-kb' mode to use. If true, all + unresolved files are sent to the client in + mode '-kb'. This causes the client to treat them + as binary files, which suppresses any newline munging it + otherwise might do. Alternatively, if it is set to "guess", + then the contents of the file are examined to decide if + it is binary, similar to `core.autocrlf`. + +gitcvs.dbName:: + Database used by git-cvsserver to cache revision information + derived from the Git repository. The exact meaning depends on the + used database driver, for SQLite (which is the default driver) this + is a filename. Supports variable substitution (see + linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details). May not contain semicolons (`;`). + Default: '%Ggitcvs.%m.sqlite' + +gitcvs.dbDriver:: + Used Perl DBI driver. You can specify any available driver + for this here, but it might not work. git-cvsserver is tested + with 'DBD::SQLite', reported to work with 'DBD::Pg', and + reported *not* to work with 'DBD::mysql'. Experimental feature. + May not contain double colons (`:`). Default: 'SQLite'. + See linkgit:git-cvsserver[1]. + +gitcvs.dbUser, gitcvs.dbPass:: + Database user and password. Only useful if setting `gitcvs.dbDriver`, + since SQLite has no concept of database users and/or passwords. + 'gitcvs.dbUser' supports variable substitution (see + linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details). + +gitcvs.dbTableNamePrefix:: + Database table name prefix. Prepended to the names of any + database tables used, allowing a single database to be used + for several repositories. Supports variable substitution (see + linkgit:git-cvsserver[1] for details). Any non-alphabetic + characters will be replaced with underscores. + +All gitcvs variables except for `gitcvs.usecrlfattr` and +`gitcvs.allBinary` can also be specified as +'gitcvs.<access_method>.<varname>' (where 'access_method' +is one of "ext" and "pserver") to make them apply only for the given +access method. |
