You should set it up to - the place where the git binary was installed (usually /usr/bin) if you - don't install git from sources together with gitweb. [Default: $(bindir)] - * GITWEB_SITENAME - Shown in the title of all generated pages, defaults to the server name - (SERVER_NAME CGI environment variable) if not set. [No default] - * GITWEB_PROJECTROOT - The root directory for all projects shown by gitweb. Must be set - correctly for gitweb to find repositories to display. See also - "Gitweb repositories" in the INSTALL file for gitweb. [Default: /pub/git] - * GITWEB_PROJECT_MAXDEPTH - The filesystem traversing limit for getting the project list; the number - is taken as depth relative to the projectroot. It is used when - GITWEB_LIST is a directory (or is not set; then project root is used). - This is meant to speed up project listing on large work trees by limiting - search depth. [Default: 2007] - * GITWEB_LIST - Points to a directory to scan for projects (defaults to project root - if not set / if empty) or to a file with explicit listing of projects - (together with projects' ownership). See "Generating projects list - using gitweb" in INSTALL file for gitweb to find out how to generate - such file from scan of a directory. [No default, which means use root - directory for projects] - * GITWEB_EXPORT_OK - Show repository only if this file exists (in repository). Only - effective if this variable evaluates to true. [No default / Not set] - * GITWEB_STRICT_EXPORT - Only allow viewing of repositories also shown on the overview page. - This for example makes GITWEB_EXPORT_OK to decide if repository is - available and not only if it is shown. If GITWEB_LIST points to - file with list of project, only those repositories listed would be - available for gitweb. [No default] - * GITWEB_HOMETEXT - Points to an .html file which is included on the gitweb project - overview page ('projects_list' view), if it exists. Relative to - gitweb.cgi script. [Default: indextext.html] - * GITWEB_SITE_HEADER - Filename of html text to include at top of each page. Relative to - gitweb.cgi script. [No default] - * GITWEB_SITE_FOOTER - Filename of html text to include at bottom of each page. Relative to - gitweb.cgi script. [No default] - * GITWEB_HOME_LINK_STR - String of the home link on top of all pages, leading to $home_link - (usually main gitweb page, which means projects list). Used as first - part of gitweb view "breadcrumb trail": <home> / <project> / <view>. - [Default: projects] - * GITWEB_SITENAME - Name of your site or organization to appear in page titles. Set it - to something descriptive for clearer bookmarks etc. If not set - (if empty) gitweb uses "$SERVER_NAME Git", or "Untitled Git" if - SERVER_NAME CGI environment variable is not set (e.g. if running - gitweb as standalone script). [No default] - * GITWEB_BASE_URL - Git base URLs used for URL to where fetch project from, i.e. full - URL is "$git_base_url/$project". Shown on projects summary page. - Repository URL for project can be also configured per repository; this - takes precedence over URLs composed from base URL and a project name. - Note that you can setup multiple base URLs (for example one for - git:// protocol access, another for http:// access) from the gitweb - config file. [No default] - * GITWEB_CSS - Points to the location where you put gitweb.css on your web server - (or to be more generic, the URI of gitweb stylesheet). Relative to the - base URI of gitweb. Note that you can setup multiple stylesheets from - the gitweb config file. [Default: static/gitweb.css (or - static/gitweb.min.css if the CSSMIN variable is defined / CSS minifier - is used)] - * GITWEB_LOGO - Points to the location where you put git-logo.png on your web server - (or to be more generic URI of logo, 72x27 size, displayed in top right - corner of each gitweb page, and used as logo for Atom feed). Relative - to base URI of gitweb. [Default: static/git-logo.png] - * GITWEB_FAVICON - Points to the location where you put git-favicon.png on your web server - (or to be more generic URI of favicon, assumed to be image/png type; - web browsers that support favicons (website icons) may display them - in the browser's URL bar and next to site name in bookmarks). Relative - to base URI of gitweb. [Default: static/git-favicon.png] - * GITWEB_JS - Points to the location where you put gitweb.js on your web server - (or to be more generic URI of JavaScript code used by gitweb). - Relative to base URI of gitweb. [Default: static/gitweb.js (or - static/gitweb.min.js if JSMIN build variable is defined / JavaScript - minifier is used)] - * GITWEB_CONFIG - This Perl file will be loaded using 'do' and can be used to override any - of the options above as well as some other options -- see the "Runtime - gitweb configuration" section below, and top of 'gitweb.cgi' for their - full list and description. If the environment variable GITWEB_CONFIG - is set when gitweb.cgi is executed, then the file specified in the - environment variable will be loaded instead of the file specified - when gitweb.cgi was created. [Default: gitweb_config.perl] - * GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM - This Perl file will be loaded using 'do' as a fallback if GITWEB_CONFIG - does not exist. If the environment variable GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM is set - when gitweb.cgi is executed, then the file specified in the environment - variable will be loaded instead of the file specified when gitweb.cgi was - created. [Default: /etc/gitweb.conf] - * HIGHLIGHT_BIN - Path to the highlight executable to use (must be the one from - http://www.andre-simon.de due to assumptions about parameters and output). - Useful if highlight is not installed on your webserver's PATH. - [Default: highlight] - - Runtime gitweb configuration ---------------------------- @@ -207,6 +93,15 @@ not include variables usually directly set during build): full description is available as 'title' attribute (usually shown on mouseover).
