2010-05-31gitweb: Move static files into seperate subdirectoryLibravatar Pavan Kumar Sunkara1-10/+9
Create a new subdirectory called 'static' in gitweb/, and move all static files required by gitweb.cgi when running, which means styles, images and Javascript code. This should make gitweb more readable and easier to maintain. Update t/gitweb-lib.sh to reflect this change.The install-gitweb now also include moving of static files into 'static' subdirectory in target directory: update Makefile, gitweb's INSTALL, README and Makefile accordingly.

2010-05-01gitweb: Create install target for gitweb in MakefileLibravatar Jakub Narebski1-7/+4
Installing gitweb is now as easy as # make gitwebdir=/var/www/cgi-bin gitweb-install ;# as root The gitweb/INSTALL file was updated accordingly, to make use of this new target. Fix shell quoting, i.e. setting bindir_SQ etc., in gitweb/Makefile. Those variables were not used previously.

2010-04-02gitweb: update INSTALL to use shorter make targetLibravatar Mark Rada1-9/+7
Gitweb can be generated by the gitweb/gitweb.cgi target or the gitweb target. Since the gitweb target is shorter, I think it would be better to have new users be instructed to use it. Signed-off-by: Mark Rada <marada@uwaterloo.ca> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-04-02gitweb: add documentation to INSTALL regarding gitweb.jsLibravatar Mark Rada1-10/+13
This patch updates gitweb/INSTALL to mention gitweb.js, including JavaScript minification support. Signed-off-by: Mark Rada <marada@uwaterloo.ca> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2010-04-02Gitweb: add support for minifying gitweb.cssLibravatar Mark Rada1-0/+5
The build system added support minifying gitweb.js through a JavaScript minifier, but most minifiers come with support for minifying CSS files as well, so we should use it if we can. This patch will add the same facilities to gitweb.css that gitweb.js has for minification. That does not mean that they will use the same minifier though, as it is not safe to assume that all JavaScript minifiers will also minify CSS files. This patch also adds the GITWEB_PROGRAMS variable to the Makefile to keep a list of potential gitweb dependencies separate from OTHER_PROGRAMS when we need to know just the gitweb dependencies. Though the bandwidth savings will not be as dramatic as with the JavaScript minifier, every byte saved is important.

2008-11-06gitweb: Add a per-repository authorization hook.Libravatar Alexander Gavrilov1-0/+21
Add a configuration variable that can be used to specify an arbitrary subroutine that will be called in the same situations where $export_ok is checked, and its return value used to decide whether the repository is to be shown. This allows the user to implement custom authentication schemes, for example by issuing a subrequest through mod_perl and checking if Apache will authorize it.

2008-03-27gitweb: fallback to system-wide config file if default config does not existLibravatar Gerrit Pape1-1/+5
From a distribution point of view, configuration files for applications should reside in /etc/. On the other hand it's convenient for multiple instances of gitweb (e.g. virtual web servers on a single machine) to have a per-instance configuration file, just as gitweb currently supports through the file gitweb_config.perl next to the cgi. To support both at runtime, this commit introduces GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM as a system-wide configuration file which will be used as a fallback if the config file sprecified throug GITWEB_CONFIG does not exist.
