Because of backward compatibility we cannot change gitweb to always use /etc/gitweb.conf (i.e. even if gitweb_config.perl exists). For common system-wide settings we therefore need separate configuration file: /etc/gitweb-common.conf. Long description: gitweb currently obtains configuration from the following sources: 1. per-instance configuration file (default: gitweb_conf.perl) 2. system-wide configuration file (default: /etc/gitweb.conf) If per-instance configuration file exists, then system-wide configuration is _not used at all_. This is quite untypical and suprising behavior. Moreover it is different from way git itself treats /etc/git.conf. It reads in stuff from /etc/git.conf and then local repos can change or override things as needed. In fact this is quite beneficial, because it gives site admins a simple and easy way to give an automatic hint to a repo about things the admin would like. On the other hand changing current behavior may lead to the situation, where something in /etc/gitweb.conf may interfere with unintended interaction in the local repository. One solution would be to _require_ to do explicit include; with read_config_file() it is now easy, as described in gitweb/README (description introduced in this commit). But as J.H. noticed we cannot ask people to modify their per-instance gitweb config file to include system-wide settings, nor we can require them to do this. Therefore, as proposed by Junio, for gitweb to have centralized config elements while retaining backwards compatibility, introduce separate common system-wide configuration file, by default /etc/gitweb-common.conf Noticed-by: Drew Northup <drew.northup@maine.edu> Helped-by: John 'Warthog9' Hawley <warthog9@kernel.org> Inspired-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> |

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
GIT - the stupid content tracker
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a
mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the
documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help
commandname".
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is
installed).
Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/
including full documentation and Git related tools.
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe
to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to
majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites.
The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
