| git-daemon-sysvinit for Debian |
| ------------------------------ |
| |
| This package enables a git-daemon service. This allows people to use a |
| git:// URL to access your repositories. |
| |
| After installing this package, the daemon needs to be enabled in |
| /etc/default/git-daemon by setting: |
| |
| GIT_DAEMON_ENABLE=false |
| |
| to: |
| |
| GIT_DAEMON_ENABLE=true |
| |
| After that, the git daemon can be started with: |
| |
| # /etc/init.d/git-daemon start |
| |
| The git daemon by default looks into the directory /var/lib/git/ for |
| repositories (this is configured in /etc/default/git-daemon). It expects |
| the repositories' .git subdirectories in that directory, symlinks |
| pointing to the corresponding subdirectories in the repositories are just |
| fine, e.g.: |
| |
| ln -s ~daniel/git/foo/.git /var/lib/git/foo.git |
| |
| This makes 'git-clone git://git.example.org/git/foo' to clone the foo |
| repository on remote machines work. |
