| git-daemon-run 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, wait five seconds for the git-daemon |
| service to be picked up by runit, and check its status and logs: |
| |
| sv stat git-daemon |
| cat /var/log/git-daemon/current |
| |
| See the sv(8) program on how to manage the service, or, alternatively, |
| create a symbolic link /etc/init.d/git-daemon pointing to /usr/bin/sv to |
| have an LSB compatible interface to control it: |
| |
| ln -s /usr/bin/sv /etc/init.d/git-daemon |
| /etc/init.d/git-daemon status |
| |
| The git daemon by default looks into the directory /var/lib/git/ for |
| repositories (this is configured in /etc/sv/git-daemon/run). 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 ~pape/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. |
