|
||||
Building cgit involves building a proper version of Git. How to do this
|
||||
depends on how you obtained the cgit sources:
|
||||
|
||||
a) If you're working in a cloned cgit repository, you first need to
|
||||
initialize and update the git submodule:
|
||||
initialize and update the Git submodule:
|
||||
|
||||
$ git submodule init # register the git submodule in .git/config
|
||||
$ $EDITOR .git/config # if you want to specify a different url for git
|
||||
$ git submodule update # clone/fetch and checkout correct git version
|
||||
$ git submodule init # register the Git submodule in .git/config
|
||||
$ $EDITOR .git/config # if you want to specify a different url for git
|
||||
$ git submodule update # clone/fetch and checkout correct git version
|
||||
|
||||
b) If you're building from a cgit tarball, you can download a proper git
|
||||
version like this:
|
||||
|
||||
$ make get-git
|
||||
|
||||
$ make get-git
|
||||
|
||||
When either a) or b) has been performed, you can build and install cgit like
|
||||
this:
|
||||
|
||||
$ make
|
||||
$ sudo make install
|
||||
$ make
|
||||
$ sudo make install
|
||||
|
||||
This will install cgit.cgi and cgit.css into "/var/www/htdocs/cgit". You can
|
||||
configure this location (and a few other things) by providing a "cgit.conf"
|
||||
This will install `cgit.cgi` and `cgit.css` into `/var/www/htdocs/cgit`. You
|
||||
can configure this location (and a few other things) by providing a `cgit.conf`
|
||||
file (see the Makefile for details).

The cache
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|

When cgit is invoked it looks for a cachefile matching the request and
|
||||
returns it to the client. If no such cachefile exist (or if it has expired),
|
||||
the content for the request is written into the proper cachefile before the
