Teach the "log" UI to behave in the same way as "git log --follow", when given a suitable instruction by the user. The default behaviour remains to show the log without following renames, but the follow behaviour can be activated by following a link in the page header. Follow is not the default because outputting merges in follow mode is tricky ("git log --follow" will not show merges). We also disable the graph in follow mode because the commit graph is not simplified so we end up with frequent gaps in the graph and many lines that do not connect with any commits we're actually showing. We also teach the "diff" and "commit" UIs to respect the follow flag on URLs, causing the single-file version of these UIs to detect renames. This feature is needed only for commits that rename the path we're interested in. For commits before the file has been renamed (i.e. that appear later in the log list) we change the file path in the links from the log to point to the old name; this means that links to commits always limit by the path known to that commit. If we didn't do this we would need to walk down the log diff'ing every commit whenever we want to show a commit. The drawback is that the "Log" link in the top bar of such a page links to the log limited by the old name, so it will only show pre-rename commits. I consider this a reasonable trade-off since the "Back" button still works and the log matches the path displayed in the top bar. Since following renames requires running diff on every commit we consider, I've added a knob to the configuration file to globally enable/disable this feature. Note that we may consider a large number of commits the revision walking machinery no longer performs any path limitation so we have to examine every commit until we find a page full of commits that affect the target path or something related to it.

CGITRC(5)
|
|
========

|
|
|
|
|
NAME
|
|
----
|
|
cgitrc - runtime configuration for cgit
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
Cgitrc contains all runtime settings for cgit, including the list of git
|
|
repositories, formatted as a line-separated list of NAME=VALUE pairs. Blank
|
|
lines, and lines starting with '#', are ignored.
|
|
|
|
|
|
LOCATION
|
|
--------
|
|
The default location of cgitrc, defined at compile time, is /etc/cgitrc. At
|
|
runtime, cgit will consult the environment variable CGIT_CONFIG and, if
|
|
defined, use its value instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
GLOBAL SETTINGS
|
|
---------------
|
|
about-filter::
|
|
Specifies a command which will be invoked to format the content of
|
|
about pages (both top-level and for each repository). The command will
|
|
get the content of the about-file on its STDIN, the name of the file
|
|
as the first argument, and the STDOUT from the command will be
|
|
included verbatim on the about page. Default value: none. See
|
|
also: "FILTER API".
|
|
|
|
agefile::
|
|
Specifies a path, relative to each repository path, which can be used
|

to specify the date and time of the youngest commit in the repository.
|
|
The first line in the file is used as input to the "parse_date"
|
|
function in libgit. Recommended timestamp-format is "yyyy-mm-dd
|
|
hh:mm:ss". You may want to generate this file from a post-receive
|
|
hook. Default value: "info/web/last-modified".

in commit view. Default value: "0". See also:
|
|
"repo.enable-subject-links".
|
|
|
|
enable-tree-linenumbers::
|

|
|
any repo specific settings. This option is used in conjunction with
|
|
"scan-path", and must be defined prior, to augment repo-specific
|
|
settings. The keys gitweb.owner, gitweb.category, and gitweb.description
|
|
will map to the cgit keys repo.owner, repo.section, and repo.desc,
|
|
respectively. All git config keys that begin with "cgit." will be mapped

|
value: none.
|
|
|
|
index-info::
|
|
The content of the file specified with this option will be included
|
|
verbatim below the heading on the repository index page. This setting

table. This can be used to link to additional context such as an
|
|
owners home page. When active this filter is used instead of the
|
|
default owner query url. Default value: none.
|
|
See also: "FILTER API".
|

|
|
|
|
mimetype-file::
|
|
Specifies the file to use for automatic mimetype lookup. If specified
|
|
then this field is used as a fallback when no "mimetype.<ext>" match is
|

|
|
A list of subdirectories inside of scan-path, relative to it, that
|
|
should loaded as git repositories. This must be defined prior to
|
|
scan-path. Default value: none. See also: scan-path, "MACRO
|
|
EXPANSION".
|
|
|
|
readme::
|
|
Text which will be used as default value for "repo.readme". Multiple
|
|
config keys may be specified, and cgit will use the first found file
|
|
in this list. This is useful in conjunction with scan-path. Default
|
|
value: none. See also: scan-path, repo.readme.
|
|
|
|
remove-suffix::
|
|
If set to "1" and scan-path is enabled, if any repositories are found
|
|
with a suffix of ".git", this suffix will be removed for the url and

|
name. This must be defined prior to scan-path. Default value: "0".
|
|
See also: scan-path.
|
|
|
|
renamelimit::
|
|
Maximum number of files to consider when detecting renames. The value
|

|
|
|
repository-sort::
|
|
The way in which repositories in each section are sorted. Valid values
|
|
are "name" for sorting by the repo name or "age" for sorting by the

|
|
"Git Repository Browser".
|
|
|
|
scan-hidden-path::
|
|
If set to "1" and scan-path is enabled, scan-path will recurse into
|
|
directories whose name starts with a period ('.'). Otherwise,
|
|
scan-path will stay away from such directories (considered as
|
|
"hidden"). Note that this does not apply to the ".git" directory in
|
|
non-bare repos. This must be defined prior to scan-path.
|
|
Default value: 0. See also: scan-path.
|
|
|
|
scan-path::
|
|
A path which will be scanned for repositories. If caching is enabled,
|
|
the result will be cached as a cgitrc include-file in the cache
|
|
directory. If project-list has been defined prior to scan-path,
|
|
scan-path loads only the directories listed in the file pointed to by
|
|
project-list. Be advised that only the global settings taken
|
|
before the scan-path directive will be applied to each repository.

|
after this option will inherit the current section name. Default value:
|
|
none.
|
|
|
|
section-sort::

Flag which, when set to "1", will sort the sections on the repository
|
|
listing by name. Set this flag to "0" if the order in the cgitrc file should
|
|
be preserved. Default value: "1". See also: section,
|
|
case-sensitive-sort, repository-sort.
|
|
|
|
section-from-path::
|
|
A number which, if defined prior to scan-path, specifies how many
|
|
path elements from each repo path to use as a default section name.
|
|
If negative, cgit will discard the specified number of path elements
|
|
above the repo directory. Default value: "0".
|
|
|
|
side-by-side-diffs::
|
|
If set to "1" shows side-by-side diffs instead of unidiffs per
|
|
default. Default value: "0".
|
|
|
|
snapshots::
|
|
Text which specifies the default set of snapshot formats that cgit
|
|
generates links for. The value is a space-separated list of zero or
|
|
more of the values "tar", "tar.gz", "tar.bz2", "tar.xz" and "zip".
|
|
Default value: none.
|
|
|
|
source-filter::
|
|
Specifies a command which will be invoked to format plaintext blobs
|
|
in the tree view. The command will get the blob content on its STDIN
|
|
and the name of the blob as its only command line argument. The STDOUT
|
|
from the command will be included verbatim as the blob contents, i.e.
|
|
this can be used to implement e.g. syntax highlighting. Default value:
|
|
none. See also: "FILTER API".
|
|
|
|
summary-branches::
|
|
Specifies the number of branches to display in the repository "summary"
|
|
view. Default value: "10".
|
|
|
|
summary-log::

|
summary-tags::
|
|
Specifies the number of tags to display in the repository "summary"
|
|
view. Default value: "10".
|
|
|
|
strict-export::
|
|
Filename which, if specified, needs to be present within the repository
|
|
for cgit to allow access to that repository. This can be used to emulate
|
|
gitweb's EXPORT_OK and STRICT_EXPORT functionality and limit cgit's
|
|
repositories to match those exported by git-daemon. This option must
|
|
be defined prior to scan-path.
|
|
|
|
virtual-root::
|
|
Url which, if specified, will be used as root for all cgit links. It
|
|
will also cause cgit to generate 'virtual urls', i.e. urls like
|
|
'/cgit/tree/README' as opposed to '?r=cgit&p=tree&path=README'. Default
|
|
value: none.
|
|
NOTE: cgit has recently learned how to use PATH_INFO to achieve the
|
|
same kind of virtual urls, so this option will probably be deprecated.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
with a colon, i.e. ":docs/readme.rst", the default branch of the
|
|
repository will be used. Sharing any file will expose that entire
|
|
directory tree to the "/about/PATH" endpoints, so be sure that there

|
|
file. Default value: <readme>.

|
REPOSITORY-SPECIFIC CGITRC FILE
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
When the option "scan-path" is used to auto-discover git repositories, cgit
|
|
will try to parse the file "cgitrc" within any found repository. Such a
|
|
repo-specific config file may contain any of the repo-specific options
|
|
described above, except "repo.url" and "repo.path". Additionally, the "filter"
|
|
options are only acknowledged in repo-specific config files when
|
|
"enable-filter-overrides" is set to "1".
|
|
|
|
Note: the "repo." prefix is dropped from the option names in repo-specific
|
|
config files, e.g. "repo.desc" becomes "desc".
|
|
|
|
|
|
FILTER API
|
|
----------
|
|
By default, filters are separate processes that are executed each time they
|
|
are needed. Alternative technologies may be used by prefixing the filter
|
|
specification with the relevant string; available values are:
|
|
|
|
'exec:'::
|
|
The default "one process per filter" mode.
|
|
|
|
'lua:'::
|
|
Executes the script using a built-in Lua interpreter. The script is
|
|
loaded once per execution of cgit, and may be called multiple times
|
|
during cgit's lifetime, making it a good choice for repeated filters
|
|
such as the 'email filter'. It responds to three functions:
|
|
|
|
'filter_open(argument1, argument2, argument3, ...)'::
|
|
This is called upon activation of the filter for a particular
|
|
set of data.
|
|
'filter_write(buffer)'::
|
|
This is called whenever cgit writes data to the webpage.
|
|
'filter_close()'::
|
|
This is called when the current filtering operation is
|
|
completed. It must return an integer value. Usually 0
|
|
indicates success.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, cgit exposes to the Lua the following built-in functions:
|
|
|
|
'html(str)'::
|
|
Writes 'str' to the webpage.
|
|
'html_txt(str)'::
|
|
HTML escapes and writes 'str' to the webpage.
|
|
'html_attr(str)'::
|
|
HTML escapes for an attribute and writes "str' to the webpage.
|
|
'html_url_path(str)'::
|
|
URL escapes for a path and writes 'str' to the webpage.
|
|
'html_url_arg(str)'::
|
|
URL escapes for an argument and writes 'str' to the webpage.
|
|
'html_include(file)'::
|
|
Includes 'file' in webpage.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Parameters are provided to filters as follows.
|
|
|
|
about filter::
|
|
This filter is given a single parameter: the filename of the source
|
|
file to filter. The filter can use the filename to determine (for
|
|
example) the type of syntax to follow when formatting the readme file.
|
|
The about text that is to be filtered is available on standard input
|
|
and the filtered text is expected on standard output.
|
|
|
|
commit filter::
|
|
This filter is given no arguments. The commit message text that is to
|
|
be filtered is available on standard input and the filtered text is
|
|
expected on standard output.
|
|
|
|
email filter::
|
|
This filter is given two parameters: the email address of the relevent
|
|
author and a string indicating the originating page. The filter will
|
|
then receive the text string to format on standard input and is
|
|
expected to write to standard output the formatted text to be included
|
|
in the page.
|
|
|
|
owner filter::
|
|
This filter is given no arguments. The owner text is avilable on
|
|
standard input and the filter is expected to write to standard
|
|
output. The output is included in the Owner column.
|
|
|
|
source filter::
|
|
This filter is given a single parameter: the filename of the source
|
|
file to filter. The filter can use the filename to determine (for
|
|
example) the syntax highlighting mode. The contents of the source
|
|
file that is to be filtered is available on standard input and the
|
|
filtered contents is expected on standard output.
|
|
|
|
auth filter::
|
|
The authentication filter receives 12 parameters:
|
|
- filter action, explained below, which specifies which action the
|
|
filter is called for
|
|
- http cookie
|
|
- http method
|
|
- http referer
|
|
- http path
|
|
- http https flag
|
|
- cgit repo
|
|
- cgit page
|
|
- cgit url
|
|
- cgit login url
|
|
When the filter action is "body", this filter must write to output the
|
|
HTML for displaying the login form, which POSTs to the login url. When
|
|
the filter action is "authenticate-cookie", this filter must validate
|
|
the http cookie and return a 0 if it is invalid or 1 if it is invalid,
|
|
in the exit code / close function. If the filter action is
|
|
"authenticate-post", this filter receives POST'd parameters on
|
|
standard input, and should write a complete CGI response, preferably
|
|
with a 302 redirect, and write to output one or more "Set-Cookie"
|
|
HTTP headers, each followed by a newline.
|
|
|
|
Please see `filters/simple-authentication.lua` for a clear example
|
|
script that may be modified.
|
|
|
|
|
|
All filters are handed the following environment variables:
|
|
|
|
- CGIT_REPO_URL (from repo.url)
|
|
- CGIT_REPO_NAME (from repo.name)
|
|
- CGIT_REPO_PATH (from repo.path)
|
|
- CGIT_REPO_OWNER (from repo.owner)
|
|
- CGIT_REPO_DEFBRANCH (from repo.defbranch)
|
|
- CGIT_REPO_SECTION (from repo.section)
|
|
- CGIT_REPO_CLONE_URL (from repo.clone-url)
|
|
|
|
If a setting is not defined for a repository and the corresponding global
|
|
setting is also not defined (if applicable), then the corresponding
|
|
environment variable will be unset.
|
|
|
|
|
|
MACRO EXPANSION
|
|
---------------
|
|
The following cgitrc options support a simple macro expansion feature,
|
|
where tokens prefixed with "$" are replaced with the value of a similarly
|
|
named environment variable:
|
|
|
|
- cache-root
|
|
- include
|
|
- project-list
|
|
- scan-path
|
|
|
|
Macro expansion will also happen on the content of $CGIT_CONFIG, if
|
|
defined.
|
|
|
|
One usage of this feature is virtual hosting, which in its simplest form
|
|
can be accomplished by adding the following line to /etc/cgitrc:
|
|
|
|
include=/etc/cgitrc.d/$HTTP_HOST
|
|
|
|
The following options are expanded during request processing, and support
|
|
the environment variables defined in "FILTER API":
|
|
|
|
- clone-url
|
|
- repo.clone-url
|
|
|
|
|
|
CACHE
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
All cache ttl values are in minutes. Negative ttl values indicate that a page
|
|
type will never expire, and thus the first time a URL is accessed, the result
|
|
will be cached indefinitely, even if the underlying git repository changes.
|
|
Conversely, when a ttl value is zero, the cache is disabled for that
|
|
particular page type, and the page type is never cached.
|
|
|
|
|
|
