NAME

git-instaweb - Instantly browse your working repository in gitweb

SYNOPSIS

 git-instaweb [--local] [--httpd=<httpd>] [--port=<port>]
                [--browser=<browser>]
 git-instaweb [--start] [--stop] [--restart]
 

DESCRIPTION

A simple script to setup gitweb and a web server for browsing the local repository.

OPTIONS

-l|--local

Only bind the web server to the local IP (127.0.0.1).

-d|--httpd

The HTTP daemon command-line that will be executed. Command-line options may be specified here, and the configuration file will be added at the end of the command-line. Currently lighttpd, apache2 and webrick are supported. (Default: lighttpd)

-m|--module-path

The module path (only needed if httpd is Apache). (Default: /usr/lib/apache2/modules)

-p|--port

The port number to bind the httpd to. (Default: 1234)

-b|--browser

The web browser command-line to execute to view the gitweb page. If blank, the URL of the gitweb instance will be printed to stdout. (Default: firefox)

--start

Start the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.

--stop

Stop the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance, nor does it close the browser.

--restart

Restart the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.

CONFIGURATION

You may specify configuration in your .git/config

 
 .ft C
 [instaweb]
         local = true
         httpd = apache2 -f
         port = 4321
         browser = konqueror
         modulepath = /usr/lib/apache2/modules
 
 .ft
 
 

If the configuration variable instaweb.browser is not set, web.browser will be used instead if it is defined.
