The 'clean' target is still noticeably slow on cygwin, despite the improvements made by previous patches. For example, the second invocation of 'make clean' below: $ make clean >/dev/null 2>&1 $ make clean ... make[1]: Entering directory '/home/ramsay/git/gitweb' make[2]: Entering directory '/home/ramsay/git' make[2]: 'GIT-VERSION-FILE' is up to date. make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/ramsay/git' ... $ has been timed at 10.361s on my laptop (an old core i5-4200M @ 2.50GHz, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD). Notice that the 'clean' target is making a nested call to the parent Makefile to ensure that the GIT-VERSION-FILE is up-to-date. This is to ensure that the $(GIT_VERSION) make variable is set, once that file had been included. However, the 'clean' target does not use the $(GIT_VERSION) variable, directly or indirectly, so it does not have any affect on what the target removes. Therefore, the time spent on ensuring an up to date GIT-VERSION-FILE is wasted effort. In order to eliminate such wasted effort, use the value of the internal $(MAKECMDGOALS) variable to only '-include ../GIT-VERSION-FILE' when the target is not 'clean'. (This drops the time down to 8.430s, on my laptop, giving an improvement of 18.64%). Signed-off-by: Ramsay Jones <ramsay@ramsayjones.plus.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> |

GIT web Interface ================= From the git version 1.4.0 gitweb is bundled with git. Build time gitweb configuration ------------------------------- There are many configuration variables which affect building gitweb (among others creating gitweb.cgi out of gitweb.perl by replacing placeholders such as `++GIT_BINDIR++` by their build-time values). Building and installing gitweb is described in gitweb's INSTALL file (in 'gitweb/INSTALL'). Runtime gitweb configuration ---------------------------- Gitweb obtains configuration data from the following sources in the following order: 1. built-in values (some set during build stage), 2. common system-wide configuration file (`GITWEB_CONFIG_COMMON`, defaults to '/etc/gitweb-common.conf'), 3. either per-instance configuration file (`GITWEB_CONFIG`, defaults to 'gitweb_config.perl' in the same directory as the installed gitweb), or if it does not exists then system-wide configuration file (`GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM`, defaults to '/etc/gitweb.conf'). Values obtained in later configuration files override values obtained earlier in above sequence. You can read defaults in system-wide GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM from GITWEB_CONFIG by adding read_config_file($GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM); at very beginning of per-instance GITWEB_CONFIG file. In this case settings in said per-instance file will override settings from system-wide configuration file. Note that read_config_file checks itself that the $GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM file exists. The most notable thing that is not configurable at compile time are the optional features, stored in the '%features' variable. Ultimate description on how to reconfigure the default features setting in your `GITWEB_CONFIG` or per-project in `project.git/config` can be found as comments inside 'gitweb.cgi'. See also gitweb.conf(5) manpage. Web server configuration ------------------------ Gitweb can be run as CGI script, as legacy mod_perl application (using ModPerl::Registry), and as FastCGI script. You can find some simple examples in "Example web server configuration" section in INSTALL file for gitweb (in gitweb/INSTALL). See "Webserver configuration" and "Advanced web server setup" sections in gitweb(1) manpage.
