The point of these sections is generally to:
1. Give credit where it is due.
2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or
file bug reports.
But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they
are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer
can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the
correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you
wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and
incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody
useless.
So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except
git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list
for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section
to give credit to the major contributors and point to
shortlog and blame for more information.
Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can
follow that to the main git manpage.

DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
A simple script to set up `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 apache2, lighttpd, mongoose, plackup 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 that should be used to view the gitweb
|
|
page. This will be passed to the 'git web{litdd}browse' helper
|
|
script along with the URL of the gitweb instance. See
|
|
linkgit:git-web{litdd}browse[1] for more information about this. If
|
|
the script fails, the URL will be printed to stdout.
|
|
|
|
start::
|
|
--start::
|
|
Start the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate
|
|
any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.
|
|
|
|
stop::
|
|
--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::
|
|
Restart the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate
|
|
any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.
