Runtime configuration
The file /etc/cgitrc is read by cgit before handling a request. In addition
-to runtime parameters, this file also contains a list of the repositories
-displayed by cgit.
-
-A template cgitrc is shipped with the sources, and all parameters and default
-values are documented in this file.
+to runtime parameters, this file may also contain a list of repositories
+displayed by cgit (see cgitrc.5.txt for further 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
file is returned.
If the cachefile has expired but cgit is unable to obtain a lock for it, the
stale cachefile is returned to the client. This is done to favour page
throughput over page freshness.
The generated content contains the complete response to the client, including
the http-headers "Modified" and "Expires".
-The missing features
-
-* Submodule links in the directory listing page have a fixed format per
- repository. This should probably be extended to a generic map between
- submodule path and url.
-
-* The log-page should have more/better search options (author, committer,
- pickaxe, paths) and possibly support arbitrary revision specifiers.
+Online presence
-* A set of test-scripts is required before cgit-1.0 can be released.
+* The cgit homepage is hosted by cgit at http://hjemli.net/git/cgit/about
-Patches/bugreports/suggestions/comments are always welcome, please feel free
-to contact the author: hjemli@gmail.com
+* Patches, bugreports, discussions and support should go to the cgit
+ mailing list: cgit@hjemli.net
