 	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.

 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

 section::
 	The name of the current repository section - all repositories defined
 	after this option will inherit the current section name. Default value:
 	none.
 
 section-from-path::
 	A number which, if specified before 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.
