"max-blob-size" config var to limit generated HTML size

Sometimes it is not feasible to generate the HTML pretty-print for large
files, especially if a source-filter is involved or binary data is to be
displayed. The "max-blob-size" config var allows to disable HTML output
for blobs bigger than X KBytes. Plain downloads are not affected.

 CGITRC(5)
 ========
 
 
 NAME
 ----
 cgitrc - runtime configuration for cgit
 
 
 SYNOPSIS
 --------
 Cgitrc contains all runtime settings for cgit, including the list of git
 repositories, formatted as a line-separated list of NAME=VALUE pairs. Blank
 lines, and lines starting with '#', are ignored.
 
 
 LOCATION
 --------
 The default location of cgitrc, defined at compile time, is /etc/cgitrc. At
 runtime, cgit will consult the environment variable CGIT_CONFIG and, if
 defined, use its value instead.
 
 
 GLOBAL SETTINGS
 ---------------
 about-filter::
         Specifies a command which will be invoked to format the content of
         about pages (both top-level and for each repository). The command will
         get the content of the about-file on its STDIN, and the STDOUT from the
         command will be included verbatim on the about page. Default value:
         none.
 
 agefile::
         Specifies a path, relative to each repository path, which can be used
         to specify the date and time of the youngest commit in the repository.
         The first line in the file is used as input to the "parse_date"
         function in libgit. Recommended timestamp-format is "yyyy-mm-dd
         hh:mm:ss". Default value: "info/web/last-modified".
 
 cache-root::
         Path used to store the cgit cache entries. Default value:
         "/var/cache/cgit".
 
 cache-dynamic-ttl::
         Number which specifies the time-to-live, in minutes, for the cached
         version of repository pages accessed without a fixed SHA1. Default
         value: "5".
 
 cache-repo-ttl::
         Number which specifies the time-to-live, in minutes, for the cached
         version of the repository summary page. Default value: "5".
 
 cache-root-ttl::
         Number which specifies the time-to-live, in minutes, for the cached
         version of the repository index page. Default value: "5".
 
 cache-scanrc-ttl::
         Number which specifies the time-to-live, in minutes, for the result
         of scanning a path for git repositories. Default value: "15".
 
 cache-size::
         The maximum number of entries in the cgit cache. Default value: "0"
         (i.e. caching is disabled).
 
 cache-static-ttl::
         Number which specifies the time-to-live, in minutes, for the cached
         version of repository pages accessed with a fixed SHA1. Default value:
         "5".
 
 clone-prefix::
         Space-separated list of common prefixes which, when combined with a
         repository url, generates valid clone urls for the repository. This
         setting is only used if `repo.clone-url` is unspecified. Default value:
         none.
 
 commit-filter::
         Specifies a command which will be invoked to format commit messages.
         The command will get the message on its STDIN, and the STDOUT from the
         command will be included verbatim as the commit message, i.e. this can
         be used to implement bugtracker integration. Default value: none.
 
 css::
         Url which specifies the css document to include in all cgit pages.
         Default value: "/cgit.css".
 
 embedded::
         Flag which, when set to "1", will make cgit generate a html fragment
         suitable for embedding in other html pages. Default value: none. See
         also: "noheader".
         
 enable-filter-overrides::
         Flag which, when set to "1", allows all filter settings to be
         overridden in repository-specific cgitrc files. Default value: none.
 
 enable-index-links::
         Flag which, when set to "1", will make cgit generate extra links for
         each repo in the repository index (specifically, to the "summary",
         "commit" and "tree" pages). Default value: "0".
 
 enable-log-filecount::
         Flag which, when set to "1", will make cgit print the number of
         modified files for each commit on the repository log page. Default
         value: "0".
 
 enable-log-linecount::
         Flag which, when set to "1", will make cgit print the number of added
         and removed lines for each commit on the repository log page. Default
         value: "0".
 
 enable-tree-linenumbers::
         Flag which, when set to "1", will make cgit generate linenumber links
         for plaintext blobs printed in the tree view. Default value: "1".
 
 favicon::
         Url used as link to a shortcut icon for cgit. If specified, it is
         suggested to use the value "/favicon.ico" since certain browsers will

         value: none.
 
 index-info::
         The content of the file specified with this option will be included
         verbatim below the heading on the repository index page. This setting

         directory. Default value: none. See also: cache-scanrc-ttl.
 
 section::
         The name of the current repository section - all repositories defined
         after this option will inherit the current section name. Default value:
         none.
 
 snapshots::
         Text which specifies the default set of snapshot formats generated by
         cgit. The value is a space-separated list of zero or more of the
         values "tar", "tar.gz", "tar.bz2" and "zip". Default value: none.
 
 source-filter::
         Specifies a command which will be invoked to format plaintext blobs
         in the tree view. The command will get the blob content on its STDIN
         and the name of the blob as its only command line argument. The STDOUT
         from the command will be included verbatim as the blob contents, i.e.
         this can be used to implement e.g. syntax highlighting. Default value:

 virtual-root::
         Url which, if specified, will be used as root for all cgit links. It
         will also cause cgit to generate 'virtual urls', i.e. urls like
         '/cgit/tree/README' as opposed to '?r=cgit&p=tree&path=README'. Default
         value: none.
         NOTE: cgit has recently learned how to use PATH_INFO to achieve the
         same kind of virtual urls, so this option will probably be deprecated.
 
 REPOSITORY SETTINGS

         setting specified for each repo. Default value: none.
 
 
 REPOSITORY-SPECIFIC CGITRC FILE
 -------------------------------
 When the option "scan-path" is used to auto-discover git repositories, cgit
 will try to parse the file "cgitrc" within any found repository. Such a
 repo-specific config file may contain any of the repo-specific options
 described above, except "repo.url" and "repo.path". Additionally, the "filter"
 options are only acknowledged in repo-specific config files when
 "enable-filter-overrides" is set to "1".
 
 Note: the "repo." prefix is dropped from the option names in repo-specific
 config files, e.g. "repo.desc" becomes "desc".

 BUGS
 ----
 Comments currently cannot appear on the same line as a setting; the comment
 will be included as part of the value. E.g. this line:
 
         robots=index  # allow indexing
 
 will generate the following html element:
 
         <meta name='robots' content='index  # allow indexing'/>
