 section::
         The name of the current repository section - all repositories defined
         after this option will inherit the current section name. Default value:

+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.
+
 side-by-side-diffs::
         If set to "1" shows side-by-side diffs instead of unidiffs per
         default. Default value: "0".
