A patch [1] has been proposed in the past, but was never merged. +A few years later there was a short discussion at [2] which did not go +anywhere. + +The majority of users who want to support the "smart" HTTP protocol +right now seem to conditionally point their web server to +git-http-backend(1) directly. This relies on proper path-matching and +regular expression support in the web server as seen in the EXMAPLES +section of git-http-backend(1). + +As proposed in [3], it is possible to have cgit interface with the +necessary functionality in Git directly, but that would require more +work. It does not seem that this is something forthcoming in cgit. + +Instead, for now, use a modified version of the patch suggested in [1], +which simply executes git-http-backend(1) when needed. This removes the +need for any additional plumbing in the web server. + +Notable changes to the original patch: + + * Remove automatic handling of GIT_PROJECT_ROOT in favour of having the + user set the variable correctly themselves. This reduces complexity. + + * Use the correct function to generate error pages. The original patch + used html_status(), which does not exist anymore. + + * In cmd.c, adjust the struct entries to fit. Sadly we cannot use the + def_cmd() macro directly, as the endpoints "git-upload-pack" and + "git-receive-pack" contain dashes. + +[1] https://lists.zx2c4.com/pipermail/cgit/2014-December/002312.html +[2] https://lists.zx2c4.com/pipermail/cgit/2016-February/002907.html +[3] https://lists.zx2c4.com/pipermail/cgit/2016-February/002926.html +--- + cgit.c | 3 +++ + cgit.h | 1 + + cgitrc.5.txt | 8 ++++++++ + cmd.c | 13 +++++++++++++ + ui-clone.c | 42 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ + ui-clone.h | 2 ++ + 6 files changed, 69 insertions(+) + +diff --git a/cgit.c b/cgit.c +index c4320f0..fc85c18 100644 +--- a/cgit.c ++++ b/cgit.c +@@ -151,6 +151,8 @@ static void config_cb(const char *name, const char *value) + ctx.cfg.head_include = xstrdup(value); + else if (!strcmp(name, "header")) + ctx.cfg.header = xstrdup(value); ++ else if (!strcmp(name, "http-backend-path")) ++ ctx.cfg.http_backend_path = xstrdup(value); + else if (!strcmp(name, "logo")) + ctx.cfg.logo = xstrdup(value); + else if (!strcmp(name, "logo-link")) +@@ -379,6 +381,7 @@ static void prepare_context(void) + ctx.cfg.css = "/cgit.css"; + ctx.cfg.logo = "/cgit.png"; + ctx.cfg.favicon = "/favicon.ico"; ++ ctx.cfg.http_backend_path = NULL; + ctx.cfg.local_time = 0; + ctx.cfg.enable_http_clone = 1; + ctx.cfg.enable_index_owner = 1; +diff --git a/cgit.h b/cgit.h +index 7ec46b4..cd29892 100644 +--- a/cgit.h ++++ b/cgit.h +@@ -200,6 +200,7 @@ struct cgit_config { + char *footer; + char *head_include; + char *header; ++ char *http_backend_path; + char *logo; + char *logo_link; + char *mimetype_file; +diff --git a/cgitrc.5.txt b/cgitrc.5.txt +index 33a6a8c..820cfa6 100644 +--- a/cgitrc.5.txt ++++ b/cgitrc.5.txt +@@ -234,6 +234,11 @@ header:: + The content of the file specified with this option will be included + verbatim at the top of all pages.
