From d01c600c179593a53162a9d4e3040ecfc5078fdc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ferry Huberts Date: Tue, 19 Jul 2011 10:51:58 +0200 Subject: ui_plain: automatically lookup mimetype when mimetype-file is set For sites that do not want to configure mime types by hand but still want the correct mime type for 'plain' blobs, configuring a mime type file is made possible. This is handy since such a file is normally already provided (at least on Linux systems). Also, this reflects the gitweb option '$mimetypes_file' Signed-off-by: Ferry Huberts Signed-off-by: Lars Hjemli --- cgitrc.5.txt | 11 +++++++++++ 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+) (limited to 'cgitrc.5.txt') diff --git a/cgitrc.5.txt b/cgitrc.5.txt index 4721c1e..22a0dc3 100644 --- a/cgitrc.5.txt +++ b/cgitrc.5.txt @@ -226,6 +226,17 @@ mimetype.:: Set the mimetype for the specified filename extension.
