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-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. css Url which specifies the css document to include in all cgit pages. Default value: "/cgit.css". 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". 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 ignore other values. Default value: none. footer The content of the file specified with this option will be included verbatim at the bottom of all pages (i.e. it replaces the standard "generated by..." message. Default value: none. header The content of the file specified with this option will be included verbatim at the top of all pages. Default value: none. include Name of a configfile to include before the rest of the current config- file is parsed. Default value: none. index-header The content of the file specified with this option will be included verbatim above the repository index. This setting is deprecated, and will not be supported by cgit-1.0 (use root-readme instead). Default 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 is deprecated, and will not be supported by cgit-1.0 (use root-desc instead). Default value: none. local-time Flag which, if set to "1", makes cgit print commit and tag times in the servers timezone. Default value: "0". logo Url which specifies the source of an image which will be used as a logo on all cgit pages. logo-link Url loaded when clicking on the cgit logo image. If unspecified the calculated url of the repository index page will be used. Default value: none. max-commit-count Specifies the number of entries to list per page in "log" view. Default value: "50". max-message-length Specifies the maximum number of commit message characters to display in "log" view. Default value: "80". max-repo-count Specifies the number of entries to list per page on the repository index page. Default value: "50". max-repodesc-length Specifies the maximum number of repo description characters to display on the repository index page. Default value: "80". max-stats Set the default maximum statistics period. Valid values are "week", "month", "quarter" and "year". If unspecified, statistics are disabled. Default value: none. See also: "repo.max-stats". module-link Text which will be used as the formatstring for a hyperlink when a submodule is printed in a directory listing. The arguments for the formatstring are the path and SHA1 of the submodule commit. Default value: "./?repo=%s&page=commit&id=%s" nocache If set to the value "1" caching will be disabled. This settings is deprecated, and will not be honored starting with cgit-1.0. Default value: "0". renamelimit Maximum number of files to consider when detecting renames. The value "-1" uses the compiletime value in git (for further info, look at `man git-diff`). Default value: "-1". repo.group A value for the current repository group, which all repositories specified after this setting will inherit. Default value: none. robots Text used as content for the "robots" meta-tag. Default value: "index, nofollow". root-desc Text printed below the heading on the repository index page. Default value: "a fast webinterface for the git dscm". root-readme: The content of the file specified with this option will be included verbatim below the "about" link on the repository index page. Default value: none. root-title Text printed as heading on the repository index page. Default value: "Git Repository Browser". snapshots Text which specifies the default (and allowed) set of snapshot formats supported by cgit. The value is a space-separated list of zero or more of the following values: "tar" uncompressed tar-file "tar.gz" gzip-compressed tar-file "tar.bz2" bzip-compressed tar-file "zip" zip-file Default value: none. summary-branches Specifies the number of branches to display in the repository "summary" view. Default value: "10". summary-log Specifies the number of log entries to display in the repository "summary" view. Default value: "10". summary-tags Specifies the number of tags to display in the repository "summary" view. Default value: "10". 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 ------------------- repo.clone-url A list of space-separated urls which can be used to clone this repo. Default value: none. repo.defbranch The name of the default branch for this repository. If no such branch exists in the repository, the first branch name (when sorted) is used as default instead. Default value: "master". repo.desc The value to show as repository description. Default value: none. repo.enable-log-filecount A flag which can be used to disable the global setting `enable-log-filecount'. Default value: none. repo.enable-log-linecount A flag which can be used to disable the global setting `enable-log-linecount'. Default value: none. repo.max-stats Override the default maximum statistics period. Valid values are equal to the values specified for the global "max-stats" setting. Default value: none. repo.name The value to show as repository name. Default value: . repo.owner A value used to identify the owner of the repository. Default value: none. repo.path An absolute path to the repository directory. For non-bare repositories this is the .git-directory. Default value: none. repo.readme A path (relative to ) which specifies a file to include verbatim as the "About" page for this repo. Default value: none. repo.snapshots A mask of allowed snapshot-formats for this repo, restricted by the "snapshots" global setting. Default value: . repo.url The relative url used to access the repository. This must be the first setting specified for each repo. Default value: none.
