------------------------------
This package enables a git-daemon service. This allows people to use a
git:// URL to access your repositories.
After installing this package, the daemon needs to be enabled in
/etc/default/git-daemon by setting:
GIT_DAEMON_ENABLE=false
to:
GIT_DAEMON_ENABLE=true
After that, the git daemon can be started with:
# /etc/init.d/git-daemon start
The git daemon by default looks into the directory /var/lib/git/ for
repositories (this is configured in /etc/default/git-daemon). It expects
the repositories' .git subdirectories in that directory, symlinks
pointing to the corresponding subdirectories in the repositories are just
fine, e.g.:
ln -s ~daniel/git/foo/.git /var/lib/git/foo.git
This makes 'git-clone git://git.example.org/git/foo' to clone the foo
repository on remote machines work.
