Summary: please do git for homepages - it's is easier than cvs for homepages Project: Savannah Administration Submitted by: samjam Submitted on: Wed 08 Jun 2011 18:59:26 GMT Category: Project homepages Priority: 5 - Normal Severity: 3 - Normal Status: None Assigned to: None Originator Email: s...@liddicott.com Operating System: None Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any _______________________________________________________ Details: know you only do CVS to manage homepages, but git is simpler; see this URL: http://repo.or.cz/w/newfangle.git/blob_plain/1638dc03995f5879f0c4c8aeaac117f4fe1f5dfa:/www/docs/literate/literate.html As long as the git-web management tool can serve up blobs with the right mime type (based on extension?) then it IS a webserver. As you can see from that URL I had been using repo.or.cz as a web server for the project, and git repo.or.cz maintainer does the same thing. However the equivalent URL for Savannah only emits a text mime-type in the http response header: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/newfangle.git/plain/www/index.html But that's all that needs changing - have a new handler instead of /plain/ maybe call it /mime/ and make it pick the mime type from the /etc/mime.types file based on the extension in the final part of the URL _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?107716> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
