| git-daemon(1) |
| ============= |
| |
| NAME |
| ---- |
| git-daemon - A really simple server for GIT repositories. |
| |
| SYNOPSIS |
| -------- |
| 'git-daemon' [--verbose] [--syslog] [--inetd | --port=n] |
| |
| DESCRIPTION |
| ----------- |
| A really simple TCP git daemon that normally listens on port "DEFAULT_GIT_PORT" |
| aka 9418. It waits for a connection, and will just execute "git-upload-pack" |
| when it gets one. |
| |
| It's careful in that there's a magic request-line that gives the command and |
| what directory to upload, and it verifies that the directory is ok. |
| |
| It verifies that the directory has the magic file "git-daemon-export-ok", and |
| it will refuse to export any git directory that hasn't explicitly been marked |
| for export this way. |
| |
| This is ideally suited for read-only updates, ie pulling from git repositories. |
| |
| OPTIONS |
| ------- |
| --inetd:: |
| Have the server run as an inetd service. |
| |
| --port:: |
| Listen on an alternative port. |
| |
| --syslog:: |
| Log to syslog instead of stderr. Note that this option does not imply |
| --verbose, thus by default only error conditions will be logged. |
| |
| --verbose:: |
| Log details about the incoming connections and requested files. |
