Frequently Asked Questions
|
||||
==========================
|
||||
|
||||
(Coming soon)
|
||||
* I'm using the "scan-path" option, but cgit doesn't find my repo
|
||||
|
||||
* This is most likely due to permission problems: cgit usually runs under
|
||||
your webserver user account and will need read access to your repo (and
|
||||
all of the parent directories)
|
||||
|
||||
* My repo shows up in the list of repositories, but when clicking the
|
||||
repo name, cgit complains that it's "Not a git repository"
|
||||
|
||||
* The most common cause of this is permission problems - see the previous
|
||||
faq entry for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
* The second most common cause is that you've set repo.path to point
|
||||
at the working-directory of your git repo - it should point at the
|
||||
$GITDIR, i.e. the .git directory.
|
||||
|
||||
* A less likely cause is that the repo is, infact, not a valid repo. Try
|
||||
to run a 'git show' in the offending repo to see if git also reports
|
||||
about problems.
