This page contains a comprehensive guide to setting up cgit on NearlyFreeSpeech. It is assumed that you already have an account with NFS and also have access to a "site" online.
Most of the following has been lifted from [NearlyFreeSpeech cgit application walkthrough](https://members.nearlyfreespeech.net/wiki/Applications/Cgit) but has been tweaked and updated.
You can see a **live version** [here](https://git.btxx.org).
## Building cgit
The following assumes that you wish to have cgit running at the top-level of your chosen domain (ie. git.example.com)
SSH into your account then download and unpack the latest release:
git clone git://git.zx2c4.com/cgit cgit-src
cd cgit-src
Create a cgit.conf file with desired locations:
CGIT_SCRIPT_PATH = /home/public
CGIT_DATA_PATH = $(CGIT_SCRIPT_PATH)
CGIT_CONFIG = $(CGIT_SCRIPT_PATH)/cgitrc
CACHE_ROOT = $(CGIT_SCRIPT_PATH)/cgitcache
prefix = $(CGIT_SCRIPT_PATH)/local
Get the git sources (needed to build libgit):
git submodule init
git submodule update
Build and install it:
gmake install
## Configuration
Make a text file named `cgitrc` where you specified CGIT_CONFIG and add the following (these are some personal defaults to make things cleaner):
logo=/cgit.png
root-title=main root title
root-desc=description for your git server
root-readme=/home/public/about.md
virtual-root=/
about-filter=/home/public/cgit-src/filters/about-formatting.sh
readme=:README.md
readme=:README
include=/home/protected/cgitrepos
Then in the specified file (`cgitrepos`), place your repos, ex:
repo.url=MyRepo
repo.path=/home/public/MyRepo.git
repo.desc=This is my git repository
**And you should be good to go!**
