=======================================
First you have to generate gitweb.cgi from gitweb.perl using
-"make gitweb/gitweb.cgi", then copy appropriate files (gitweb.cgi,
-gitweb.css, git-logo.png and git-favicon.png) to their destination.
-For example if git was (or is) installed with /usr prefix, you can do
+"make gitweb", then "make install-gitweb" appropriate files
+(gitweb.cgi, gitweb.js, gitweb.css, git-logo.png and git-favicon.png)
+to their destination. For example if git was (or is) installed with
+/usr prefix and gitwebdir is /var/www/cgi-bin, you can do
- $ make prefix=/usr gitweb/gitweb.cgi ;# as yourself
- # cp gitweb/git* /var/www/cgi-bin/ ;# as root
+ $ make prefix=/usr gitweb ;# as yourself
+ # make gitwebdir=/var/www/cgi-bin install-gitweb ;# as root
Alternatively you can use autoconf generated ./configure script to
set up path to git binaries (via config.mak.autogen), so you can write
$ make configure ;# as yourself
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr ;# as yourself
- $ make gitweb/gitweb.cgi ;# as yourself
- # cp gitweb/git* /var/www/cgi-bin/ ;# as root
+ $ make gitweb ;# as yourself
+ # make gitwebdir=/var/www/cgi-bin \
+ install-gitweb ;# as root
The above example assumes that your web server is configured to run
[executable] files in /var/www/cgi-bin/ as server scripts (as CGI
- There are many configuration variables which affect building of
gitweb.cgi; see "default configuration for gitweb" section in main
- (top dir) Makefile, and instructions for building gitweb/gitweb.cgi
- target.

One of the most important is where to find the git wrapper binary. Gitweb
tries to find the git wrapper at $(bindir)/git, so you have to set $bindir
a suggestion).
- You can control where gitweb tries to find its main CSS style file,
- its favicon and logo with the GITWEB_CSS, GITWEB_FAVICON and GITWEB_LOGO
- build configuration variables. By default gitweb tries to find them
- in the same directory as gitweb.cgi script.

+
+- You can optionally generate minified versions of gitweb.js and gitweb.css
+ by defining the JSMIN and CSSMIN build configuration variables. By default
+ the non-minified versions will be used. NOTE: if you enable this option,
+ substitute gitweb.min.js and gitweb.min.css for all uses of gitweb.js and
+ gitweb.css in the help files.
