DESCRIPTION
-----------
A simple script to setup gitweb and a web server for browsing the local
repository.
OPTIONS
-------
-l|--local::
Only bind the web server to the local IP (127.0.0.1).
-d|--httpd::
The HTTP daemon command-line that will be executed.
Command-line options may be specified here, and the
configuration file will be added at the end of the command-line.
Currently, lighttpd and apache2 are the only supported servers.
(Default: lighttpd)
-m|--module-path::
The module path (only needed if httpd is Apache).
(Default: /usr/lib/apache2/modules)
-p|--port::
The port number to bind the httpd to. (Default: 1234)
-b|--browser::
The web browser command-line to execute to view the gitweb page.
If blank, the URL of the gitweb instance will be printed to
stdout. (Default: 'firefox')
--start::
Start the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate
any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.
--stop::
Stop the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate
any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance,
nor does it close the browser.
--restart::
Restart the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate
any of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.
