DESCRIPTION
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
A really simple TCP Git daemon that normally listens on port "DEFAULT_GIT_PORT"
|
||||
aka 9418. It waits for a connection asking for a service, and will serve
|
||||
that service if it is enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
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 (unless the `--export-all` parameter is specified). If you
|
||||
pass some directory paths as 'git daemon' arguments, the offers are limited to
|
||||
repositories within those directories.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, only `upload-pack` service is enabled, which serves
|
||||
'git fetch-pack' and 'git ls-remote' clients, which are invoked
|
||||
from 'git fetch', 'git pull', and 'git clone'.
|
||||
|
||||
This is ideally suited for read-only updates, i.e., pulling from
|
||||
Git repositories.
|
||||
|
||||
An `upload-archive` also exists to serve 'git archive'.
|
||||
|
||||
OPTIONS
|
||||
-------
|
||||
--strict-paths::
|
||||
Match paths exactly (i.e. don't allow "/foo/repo" when the real path is
|
||||
"/foo/repo.git" or "/foo/repo/.git") and don't do user-relative paths.
|
||||
'git daemon' will refuse to start when this option is enabled and no
|
||||
directory arguments are provided.
|
||||
|
||||
--base-path=<path>::
|
||||
Remap all the path requests as relative to the given path.
|
||||
This is sort of "Git root" - if you run 'git daemon' with
|
||||
'--base-path=/srv/git' on example.com, then if you later try to pull
|
||||
'git://example.com/hello.git', 'git daemon' will interpret the path
|
||||
as `/srv/git/hello.git`.
|
||||
|
||||
--base-path-relaxed::
|
||||
If --base-path is enabled and repo lookup fails, with this option
|
||||
'git daemon' will attempt to lookup without prefixing the base path.
|
||||
This is useful for switching to --base-path usage, while still
|
||||
allowing the old paths.
|
||||
|
||||
--interpolated-path=<pathtemplate>::
|
||||
To support virtual hosting, an interpolated path template can be
|
||||
used to dynamically construct alternate paths. The template
|
||||
supports %H for the target hostname as supplied by the client but
|
||||
converted to all lowercase, %CH for the canonical hostname,
|
||||
%IP for the server's IP address, %P for the port number,
|
||||
and %D for the absolute path of the named repository.
|
||||
After interpolation, the path is validated against the directory
|
||||
list.
|
||||
|
||||
--export-all::
|
||||
Allow pulling from all directories that look like Git repositories
|
||||
(have the 'objects' and 'refs' subdirectories), even if they
|
||||
do not have the 'git-daemon-export-ok' file.
|
||||
|
||||
--inetd::
|
||||
Have the server run as an inetd service. Implies --syslog (may be
|
||||
overridden with `--log-destination=`).
|
||||
Incompatible with --detach, --port, --listen, --user and --group
|
||||
options.
|
||||
|
||||
--listen=<host-or-ipaddr>::
|
||||
Listen on a specific IP address or hostname. IP addresses can
|
||||
be either an IPv4 address or an IPv6 address if supported. If IPv6
|
||||
is not supported, then --listen=<hostname> is also not supported and
|
||||
--listen must be given an IPv4 address.
|
||||
Can be given more than once.
|
||||
Incompatible with `--inetd` option.
|
||||
|
||||
--port=<n>::
|
||||
Listen on an alternative port. Incompatible with `--inetd` option.
|
||||
|
||||
--init-timeout=<n>::
|
||||
Timeout (in seconds) between the moment the connection is established
|
||||
and the client request is received (typically a rather low value, since
|
||||
that should be basically immediate).
|
||||
|
||||
--timeout=<n>::
|
||||
Timeout (in seconds) for specific client sub-requests. This includes
|
||||
the time it takes for the server to process the sub-request and the
|
||||
time spent waiting for the next client's request.
|
||||
|
||||
--max-connections=<n>::
|
||||
Maximum number of concurrent clients, defaults to 32. Set it to
|
||||
zero for no limit.
|
||||
|
||||
--syslog::
|
||||
Short for `--log-destination=syslog`.
|
||||
|
||||
--log-destination=<destination>::
|
||||
Send log messages to the specified destination.
|
||||
Note that this option does not imply --verbose,
|
||||
thus by default only error conditions will be logged.
|
||||
The <destination> must be one of:
|
||||
+
|
||||
--
|
||||
stderr::
|
||||
Write to standard error.
|
||||
Note that if `--detach` is specified,
|
||||
the process disconnects from the real standard error,
|
||||
making this destination effectively equivalent to `none`.
|
||||
syslog::
|
||||
Write to syslog, using the `git-daemon` identifier.
|
||||
none::
|
||||
Disable all logging.
|
||||
--
|
||||
+
|
||||
The default destination is `syslog` if `--inetd` or `--detach` is specified,
|
||||
otherwise `stderr`.
|
||||
|
||||
--user-path::
|
||||
--user-path=<path>::
|
||||
Allow {tilde}user notation to be used in requests. When
|
||||
specified with no parameter, a request to
|
||||
git://host/{tilde}alice/foo is taken as a request to access
|
||||
'foo' repository in the home directory of user `alice`.
|
||||
If `--user-path=<path>` is specified, the same request is
|
||||
taken as a request to access `<path>/foo` repository in
|
||||
the home directory of user `alice`.
|
||||
|
||||
--verbose::
|
||||
Log details about the incoming connections and requested files.
|
||||
|
||||
--reuseaddr::
|
||||
Use SO_REUSEADDR when binding the listening socket.
|
||||
This allows the server to restart without waiting for
|
||||
old connections to time out.
|
||||
|
||||
--detach::
|
||||
Detach from the shell. Implies --syslog.
|
||||
|
||||
--pid-file=<file>::
|
||||
Save the process id in 'file'. Ignored when the daemon
|
||||
is run under `--inetd`.
|
||||
|
||||
--user=<user>::
|
||||
--group=<group>::
|
||||
Change daemon's uid and gid before entering the service loop.
|
||||
When only `--user` is given without `--group`, the
|
||||
primary group ID for the user is used. The values of
|
||||
the option are given to `getpwnam(3)` and `getgrnam(3)`
|
||||
and numeric IDs are not supported.
|
||||
+
|
||||
Giving these options is an error when used with `--inetd`; use
|
||||
the facility of inet daemon to achieve the same before spawning
|
||||
'git daemon' if needed.
|
||||
+
|
||||
Like many programs that switch user id, the daemon does not reset
|
||||
environment variables such as `$HOME` when it runs git programs,
|
||||
e.g. `upload-pack` and `receive-pack`. When using this option, you
|
||||
may also want to set and export `HOME` to point at the home
|
||||
directory of `<user>` before starting the daemon, and make sure any
|
||||
Git configuration files in that directory are readable by `<user>`.
|
||||
|
||||
--enable=<service>::
|
||||
--disable=<service>::
|
||||
Enable/disable the service site-wide per default. Note
|
||||
that a service disabled site-wide can still be enabled
|
||||
per repository if it is marked overridable and the
|
||||
repository enables the service with a configuration
|
||||
item.
|
||||
|
||||
--allow-override=<service>::
|
||||
--forbid-override=<service>::
|
||||
Allow/forbid overriding the site-wide default with per
|
||||
repository configuration. By default, all the services
|
||||
may be overridden.
|
||||
|
||||
--[no-]informative-errors::
|
||||
When informative errors are turned on, git-daemon will report
|
||||
more verbose errors to the client, differentiating conditions
|
||||
like "no such repository" from "repository not exported". This
|
||||
is more convenient for clients, but may leak information about
|
||||
the existence of unexported repositories. When informative
|
||||
errors are not enabled, all errors report "access denied" to the
|
||||
client. The default is --no-informative-errors.
|
||||
|
||||
--access-hook=<path>::
|
||||
Every time a client connects, first run an external command
|
||||
specified by the <path> with service name (e.g. "upload-pack"),
|
||||
path to the repository, hostname (%H), canonical hostname
|
||||
(%CH), IP address (%IP), and TCP port (%P) as its command-line
|
||||
arguments. The external command can decide to decline the
|
||||
service by exiting with a non-zero status (or to allow it by
|
||||
exiting with a zero status). It can also look at the $REMOTE_ADDR
|
||||
and `$REMOTE_PORT` environment variables to learn about the
|
||||
requestor when making this decision.
|
||||
+
|
||||
The external command can optionally write a single line to its
|
||||
standard output to be sent to the requestor as an error message when
|
||||
it declines the service.
|
||||
|
||||
<directory>::
|
||||
The remaining arguments provide a list of directories. If any
|
||||
directories are specified, then the `git-daemon` process will
|
||||
serve a requested directory only if it is contained in one of
|
||||
these directories. If `--strict-paths` is specified, then the
|
||||
requested directory must match one of these directories exactly.
|
||||
|
||||
SERVICES
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
These services can be globally enabled/disabled using the
|
||||
command-line options of this command. If finer-grained
|
||||
control is desired (e.g. to allow 'git archive' to be run
|
||||
against only in a few selected repositories the daemon serves),
|
||||
the per-repository configuration file can be used to enable or
|
||||
disable them.
|
||||
|
||||
upload-pack::
|
||||
This serves 'git fetch-pack' and 'git ls-remote'
|
||||
clients. It is enabled by default, but a repository can
|
||||
disable it by setting `daemon.uploadpack` configuration
|
||||
item to `false`.
|
||||
|
||||
upload-archive::
|
||||
This serves 'git archive --remote'. It is disabled by
|
||||
default, but a repository can enable it by setting
|
||||
`daemon.uploadarch` configuration item to `true`.
|
||||
|
||||
receive-pack::
|
||||
This serves 'git send-pack' clients, allowing anonymous
|
||||
push. It is disabled by default, as there is _no_
|
||||
authentication in the protocol (in other words, anybody
|
||||
can push anything into the repository, including removal
|
||||
of refs). This is solely meant for a closed LAN setting
|
||||
where everybody is friendly. This service can be
|
||||
enabled by setting `daemon.receivepack` configuration item to
|
||||
`true`.
|
||||
|
||||
EXAMPLES
|
||||
--------
|
||||
We assume the following in /etc/services::
|
||||
+
|
||||
------------
|
||||
$ grep 9418 /etc/services
|
||||
git 9418/tcp # Git Version Control System
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
'git daemon' as inetd server::
|
||||
To set up 'git daemon' as an inetd service that handles any
|
||||
repository within `/pub/foo` or `/pub/bar`, place an entry like
|
||||
the following into `/etc/inetd` all on one line:
|
||||
+
|
||||
------------------------------------------------
|
||||
git stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/bin/git
|
||||
git daemon --inetd --verbose --export-all
|
||||
/pub/foo /pub/bar
|
||||
------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
'git daemon' as inetd server for virtual hosts::
|
||||
To set up 'git daemon' as an inetd service that handles
|
||||
repositories for different virtual hosts, `www.example.com`
|
||||
and `www.example.org`, place an entry like the following into
|
||||
`/etc/inetd` all on one line:
|
||||
+
|
||||
------------------------------------------------
|
||||
git stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/bin/git
|
||||
git daemon --inetd --verbose --export-all
|
||||
--interpolated-path=/pub/%H%D
|
||||
/pub/www.example.org/software
|
||||
/pub/www.example.com/software
|
||||
/software
|
||||
------------------------------------------------
|
||||
+
|
||||
In this example, the root-level directory `/pub` will contain
|
||||
a subdirectory for each virtual host name supported.
|
||||
Further, both hosts advertise repositories simply as
|
||||
`git://www.example.com/software/repo.git`. For pre-1.4.0
|
||||
clients, a symlink from `/software` into the appropriate
|
||||
default repository could be made as well.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
'git daemon' as regular daemon for virtual hosts::
|
||||
To set up 'git daemon' as a regular, non-inetd service that
|
||||
handles repositories for multiple virtual hosts based on
|
||||
their IP addresses, start the daemon like this:
|
||||
+
|
||||
------------------------------------------------
|
||||
git daemon --verbose --export-all
|
||||
--interpolated-path=/pub/%IP/%D
|
||||
/pub/192.168.1.200/software
|
||||
/pub/10.10.220.23/software
|
||||
------------------------------------------------
|
||||
+
|
||||
In this example, the root-level directory `/pub` will contain
|
||||
a subdirectory for each virtual host IP address supported.
|
||||
Repositories can still be accessed by hostname though, assuming
|
||||
they correspond to these IP addresses.
|
||||
|
||||
selectively enable/disable services per repository::
|
||||
To enable 'git archive --remote' and disable 'git fetch' against
|
||||
a repository, have the following in the configuration file in the
|
||||
repository (that is the file 'config' next to `HEAD`, 'refs' and
|
||||
'objects').
|
||||
+
|
||||
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
[daemon]
|
||||
uploadpack = false
|
||||
uploadarch = true
|
||||
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
ENVIRONMENT
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
'git daemon' will set REMOTE_ADDR to the IP address of the client
|
||||
that connected to it, if the IP address is available. REMOTE_ADDR will
|
||||
be available in the environment of hooks called when
|
||||
services are performed.
