 git-daemon(1) Manual Page
 </h1>
 <h2>NAME</h2>
 <div class="sectionbody">
 <p>git-daemon -
  A really simple server for git repositories
 </p>
 </div>
 </div>
 <h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
 <div class="sectionbody">
 <div class="verseblock">
 <div class="content"><em>git-daemon</em> [--verbose] [--syslog] [--inetd | --port=n] [--export-all]
  [--timeout=n] [--init-timeout=n] [--strict-paths]
  [--base-path=path] [--user-path | --user-path=path]
  [directory&#8230;]</div></div>
 </div>
 <h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
 <div class="sectionbody">
 <p>A really simple TCP git daemon that normally listens on port "DEFAULT_GIT_PORT"
 aka 9418. It waits for a connection, and will just execute "git-upload-pack"
 when it gets one.</p>
 <p>It's careful in that there's a magic request-line that gives the command and
 what directory to upload, and it verifies that the directory is OK.</p>
 <p>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 <em>--export-all</em> parameter is specified). If you
 pass some directory paths as <em>git-daemon</em> arguments, you can further restrict
 the offers to a whitelist comprising of those.</p>
 <p>This is ideally suited for read-only updates, i.e., pulling from git repositories.</p>
 </div>
 <h2>OPTIONS</h2>
 <div class="sectionbody">
 <dl>
 <dt>
 --strict-paths
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  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
  whitelist is specified.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 --base-path
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  Remap all the path requests as relative to the given path.
  This is sort of "GIT root" - if you run git-daemon with
  <em>--base-path=/srv/git</em> on example.com, then if you later try to pull
  <em>git://example.com/hello.git</em>, <tt>git-daemon</tt> will interpret the path
  as <em>/srv/git/hello.git</em>.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 --export-all
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  Allow pulling from all directories that look like GIT repositories
  (have the <em>objects</em> and <em>refs</em> subdirectories), even if they
  do not have the <em>git-daemon-export-ok</em> file.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 --inetd
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  Have the server run as an inetd service. Implies --syslog.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 --port
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  Listen on an alternative port.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 --init-timeout
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  Timeout between the moment the connection is established and the
  client request is received (typically a rather low value, since
  that should be basically immediate).
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 --timeout
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  Timeout for specific client sub-requests. This includes the time
  it takes for the server to process the sub-request and time spent
  waiting for next client's request.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 --syslog
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  Log to syslog instead of stderr. Note that this option does not imply
  --verbose, thus by default only error conditions will be logged.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 --user-path, --user-path=path
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  Allow ~user notation to be used in requests. When
  specified with no parameter, requests to
  git://host/~alice/foo is taken as a request to access
  <em>foo</em> repository in the home directory of user <tt>alice</tt>.
  If <tt>--user-path=path</tt> is specified, the same request is
  taken as a request to access <tt>path/foo</tt> repository in
  the home directory of user <tt>alice</tt>.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 --verbose
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  Log details about the incoming connections and requested files.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 &lt;directory&gt;
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  A directory to add to the whitelist of allowed directories. Unless
  --strict-paths is specified this will also include subdirectories
  of each named directory.
 </p>
 </dd>
 </dl>
