NAME
       git-instaweb - Instantly browse your working repository in gitweb

SYNOPSIS
       git instaweb [--local] [--httpd=<httpd>] [--port=<port>]
		      [--browser=<browser>]
       git instaweb [--start] [--stop] [--restart]

DESCRIPTION
       A  simple  script  to  set  up 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  apache2,
	      lighttpd, mongoose, plackup and webrick are supported. (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	 that  should be used to view the gitweb page.
	      This will be passed to the git web--browse helper	 script	 along
	      with  the URL of the gitweb instance. See git-web--browse(1) for
	      more information about this. If the script fails, the  URL  will
	      be printed to stdout.

       start, --start
	      Start the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any of
	      the configuration files for spawning a new instance.

       stop, --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
	      Restart the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate  any
	      of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.

CONFIGURATION
       You may specify configuration in your .git/config

       .ft C
       [instaweb]
	       local = true
	       httpd = apache2 -f
	       port = 4321
	       browser = konqueror
	       modulepath = /usr/lib/apache2/modules
       .ft

       If  the configuration variable instaweb.browser is not set, web.browser
       will be used instead if it is defined. See git-web--browse(1) for  more
       information about this.
