-git-arr - A git repository browser
-----------------------------------
-
-git-arr is a git repository browser that can generate static HTML instead of
-having to run dynamically.
-
-It is smaller, with less features and a different set of tradeoffs than
-other similar software, so if you're looking for a robust and featureful git
-browser, please look at gitweb or cgit instead.
-
-However, if you want to generate static HTML at the expense of features, then
-it's probably going to be useful.
-
-It's open source under the MIT licence, please see the LICENSE file for more
-information.
-
-
-Getting started
----------------
-
-You will need Python, and the bottle.py framework (the package is usually
-called python-bottle in most distributions).
-
-If pygments is available, it will be used for syntax highlighting, otherwise
-everything will work fine, just in black and white.
-
-
-First, create a configuration file for your repositories. You can start by
-copying sample.conf, which has the list of the available options.
-
-Then, to generate the output to "/var/www/git-arr/" directory, run:
-
- $ ./git-arr --config config.conf generate --output /var/www/git-arr/
-
-That's it!
-
-The first time you generate, depending on the size of your repositories, it
-can take some time. Subsequent runs should take less time, as it is smart
-enough to only generate what has changed.
-
-
-You can also use git-arr dynamically, although it's not its intended mode of
-use, by running:
-
- $ ./git-arr --config config.conf serve
-
-That can be useful when making changes to the software itself.
