+> \# chown git:git git
+> \# mv stagit-fork/* git
+> \# cd git
+> \# sudo make clean install + +*** + +### 2) Setup website. +> \# cd htmldir
+> \# sh example_create.sh + +Your static stagit website should be generated for you! Check by going to git.yourdomain.com. + +*** +### 3) Next you want to set up ownership, links, and descriptions for stagiit to display + +Descriptions +> \# This is my git repo > /srv/git/yourrepo.git/description + +URL +> \# git://yourdomain.com/yourrepo.git > /srv/git/yourrepo.git/url + +Owner +> \# owner > /srv/git/yourrepo.git/owner + +Update stagit +> \# sh /var/www/git/htmldir/example_create.sh + +Now repete for all of your repos till all is correct! + +*** + +### 3) Now you want it so stagit updates whenever there is an update, thankfully for you I have modified the script to work whenever a git commit is made! +> \# cp /var/www/git/example_post-receive.sh /srv/git /srv/git/yourgitrepo.git/hooks/post-receive + +Now whenever you push a commit everything should update! + +*** + +# Overview +I hope this guide has helped you setup a kool git server!
