I think you should enable caching in your apache config. I know I should -- but I'm hoping to find the time to rework gitweb a bit to actually work fast instead. It bothers me that it is so slow on a basically idle machine, and where I can perform the corresponding git operations in the commandline in a blink. And caching is great for really busy sites (aka kernel.org) but git.catalyst.net.nz only serves a handful of small repos for a small group of people, and is 99% idle.

Yep, large projects often have good reasons to run custom imports, merging certain commits, rewriting log messages (like the X.org guys were doing). It can be done at the cvsimport stage or later -- I think Pasky has a rewritehistory tool hidden somewhere in Cogito, but I haven't used it. cheers, martin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.htmlReceived on Wed May 31 11:05:22 2006
