6 git-daemon - A really simple server for GIT repositories.
10 'git-daemon' [--inetd | --port=n]
14 A really simple TCP git daemon that normally listens on port "DEFAULT_GIT_PORT"
15 aka 9418. It waits for a connection, and will just execute "git-upload-pack"
18 It's careful in that there's a magic request-line that gives the command and
19 what directory to upload, and it verifies that the directory is ok.
21 It verifies that the directory has the magic file "git-daemon-export-ok", and
22 it will refuse to export any git directory that hasn't explicitly been marked
25 This is ideally suited for read-only updates, ie pulling from git repositories.
30 Have the server run as an inetd service.
33 Listen on an alternative port.
