<h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>A really simple TCP Git daemon that normally listens on port "DEFAULT_GIT_PORT"
aka 9418. It waits for a connection asking for a service, and will serve
that service if it is enabled.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>It verifies that the directory has the magic file "git-daemon-export-ok", and
it will refuse to export any Git directory that hasn’t explicitly been marked
for export this way (unless the <code>--export-all</code> parameter is specified). If you
pass some directory paths as <em>git daemon</em> arguments, the offers are limited to
repositories within those directories.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>By default, only <code>upload-pack</code> service is enabled, which serves
<em>git fetch-pack</em> and <em>git ls-remote</em> clients, which are invoked
from <em>git fetch</em>, <em>git pull</em>, and <em>git clone</em>.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This is ideally suited for read-only updates, i.e., pulling from
Git repositories.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>An <code>upload-archive</code> also exists to serve <em>git archive</em>.</p></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_options">OPTIONS</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="dlist"><dl>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--strict-paths
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Match paths exactly (i.e. don’t allow "/foo/repo" when the real path is
"/foo/repo.git" or "/foo/repo/.git") and don’t do user-relative paths.
<em>git daemon</em> will refuse to start when this option is enabled and no
directory arguments are provided.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--base-path=<path>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Remap all the path requests as relative to the given path.
This is sort of "Git root" - if you run <em>git daemon</em> with
<em>--base-path=/srv/git</em> on example.com, then if you later try to pull
<em>git://example.com/hello.git</em>, <em>git daemon</em> will interpret the path
as <code>/srv/git/hello.git</code>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--base-path-relaxed
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
If --base-path is enabled and repo lookup fails, with this option
<em>git daemon</em> will attempt to lookup without prefixing the base path.
This is useful for switching to --base-path usage, while still
allowing the old paths.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--interpolated-path=<pathtemplate>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
To support virtual hosting, an interpolated path template can be
used to dynamically construct alternate paths. The template
supports %H for the target hostname as supplied by the client but
converted to all lowercase, %CH for the canonical hostname,
%IP for the server’s IP address, %P for the port number,
and %D for the absolute path of the named repository.
After interpolation, the path is validated against the directory
list.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--export-all
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Allow pulling from all directories that look like Git repositories
(have the <em>objects</em> and <em>refs</em> subdirectories), even if they
do not have the <em>git-daemon-export-ok</em> file.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--inetd
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Have the server run as an inetd service. Implies --syslog (may be
overridden with <code>--log-destination=</code>).
Incompatible with --detach, --port, --listen, --user and --group
options.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--listen=<host-or-ipaddr>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Listen on a specific IP address or hostname. IP addresses can
be either an IPv4 address or an IPv6 address if supported. If IPv6
is not supported, then --listen=<hostname> is also not supported and
--listen must be given an IPv4 address.
Can be given more than once.
Incompatible with <code>--inetd</code> option.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--port=<n>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Listen on an alternative port. Incompatible with <code>--inetd</code> option.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--init-timeout=<n>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Timeout (in seconds) between the moment the connection is established
and the client request is received (typically a rather low value, since
that should be basically immediate).
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--timeout=<n>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Timeout (in seconds) for specific client sub-requests. This includes
the time it takes for the server to process the sub-request and the
time spent waiting for the next client’s request.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--max-connections=<n>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Maximum number of concurrent clients, defaults to 32. Set it to
zero for no limit.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--syslog
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Short for <code>--log-destination=syslog</code>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--log-destination=<destination>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Send log messages to the specified destination.
Note that this option does not imply --verbose,
thus by default only error conditions will be logged.
The <destination> must be one of:
</p>
<div class="openblock">
<div class="content">
<div class="dlist"><dl>
<dt class="hdlist1">
stderr
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Write to standard error.
Note that if <code>--detach</code> is specified,
the process disconnects from the real standard error,
making this destination effectively equivalent to <code>none</code>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
syslog
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Write to syslog, using the <code>git-daemon</code> identifier.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
none
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Disable all logging.
</p>
</dd>
</dl></div>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The default destination is <code>syslog</code> if <code>--inetd</code> or <code>--detach</code> is specified,
otherwise <code>stderr</code>.</p></div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--user-path
</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--user-path=<path>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Allow ~user notation to be used in requests. When
specified with no parameter, a request to
git://host/~alice/foo is taken as a request to access
<em>foo</em> repository in the home directory of user <code>alice</code>.
If <code>--user-path=<path></code> is specified, the same request is
taken as a request to access <code><path>/foo</code> repository in
the home directory of user <code>alice</code>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--verbose
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Log details about the incoming connections and requested files.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--reuseaddr
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Use SO_REUSEADDR when binding the listening socket.
This allows the server to restart without waiting for
old connections to time out.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--detach
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Detach from the shell. Implies --syslog.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--pid-file=<file>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Save the process id in <em>file</em>. Ignored when the daemon
is run under <code>--inetd</code>.

Change daemon’s uid and gid before entering the service loop.
When only <code>--user</code> is given without <code>--group</code>, the
primary group ID for the user is used. The values of
the option are given to <code>getpwnam(3)</code> and <code>getgrnam(3)</code>
and numeric IDs are not supported.
</p>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Giving these options is an error when used with <code>--inetd</code>; use
the facility of inet daemon to achieve the same before spawning
<em>git daemon</em> if needed.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Like many programs that switch user id, the daemon does not reset
environment variables such as <code>$HOME</code> when it runs git programs,
e.g. <code>upload-pack</code> and <code>receive-pack</code>. When using this option, you
may also want to set and export <code>HOME</code> to point at the home
directory of <code><user></code> before starting the daemon, and make sure any
Git configuration files in that directory are readable by <code><user></code>.</p></div>

<p>
Enable/disable the service site-wide per default. Note
that a service disabled site-wide can still be enabled
per repository if it is marked overridable and the
repository enables the service with a configuration
item.

<dt class="hdlist1">
--[no-]informative-errors
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
When informative errors are turned on, git-daemon will report
more verbose errors to the client, differentiating conditions
like "no such repository" from "repository not exported". This
is more convenient for clients, but may leak information about
the existence of unexported repositories. When informative
errors are not enabled, all errors report "access denied" to the
client. The default is --no-informative-errors.
</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">
--access-hook=<path>
</dt>
<dd>
<p>
Every time a client connects, first run an external command
specified by the <path> with service name (e.g. "upload-pack"),
path to the repository, hostname (%H), canonical hostname
(%CH), IP address (%IP), and TCP port (%P) as its command-line
arguments. The external command can decide to decline the
service by exiting with a non-zero status (or to allow it by
exiting with a zero status). It can also look at the $REMOTE_ADDR
and <code>$REMOTE_PORT</code> environment variables to learn about the
requestor when making this decision.
</p>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The external command can optionally write a single line to its
standard output to be sent to the requestor as an error message when
it declines the service.</p></div>

<p>
The remaining arguments provide a list of directories. If any
directories are specified, then the <code>git-daemon</code> process will
serve a requested directory only if it is contained in one of
these directories. If <code>--strict-paths</code> is specified, then the
requested directory must match one of these directories exactly.
