DESCRIPTION
-----------
A really simple TCP git daemon that normally listens on port "DEFAULT_GIT_PORT"
-aka 9418. It waits for a connection, and will just execute "git-upload-pack"
-when it gets one.
-
-It's careful in that there's a magic request-line that gives the command and
-what directory to upload, and it verifies that the directory is OK.
+aka 9418. It waits for a connection asking for a service, and will serve
+that service if it is enabled.
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
pass some directory paths as 'git-daemon' arguments, you can further restrict
the offers to a whitelist comprising of those.
-This is ideally suited for read-only updates, i.e., pulling from git repositories.
+By default, only `upload-pack` service is enabled, which serves
+`git-fetch-pack` and `git-peek-remote` clients that are invoked
+from `git-fetch`, `git-ls-remote`, and `git-clone`.
+
+This is ideally suited for read-only updates, i.e., pulling from
+git repositories.
OPTIONS
-------
the facility of inet daemon to achieve the same before spawning
`git-daemon` if needed.
+--enable-service, --disable-service::
+ 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 an configuration
+ item.
+
+--allow-override, --forbid-override::
+ Allow/forbid overriding the site-wide default with per
+ repository configuration. By default, all the services
+ are overridable.
+
<directory>::
A directory to add to the whitelist of allowed directories. Unless
--strict-paths is specified this will also include subdirectories
of each named directory.
+SERVICES
+--------
+
+upload-pack::
+ This serves `git-fetch-pack` and `git-peek-remote`
+ clients. It is enabled by default, but a repository can
+ disable it by setting `daemon.uploadpack` configuration
+ item to `false`.
