Dear list,

My gitweb has been running since long with a single project root, which has been defined at the /etc/gitweb.conf through $projectroot variable.

I need one more project root for gitweb, hence I have added this apache config ( not a vhost, but just calling by alias)

````````````````````
 
SetEnv GIT_PROJECT_ROOT /home/newgit/
SetEnv GIT_HTTP_EXPORT_ALL
SetEnv  GITWEB_CONFIG  /home/newgit/gitweb.conf
#git is strict about the authenticated SSL certificate only
#disable the strict CA certificate check
SetEnv GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY 
AliasMatch ^/newgit/(.*/objects/[0-9a-f]{2}/[0-9a-f]{38})$       /home/newgit/$1
AliasMatch ^/newgit/(.*/objects/pack/pack-[0-9a-f]{40}.(pack|idx))$ /home/newgit/$1
ScriptAliasMatch \
        "(?x)^/newgit/(.*/(HEAD | \
                        info/refs | \
                        objects/info/[^/]+ | \
                        git-(upload|receive)-pack))$" \
        /usr/lib/git-core/git-http-backend/$1

#same location for gitweb Alias /newgit /usr/share/gitweb <Directory /usr/share/gitweb> Options FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI AddHandler cgi-script .cgi </Directory>

#force https and authentication <LocationMatch "/newgit"> # Require SSL connection for password protection. SSLRequireSSL AuthType Basic # Message to give to the committer AuthName "access requires a password" # File listing users with write (commit) access AuthUserFile /home/newgit/PASSWD Require valid-user </LocationMatch>

`````````````````````````````````````````SetEnv

But "SetEnv GITWEB_CONFIG" as well as other SetEnv ( like SetEnv GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY ) is not been taken and as an effect the gitweb processing the default /etc/gitweb.conf and going to the old projectroot.

What am I missing here ? any clue ?
Thanks
