Hello,
I am a newbie in git technology, please bear with me. I am interested to implement git over http along with gitweb.

At first I have already created a demo git repository in the server , After restating apache I can see gitweb at http://192.168.1.1/gitweb Here is the apache related configuration

``````````````` Alias /gitweb /var/gitdir/ RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^gitweb$ gitweb/ [R] SetEnv GITWEB_CONFIG /etc/gitweb.conf

<Directory "/var/gitdir/"> AllowOverride AuthConfig Options +ExecCGI +Indexes Order allow,deny Allow from all DirectoryIndex gitweb.cgi SetEnv GITWEB_CONFIG "/etc/gitweb.conf" AddHandler cgi-script .cgi </Directory> ``````````````````````````

webdav is successfully running in this server for some other project. I have setup webdav for git like

````````` <IfModule mod_dav_svn.c> <Location /myproject.git> Dav on AuthType Basic AuthName "My repo with git" AuthUserFile /home/svn/PASSWORD <Limitexcept GET HEAD PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT> Require valid-user </Limitexcept> </Location> </IfModule> ```````````````

Now testing with cadaver

````````````````` cadaver https://192.168.1.1/gitweb/test.git

Authentication required for Write access requires a password on server `192.168.1.1':
Username: svnadmin
Password:
Could not open collection:
404 Not Found
``````````````````````
I think there are some configuration problem which can't find the correct location/path. Could anyone kindly enlighten me, actually where the problem is ? Here is /etc/gitweb.conf

```````````````````````` $feature{'blame'}{'default'} = [undef]; $feature{'pickaxe'}{'default'} = [undef]; $feature{'search'}{'default'} = [undef]; $feature{'grep'}{'default'} = 1; $feature{'snapshot'}{'default'} = ['tgz', 'gzip', 'zip']; $feature{'snapshot'}{'override'} = 1;

# path to git projects (<project>.git) $projectroot = "/home/git";

# directory to use for temp files $git_temp = "/tmp";

$projects_list = $projectroot; $export_ok = ""; $strict_export = "true";

$site_name = "The Average Geek's Git Repo"; $fallback_encoding = 'utf-8'; @stylesheets = ("gitweb.css"); $projects_list_description_width = 50; ``````````````````````````````````

Thanks for your time
