It is lightweight and doesn't require a database or web authentication system. - -It's easy to configure. For some reason, all the online guides for Ubuntu decided they needed to compile it from scratch and write their own start scripts in a mix of perl and bash.

Install `cgit` and `fcgiwrap`. - -`fcgiwrap` will create a socket NGINX can use to pass the CGI variables to cGit: -``` -sudo apt install fcgiwrap -sudo apt install cgit -``` - -### 2. Modify the `cgitrc` file under `/etc/cgitrc` to your liking: -``` -# See cgitrc(5) -# prepend this string to every url -virtual-root=/ -enable-index-links=1 -enable-commit-graph=1 - -root-title=My Git Repos -root-desc=I exclusivly write code in Smalltalk-71 -logo=/assets/my_custom_logo.png - -# Add site-specific configuration -# ... - -``` - -### 3. Optionally create an assets directory and add your custom logo / css: -``` -mkdir /var/www/html/assets -cp my_custom_logo.png /var/www/html/assets -``` - -### 4. Configure NGINX - -Add the site to NGINX. This launches the `cgit.cgi` executable passing it to the `fcgiwrap` socket: -```conf -echo >/etc/nginx/sites-available/cgit.conf <
