cgit to replace gitweb?

2009-02-13 Thread seth vidal
Hi folks,
 In the last day I set up cgit as a replacement for gitweb. It's only in
testing right now. You can see it here:

http://hosted2.fedoraproject.org/cgit/

I'd like to see it replace gitweb as our web-based git repo browser.
However, it will mean the urls from gitweb won't work anymore for fairly
obvious reasons. 

cgit is substantially faster than gitweb and appears to be much lighter
on resources, too.

I'd like to get some feedback on the negatives/positives to swapping
gitweb for cgit.

Thanks,
-sv

I've often put direct gitweb links in bugzilla as a pointer to
particular changesets for people to use/try/refer to. I'm probably not
the only one that has done that.

Do we have a count of hits on gitweb with referrers outside of gitweb?

We can look but if people ask for it would we just give them the new
location?

Well, a URL that was:

 /git/?p=initscripts.git;a=commitdiff;h=252c7c1bf9779dbdba94abe47350c866ba8ca421

is now (in the test instance):

 /cgit/initscripts.git/commit/?id=252c7c1bf9779dbdba94abe47350c866ba8ca421

We may be able to do a rewriterule?

for the simple cases, sure. I doubt we'll be able to do all the
tag/branch cases easily..

How about the old location is kept intact for a while while we attempt 
to gain some statistics on it's usage?

Ultimatly I'd like whatever we use to be available at /git/ since thats
how it is with all the other protocols (ssh, rsync, git://)
