NAME
       git-instaweb - Instantly browse your working repository in gitweb

SYNOPSIS
       git-instaweb [--local] [--httpd=<httpd>] [--port=<port>]
		      [--browser=<browser>]
       git-instaweb [--start] [--stop] [--restart]

DESCRIPTION
       A simple script to setup gitweb and a web server for browsing the local
       repository.

OPTIONS
       -l|--local
	      Only bind the web server to the local IP (127.0.0.1).

       -d|--httpd
	      The HTTP daemon command-line that will be executed. Command-line
	      options may be specified here, and the configuration file will
	      be added at the end of the command-line. Currently lighttpd,
	      apache2 and webrick are supported. (Default: lighttpd)

       -m|--module-path
	      The module path (only needed if httpd is Apache). (Default:
	      /usr/lib/apache2/modules)

       -p|--port
	      The port number to bind the httpd to. (Default: 1234)

       -b|--browser
	      The web browser that should be used to view the gitweb page.
	      This will be passed to the git-web--browse helper script along
	      with the URL of the gitweb instance. See git-web--browse(1) for
	      more information about this. If the script fails, the URL will
	      be printed to stdout.

       --start
	      Start the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any of
	      the configuration files for spawning a new instance.

       --stop Stop the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any of
	      the configuration files for spawning a new instance, nor does it
	      close the browser.

       --restart
	      Restart the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any
	      of the configuration files for spawning a new instance.

CONFIGURATION
       You may specify configuration in your .git/config

       [instaweb]
	       local = true
	       httpd = apache2 -f
	       port = 4321
	       browser = konqueror
	       modulepath = /usr/lib/apache2/modules

       If the configuration variable instaweb.browser is not set, web.browser
       will be used instead if it is defined. See git-web--browse(1) for more
       information about this.
