DESCRIPTION
A simple script to set up 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

plackup and webrick are supported. (Default: lighttpd)

-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
Start the httpd instance and exit. Regenerate
configuration files as necessary for spawning a new
instance.
stop, --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
