система управления исходным кодом Mercurial (Mercurial source code management system)
CONFIGURING HGWEB
Mercurial's internal web server, hgweb, can serve either a single
repository, or a tree of repositories. In the second case,
repository paths and global options can be defined using a
dedicated configuration file common to hg serve, hgweb.wsgi,
hgweb.cgi and hgweb.fcgi.
This file uses the same syntax as other Mercurial configuration
files but recognizes only the following sections:
• web
• paths
• collections
The web options are thoroughly described in hg help config.
The paths section maps URL paths to paths of repositories in the
filesystem. hgweb will not expose the filesystem directly - only
Mercurial repositories can be published and only according to the
configuration.
The left hand side is the path in the URL. Note that hgweb
reserves subpaths like rev or file, try using different names for
nested repositories to avoid confusing effects.
The right hand side is the path in the filesystem. If the
specified path ends with * or ** the filesystem will be searched
recursively for repositories below that point. With * it will
not recurse into the repositories it finds (except for
.hg/patches). With ** it will also search inside repository
working directories and possibly find subrepositories.
In this example:
[paths]
/projects/a = /srv/tmprepos/a
/projects/b = c:/repos/b
/ = /srv/repos/*
/user/bob = /home/bob/repos/**
• The first two entries make two repositories in different
directories appear under the same directory in the web
interface
• The third entry will publish every Mercurial repository found
in /srv/repos/, for instance the repository /srv/repos/quux/
will appear as http://server/quux/
• The fourth entry will publish both http://server/user/bob/quux/
and http://server/user/bob/quux/testsubrepo/
The collections section is deprecated and has been superseded by
paths.
