git-daemon enabled on kernel.org

After getting gitweb behind mod_cache, the load on kernel.org has gotten 
down into the tolerable range, so I have enabled git-daemon in an 
attempt to fix that :)

The URL, obviously, is git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/...

(or, to specify a specific server, git1.kernel.org or git2.kernel.org.)

I consider this experimental so far, and if it imposes an unacceptable 
load I'll have to disable it.  It currently runs with an inetd-imposed 
limits of 10 instances per server.

How do I tell git to change the default repository to pull from?

Do you mean cg-branch-add perhaps? Afaik there is no real 'default' repository, but
the branches you specified. So adding a new branch will fix what you want.

Easy, depending on how old your repository either edit 
.git/branches/origin or .git/remotes/origin.  They contain the current 
default, just change it to the new one.  E.g. my .git/remotes/origin for 
Linux-2.6 repository is:

URL: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
Pull: master:origin

Best regards,

With cogito, you want "cg-branch-chg origin".

Dear diary, on Tue, Oct 18, 2005 at 09:30:23PM CEST, I got a letter
where "H. Peter Anvin" [off-list ref] told me that...

I consider this experimental so far, and if it imposes an unacceptable 
load I'll have to disable it.  It currently runs with an inetd-imposed 
limits of 10 instances per server.

I'm curious - how well does it do wrt. the load so far? Do you have any
statistics about the number of users and how CPU-intensive is it?

Thanks,

I have a simple statistics to contribute out of my head. A while ago (when 
people complained about gitweb.cgi taking too much load), a simple pull 
where my local repo was up-to-date took about 4 seconds. Now it takes just 
1 second.

I choose to believe that this is a sign of not too much load.
