Wouldn't it be a good idea to somehow make this work well together with
the --user-path feature of git-daemon?
Perhaps the recommended name given in the example shouldn't be ~/gitweb,
but more like ~/public_git, as this is like ~/public_html but for git
repositories. Then the end users will browse
As I said, it's configuration :)
Wrong answer.
Exactly because it is configurable, the document that outlines the
recommended practice should suggest the best convention. My point was
that it is likely to be tied to "git"-ness of the specified directory
under $HOME/, not limited to "gitweb"-ness, and it is wrong to recommend a
name tied to "gitweb"-ness in this document.
