Subject: Set up cgit with git-http-backend properly
Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2022 12:40:28 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ygufsjm77tv.fsf@netpanic.org> (raw)
Hello!
Lately I've been running a cgit instance serving a local Guix channel
with my own personal modifications.
Here's my code snippet:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(service
cgit-service-type
(cgit-configuration
(enable-git-config? #t)
(remove-suffix? #t)
(root-title "git.example.com")
(clone-prefix (list "https://git.example.com"))
(strict-export "git-daemon-export-ok")
(nginx
(list
(nginx-server-configuration
(server-name '("git.example.com"))
(root cgit)
(locations
(list
(git-http-nginx-location-configuration
(git-http-configuration (uri-path "/")))
(nginx-location-configuration
(uri "@cgit")
(body '("fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/lib/cgit/cgit.cgi;"
"fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $uri;"
"fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $args;"
"fastcgi_param HTTP_HOST $server_name;"
"fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;")))))
(try-files (list "$uri" "@cgit"))
(ssl-certificate "/etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem")
(ssl-certificate-key "/etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem"))))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
With this setting running guix pull onto a channel will error out:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix pull: error: Git error: invalid content-type: 'text/plain; charset=UTF-8'
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Which appears that my nginx instance or cgit is still serving git
repositories over git's old dumb http protocol instead of providing it
over git-http-backend. The logs in nginx are suggesting no error
though.
Chances are that I got it wrong from reading the manual. Has anyone
else set this up yet? It'd be grand to have this working.
Thanks in advance!
Simon
