I'm using nginx and it doesn't deny access to .directories, I have just tried it. I don't know if .git directory has any sensitive information or not... Actually I think I can deny access to .directories in the nginx.conf file but it doesn't look very `nice'. If there is a way to get rid of all those directories I always prefer doing it over having .git in my production directory. ----------------------------------------------------------------- To get off this list, send email to fsck-requ...@mtcs.truman.edu with Subject: unsubscribe -----------------------------------------------------------------
