I assume you mean --use-log-author? That appears to only look for "From:" and "Signed-off-by" for the author, not the Gnome ChangeLog format used in the commit messages like: 2008-12-12 Dan Williams <[email protected]> So I doubt it will buy me anything without me doing some perl hackery. > > > Also the git-daemon-export-ok doesn't belong in the top-level directory. > > > > That was just there when Adam and were trying to figure out what magic > > cgit needs to get the NM repo to show up on git.freedesktop.org. > > It belongs into the .git directory normally. The on-disk fdo repo (as mbiebl inspected) has one there. The reason the repo wasn't showing up on git.fdo (and why I added that file just for kicks) was likely that I haven't set the repo description.
