OK, I guess I overstated. Not "extremely disappointing." Just not the way I was expecting it to work. I didn't really want the cruft of another checkout sitting around...not a big deal, really, just caught me off guard. Sorry. > In addition to that checked out clone we create a pre formatted html > file (but you can disable this if you like to) of the source files. Yeah, I'd like to disable this. I assume that's an OPENGROK_* variable? What I'd rather do is provide a link to the file via our source code viewer, like https://ourdomain.com/trac/browser/path/to/found/file.html. That would at least mitigate the problem of not being able to restrict results by user. I wouldn't mind the search results showing context in the web page, just not display the entire file. > >> OPENGROK_REMOTE_REPOS is a trigger variable to disable the remote > >> repo support, which is on by default > > > >OK...then can you explain "remote repo"?

What I mean is: how do you configure OpenGrok to index a remote repo instead of requiring a local checkout? Or am I not understandig the feature referred to by this trigger? j -- Joshua J.
