Subject: [PATCH] update git-http-backend doc for lighttpd
Date: Sun, 28 Oct 2018 00:16:15 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <01020166b80743cd-0b220d55-a283-456b-a3c3-bdea8aafed8a-000000@eu-west-1.amazonses.com> (raw)

use "GIT_HTTP_EXPORT_ALL" => "1" with a value for best compatiblity.
lighttpd 1.4.51 setenv.add-environment does add vars with empty value.
lighttpd setenv.set-environment does, but was only introduced in 1.4.46

git-http-backend may be found at /usr/libexec/git-core/git-http-backend

scope lighttpd config directives for git-http-backend under "^/git"
