gitweb refusing to blame
- by Slipp D. Thompson
I'm attempting to get gitweb (git 1.8.4.2, via git instaweb) in a project dir on my Debian server to offer blame views.
In my /etc/gitweb.conf:
… # default logo, favicon, etc. settings
$feature{'blame'}{'default'} = [1];
$feature{'pickaxe'}{'default'} = [1];
$feature{'snapshot'}{'default'} = ['tgz', 'txz', 'zip'];
$feature{'highlight'}{'default'} = [1];
$feature{'pathinfo'}{'default'} = [1];
In my global config file:
[gitweb]
blame = true
snapshot = tgz, txz, zip
patches = 256
avatar = gravatar
[instaweb]
local = false
httpd = apache2 -f
port = 4321
In my project's .git/config file:
[gitweb]
blame = true
And yet, when I try to load a git blame view (via hand-modifying the URL to http://myserversip:4321/?p=.git;a=blame;f=Tests/InchCoordProxyTests.m;h=b4b2…;hb=53b4, since blame action links don't show up):
Doing a quick search for “Blame view not allowed” in the gitweb.cgi source reveals plainly that the gitweb_check_feature('blame') conditional is failing.
What am I doing wrong?
Or, is there a way to verbosely print out why gitweb is doing what it's doing (e.g. which config files were read, which settings were loaded from each file, etc.)?
