Paketti: git-daemon-run (1:2.45.2-1.3)

fast, scalable, distributed revision control system (git-daemon service)

Git is popular version control system designed to handle very large projects with speed and efficiency; it is used for many high profile open source projects, most notably the Linux kernel.

Git falls in the category of distributed source code management tools. Every Git working directory is a full-fledged repository with full revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access or a central server.

git-daemon, as provided by the git package, is a simple server for git repositories, ideally suited for read-only updates, i.e. pulling from git repositories through the network. This package provides a runit service for running git-daemon permanently. This configuration is simpler and more reliable than git-daemon-sysvinit, at a cost of being less familiar for administrators accustomed to sysvinit.
