#45355 new enhancement

git @2.1.2_0 +bash_completion+credential_osxkeychain+doc+pcre+perl5_12+python27+svn instaweb with Apache 2

Reported by: p3k (Tobi Schäfer) Owned by: ci42
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.3.1
Keywords: Cc: cooljeanius (Eric Gallager)
Port: git

Description

To start git-instaweb using Apache 2 on OS X it is necessary to invoke the following command:

# git instaweb --httpd httpd -m /usr/libexec/apache2/

Unfortunately, this causes a never-ending display of loading dots like Waiting for 'httpd -f' to start ..........

According to this source this can be fixed by adding the following lines to the file git-instaweb – in the case of MacPorts located in /opt/local/libexec/git-core/:

LockFile "$fqgitdir/gitweb/$httpd_only/access.lock"
User _www

I can confirm that it works on Mac OS X 10.9.5 using MacPorts 2.3.1.

Would it be possible to include this patch and make this work?
