to htpasswd should omit the <em>-c</em> option, since you want to append to the | |
existing file.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>You need to restart Apache.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>Now go to <a href="http://<username>@<servername>/my-new-repo.git">http://<username>@<servername>/my-new-repo.git</a> in your | |

<div class="paragraph"><p>If you’re into Windows, from XP onwards Internet Explorer supports | |

<h2 id="_step_3_setup_the_client">Step 3: setup the client</h2> | |
<div class="sectionbody"> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>Make sure that you have HTTP support, i.e. your Git was built with | |
libcurl (version more recent than 7.10). The command <em>git http-push</em> with | |
no argument should display a usage message.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>Then, add the following to your $HOME/.netrc (you can do without, but will be | |
asked to input your password a <em>lot</em> of times):</p></div> | |
<div class="literalblock"> | |
<div class="content"> | |
<pre><code>machine <servername> | |
login <username> | |
password <password></code></pre> | |
</div></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>…and set permissions: | |
chmod 600 ~/.netrc</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you want to access the web-server by its IP, you have to type that in, | |
instead of the server name.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>To check whether all is OK, do:</p></div> | |
<div class="literalblock"> | |
<div class="content"> | |
<pre><code>curl --netrc --location -v http://<username>@<servername>/my-new-repo.git/HEAD</code></pre> | |
</div></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>…this should give something like <em>ref: refs/heads/master</em>, which is | |
the content of the file HEAD on the server.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>Now, add the remote in your existing repository which contains the project | |
you want to export:</p></div> | |
<div class="literalblock"> | |
<div class="content"> | |
<pre><code>$ git-config remote.upload.url \ | |
http://<username>@<servername>/my-new-repo.git/</code></pre> | |
</div></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>It is important to put the last <em>/</em>; Without it, the server will send | |
a redirect which git-http-push does not (yet) understand, and git-http-push | |
will repeat the request infinitely.</p></div> | |
</div> | |
</div> | |
<div class="sect1"> | |
<h2 id="_step_4_make_the_initial_push">Step 4: make the initial push</h2> | |
<div class="sectionbody"> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>From your client repository, do</p></div> | |
<div class="literalblock"> | |
<div class="content"> | |
<pre><code>$ git push upload master</code></pre> | |
</div></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>This pushes branch <em>master</em> (which is assumed to be the branch you | |
want to export) to repository called <em>upload</em>, which we previously | |
defined with git-config.</p></div> | |
</div> | |
</div> | |
<div class="sect1"> | |
<h2 id="_using_a_proxy">Using a proxy:</h2> | |
<div class="sectionbody"> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you have to access the WebDAV server from behind an HTTP(S) proxy, | |
set the variable <em>all_proxy</em> to <code>http://proxy-host.com:port</code>, or | |
<code>http://login-on-proxy:[email protected]:port</code>. See <em>man | |
curl</em> for details.</p></div> | |

<h2 id="_troubleshooting">Troubleshooting:</h2> | |
<div class="sectionbody"> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>If git-http-push says</p></div> | |
<div class="literalblock"> | |
<div class="content"> | |
<pre><code>Error: no DAV locking support on remote repo http://...</code></pre> | |
</div></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>then it means the web-server did not accept your authentication. Make sure | |
that the user name and password matches in httpd.conf, .netrc and the URL | |
you are uploading to.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>If git-http-push shows you an error (22/502) when trying to MOVE a blob, | |
it means that your web-server somehow does not recognize its name in the | |
request; This can happen when you start Apache, but then disable the | |
network interface. A simple restart of Apache helps.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>Errors like (22/502) are of format (curl error code/http error | |
code). So (22/404) means something like <em>not found</em> at the server.</p></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>Reading /usr/local/apache2/logs/error_log is often helpful.</p></div> | |
<div class="literalblock"> | |
<div class="content"> | |
<pre><code>On Debian: Read /var/log/apache2/error.log instead.</code></pre> | |
</div></div> | |
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you access HTTPS locations, Git may fail verifying the SSL | |
certificate (this is return code 60). Setting http.sslVerify=false can | |
help diagnosing the problem, but removes security checks.</p></div> | |
