vlion - a pursuit of the ineffable

to get hgwebdir running on Snow Leopard

step 1: open /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
edit the "points to" directory to some directory of your choosing set up a cgi-bin rewrite for /hg mapping to /ome/directory/hgwebdir.cgi

step 2: add hgwebdir.cgi to /some/directory.

step 3: add the repos you want to add to the configuration file, see hgwebdir.cgi for more info

step 4: chmod 755 /some/directory

step 5: chmod -R 755 on your repo; also chmod 755 directories on up the directory tree.

-chown is probably not needed??

-web user is _www

also don't forget to start the webserver on system preferences.
