cvsweb-2.1 – CGI script to browse CVS repository trees (cvsweb github mirror)

Description

The cvsweb WWW CGI script allows remote users to browse a CVS
repository tree via the web.  It can display the revision history
of a file, as well as diffs between revisions, and download the
whole file.

Readme

# +-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# | Running ${PKGSTEM} on OpenBSD
# +-----------------------------------------------------------------------

# Original author: Jolan Luff 
#
# In order to make CVSweb operate in a chroot environment, it is
# necessary to copy all of the relevant tools, libraries, and perl modules
# that CVSweb employs into /var/www.
#
# NOTE: You can run this README directly with sh(1).
#
# First, create the basic directory structure:

cd /var/www
mkdir -p tmp usr dev
chown www:www tmp	# needs to be writeable for the www user

cd /var/www/usr
mkdir -p bin lib libdata/perl5 libexec

cd /var/www/usr/libdata/perl5
mkdir -p File IPC Time warnings `arch -s`-openbsd/auto/{Cwd,Fcntl} unicore

# The "annotate" function requires this empty file:
#
# NOTE: You can create an actual null device instead, but that will
# not work if the filesystem is mounted with the nodev option, and
# it is not required for cvsweb.

cd /var/www/dev
touch null

# Now, the required binaries:

cd /var/www/usr/bin
cp -p /usr/bin/{co,cvs,diff,perl,rcsdiff,rlog,uname} .

# Next, the libraries that the binaries are linked to:
#
# NOTE: Wildcards will, of course, copy any old, unused libraries that are
# lurking around (for example, from an upgrade):

cd /var/www/usr/lib
cp -p /usr/lib/lib{c,m,perl,pthread,util,z}.so* .

# Now, the run-time link-editor:

cd /var/www/usr/libexec
cp -p /usr/libexec/ld.so .

# And finally, the perl modules:

cd /var/www/usr/libdata/perl5
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/{Carp,Exporter,Symbol,base,integer,parent}.pm .
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/{strict,warnings,vars,constant,utf8}.pm .
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/utf8_heavy.pl .
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/unicore/Heavy.pl ./unicore/
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/File/Basename.pm ./File/
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/IPC/Open{2,3}.pm ./IPC/
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/Time/Local.pm ./Time/
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/warnings/register.pm ./warnings/
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/XSLoader.pm .

cd /var/www/usr/libdata/perl5/`arch -s`-openbsd
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/`arch -s`-openbsd/Config.pm .
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/`arch -s`-openbsd/Config_{git,heavy}.pl .
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/`arch -s`-openbsd/Cwd.pm .
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/`arch -s`-openbsd/auto/Cwd/Cwd.so ./auto/Cwd/
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/`arch -s`-openbsd/DynaLoader.pm .
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/`arch -s`-openbsd/Fcntl.pm .
cp -p /usr/libdata/perl5/`arch -s`-openbsd/auto/Fcntl/Fcntl.so ./auto/Fcntl/

# You also need to enable slowcgi(8):

rcctl enable slowcgi
rcctl start slowcgi

# Editing cvsweb and cvsweb.conf
# ------------------------------
# The cvsweb program already assumes that it is running chrooted,
# and the location of the configuration file is hardcoded to
# /conf/cvsweb/cvsweb.conf, so usually there is no need to edit
# the cvsweb program itself.

# By default, /var/www/conf/cvsweb/cvsweb.conf configures one
# repository to be served: /var/www/cvs/, which should contain
# the subdirectory CVSROOT and one or more module directories.
# Additional repositories, each containing their own CVSROOT
# subdirectory, can be added to the @CVSrepositories array.

# Example httpd.conf(5) for cvsweb
# --------------------------------
# server "domain.tld" {
#      listen on * port 80
#      #listen on egress tls port 443
#
#      #tls {
#              #certificate "/etc/ssl/domain.tld_fullchain.pem"
#              #key "/etc/ssl/private/domain.tld_private.pem"
#      #}
#
#      location "/cgi-bin/*" {
#              fastcgi
#              root "/"
#      }
# }
