# express-git
Express middleware that handles git requests using the git-http-backend CGI script.
## Example
```js
import ServeGit from '@danipatko/express-git';
import express from 'express';
const app = express();
const config = {
host: '0.0.0.0',
port: 3000,
projectRoot: '/path/to/your/projects/',
};
app.use('/git', ServeGit(config));
app.listen(3000, '0.0.0.0', () => console.log('Server is listening...'));
```
## Usage
```sh
# Create new repository in your configured projectRoot folder
mkdir example.git # name ends with '.git'
cd example.git
git init --bare # --initial-branch=master --template=<template>
# Enable pushing/modifying for anonymus users in this repo (manage access on the express server)
echo -e "[http]\n\treceivepack = true" >> config
# Clone the repo somewhere else
git clone http://127.0.0.1:3000/git/example.git
> Cloning into 'example'...
> warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.
# do stuff with the repo
```
