1312DESCRIPTION
1413-----------
15- Does something not yet documented.
14+ A really simple TCP git daemon that normally listens on port "DEFAULT_GIT_PORT"
15+ aka 9418. It waits for a connection, and will just execute "git-upload-pack"
16+ when it gets one.
17+
18+ It's careful in that there's a magic request-line that gives the command and
19+ what directory to upload, and it verifies that the directory is ok.
1620
21+ It verifies that the directory has the magic file "git-daemon-export-ok", and
22+ it will refuse to export any git directory that hasn't explicitly been marked
23+ for export this way.
24+
25+ This is ideally suited for read-only updates, ie pulling from git repositories.
