Web repository browsing

Gitweb provides a web interface for your git repositories. Gitweb provides the following features :
- Browse git repositories on the web
- Browse each version of the repository
- View any file content for any revision
- View the revision log for each branch, what has been changed and by who
- Rss / Atom feeds generation
- View all the changes of a revision
- Search engine on commit messages
GitPhp (a Gitweb implementation in PHP) is used in GitStack because the original Gitweb is not compatible with Windows.
Gitweb can be access by clicking on the magnifier icon on a repository.

Gitweb can be enabled and disabled from the Administration panel in the settings section.
