17 hours	End each MANUAL entry with its default	Bryce Kwon	-41/+41
17 hours	Trim the enable-http-clone entry	Bryce Kwon	-12/+6
17 hours	Say once which variables a macro can name	Bryce Kwon	-9/+5
17 hours	Name the guarded settings in one place	Bryce Kwon	-9/+5
17 hours	Point repo overrides at their global entries	Bryce Kwon	-15/+5
17 hours	Trim the header notes in the server configs	Bryce Kwon	-23/+7
	Each config listed every header cgit sends, where only its own nosniff and strict policy on raw bytes bear on the headers set there. The list also missed Vary, and the Apache one called Apache a proxy.
17 hours	Leave the filter contracts to the Filter API	Bryce Kwon	-35/+26
	Each global filter entry restated the arguments and the stdin and stdout contract that "Filter API" gives in full. commit-filter and email-filter now name their shipped filters, as the others do.
17 hours	Describe project-list as the file it names	Bryce Kwon	-1/+1
17 hours	Say each css and js line holds one url	Bryce Kwon	-3/+3
17 hours	Drop the snapshot format from the query comment	Bryce Kwon	-1/+1
	A snapshot's format comes from the suffix of its filename in the path, not from the query string.
17 hours	Name every default asset link in the configs	Bryce Kwon	-11/+11
	The nginx sub-path recipe moved only the stylesheet and the logo, and left the script and the icon pointing at the domain root.
17 hours	Say which versions enable-version-info names	Bryce Kwon	-6/+5
	Only the footer carries the git version. The reason the versions stay out by default is left to MANUAL, which already gives it.
17 hours	Document virtual-root's default of SCRIPT_NAME	Bryce Kwon	-7/+7
	cgit falls back to SCRIPT_NAME followed by a slash when virtual-root is unset, so its links always take the path form and none take the ?url= form the docs described.
17 hours	Move scan-path below the settings it inherits	Bryce Kwon	-7/+19
	The quick start says to uncomment scan-path, and in its old place a scanned repository missed every setting below it, among them the filters, the snapshots and the enable flags.
17 hours	Keep the age hook quiet when it cannot write	Bryce Kwon	-5/+30
2 days	Release v2.10.0 v2.10.0	Bryce Kwon	-1/+77
2 days	Rename CHANGELOG.txt to CHANGE.txt	Bryce Kwon	-0/+0
2 days	Credit Git in the README	Bryce Kwon	-0/+4
2 days	Declare each phony target beside its rule	Bryce Kwon	-9/+19
	A list at the end of the file is easy to miss when a target is added or renamed.
2 days	Rename the release script to build-release.sh	Bryce Kwon	-1/+1
	Named like build-development.sh, so the two sort together in tools/.
2 days	Add a development build script	Bryce Kwon	-2/+49
	cgit's objects are compiled by its own rule rather than git's, so they took no -MJ flag and a compilation database held only git's sources.
2 days	Fold the version script into its make recipe	Bryce Kwon	-36/+17
	gen-version.sh was only ever run by this one recipe, so tools/ now holds just the scripts a person runs.
2 days	Let long hashes and names wrap on a phone	Bryce Kwon	-0/+8
	A blob header's hash and a commit's download names are single words wider than a phone's content area, so the whole main area scrolled sideways. The hash may now break anywhere, and below 640px a download name may too, while wider screens keep each name on one line with its signature.
2 days	Keep the commit-graph current in an example hook	Bryce Kwon	-1/+57
	cgit's log, blame and graph pages read commits from the commit-graph when a repository has one, and its changed path filters let a walk limited to one file skip the commits that never touched it. git gc writes a graph only now and then and starts those filters only when a write asks for them, so the hook writes a split layer with them after each push.
2 days	Drop only the cache a push makes stale	Bryce Kwon	-28/+195
	The hook cleared every slot on a push to any repository. cgit writes the request a slot answers at its head, so the hook now reads it back and drops only the pushed repository's pages and the index. It finds the repository's url from scan-path or hooks.cgiturl, and with neither it clears everything as before.
2 days	Pin the server configs to the releases they suit	Bryce Kwon	-1/+7
	Each names the branch it was written for and the release current at its last review, nginx 1.30.6 stable, Apache httpd 2.4.69 and lighttpd 1.4.85, as the projects' own sites listed them on 2026-10-29.
2 days	Note that the dumb http transport is a fallback	Bryce Kwon	-3/+7
2 days	Render the man pages that generators write	Bryce Kwon	-56/+298
	DocBook, pod2man and hand written pages leaked roff onto the page: font escapes inside no fill blocks, comments, layout escapes such as \% and \c, the colours and half line moves around DocBook's links, and the requests and macro definitions their preambles open with. Those now draw nothing, the common named characters and strings render, .EX and pod2man's .Vb read as code, a .TP tag takes a line of its own and the alternating font macros switch fonts between their arguments. Anything rarer still falls back to its text.
2 days	Render more of the markdown seen in readmes	Bryce Kwon	-19/+131
	A line of equals signs or dashes under a paragraph now makes a heading of it, as on GitHub, instead of running into its text, and any other rule ends the paragraph. Four spaces or a tab start a code block, and an escaped pipe stays in its table cell. A link opening with two slashes or backslashes in any mix leads to another site, so it renders as text like the plain scheme relative one already did.
2 days	Keep a readme whole past a NUL byte	Bryce Kwon	-8/+25
	cgit takes filter output through a C string sink that stops at the first NUL, so a readme holding one lost everything after it. Each NUL now shows as U+FFFD, as a browser would show it.
2 days	Line error text up with the content	Bryce Kwon	-1/+1
	Messages such as Path not found sat 2em further in than every other block on the page.
2 days	Offer no diff options on an octopus merge	Bryce Kwon	-1/+15
	The commit page draws no diff for a merge of three or more parents, so the options above it changed nothing.
2 days	Bring every text colour up to WCAG AA	Bryce Kwon	-9/+14
	Muted, faint, the footer and the month and year ages fell short of 4.5:1 on the backgrounds they sit on, the row stripes and line number cells among them, and links inside sentences differed from the text around them only by colour. Each grey is now the lightest that clears 4.5:1 on its darkest background, with months stepped between weeks and years so the age fade keeps all six steps, and links in running text are underlined.
3 days	Offer the versions as an option	Bryce Kwon	-7/+68
	enable-version-info brings back the cgit and git versions that 3a00e19 took off the footer and the generator tag, for a site that wants them, and the version 2a6726a put on the signature of patches now follows it too. It stays off by default for the reason 3a00e19 gave.
3 days	Name the page first in every title	Bryce Kwon	-5/+46
	Summary, about, log, refs, tag and stats pages shared one title, so tabs, history and search results could not tell them apart. Titles now read page, repository and site, with root-title as the site, and the description stays in the meta description, where search engines read it.
3 days	Mark the active tab and lines in forced colours	Bryce Kwon	-0/+13
	A forced colours palette, such as a Windows high contrast theme, drops author backgrounds, and those were the only marks on the active tab and on the lines a URL names. The user's own Highlight colour takes their place.
3 days	Name the graph and links header cells	Bryce Kwon	-3/+7
	Both were empty, so a screen reader moving through the table announced those columns with no name. An aria-label names them without adding text to the page.
3 days	Load the scripts with defer	Bryce Kwon	-3/+11
	A plain script in the head held up parsing until it had downloaded and run, though cgit.js only acts once the document is ready. Deferred scripts still run in the order given and before DOMContentLoaded, so a site script after cgit.js can still call window.cgit.
3 days	Give the syntax highlight colours tokens	Bryce Kwon	-6/+13
	They were the only colours written into their rules, so a theme could not change them the way the README says it can change the rest.
3 days	Write sizes and spacing one way	Bryce Kwon	-23/+16
	Font sizes mixed percentages with ems, several paddings and margins spelt out four values where fewer said the same, the blob and blame tables set their position in a rule of their own, and the odd rows repeated the base row background.
3 days	Order the stylesheet by page area	Bryce Kwon	-288/+288
	Rules now run from the tokens and the base elements through the controls, the page frame, the listings, the readme, the blob and blame views, the commit page, the diff, the stats and the login form, to the media queries. Each rule moved whole, and every page renders the same in Chromium, WebKit and Firefox.
3 days	Tidy the diff and stat options panel	Bryce Kwon	-18/+22
	Its caption sat above the box, each select took its own width, and the reload button hung indented under them. The caption is now the panel's header strip, the selects and the button share one column at the width of the widest select, and the labels lose their colons to match the commit details.
3 days	Test that every copy of the background matches	Bryce Kwon	-0/+16
3 days	Give form controls a border of 3:1 contrast	Bryce Kwon	-2/+2
	WCAG 1.4.11 asks for 3:1 where the border is what shows a field is there, and the search field has no other edge. The strong grey gives 5.7:1 on the light background and 3.2:1 on the dark one. Hover moves to the text colour so that it still shows.
3 days	Frame boxes and grids in the mid grey	Bryce Kwon	-8/+8
	The stats grid, the binary blob table and the line above a blob kept the black of the original stylesheet as the darkest grey, and the readme used the lightest, while the diffstat and diff options sat in between. Rules such as the tab bar and the header line keep the light grey.
3 days	Draw one focus ring on links and controls	Bryce Kwon	-1/+3
	Links fell back to each browser's own ring, which differs in shape and colour from one engine to the next, while selects and inputs drew the link colour ring. The repository title clips its overflow, so it gets 3px of padding, given back by a negative margin, for its ring to show whole.
3 days	Square the corners of controls, tabs and labels	Bryce Kwon	-4/+4
	The radius tokens stay, set to zero, since the README offers metrics to a theme, so a site can still round them. Zero rather than no radius at all, since WebKit's own stylesheet gives a select a radius of its own. The chevron loses its round caps and joins to match.
3 days	Drop a row background the stripes override	Bryce Kwon	-4/+0
	The stripe rules come later at the same specificity and match every row, so the logheader background never showed.
3 days	Write border shorthands in one order	Bryce Kwon	-8/+8
3 days	Share one rule between the ref labels	Bryce Kwon	-25/+10
	The five rules differed only in their colours, so a change to the shape of a label had to be made five times over.
