website-7 Dynamic Git Frontend

website.git · Tickets

A Website Ticket (Completed):

Ticket · History

• Rewriting the git frontend to be dynamic.

Symptoms

• Git frontend looks like shit
• It can only show files on the main branch and nothing else
• File names can conflict, like a file called /HEAD would override the dumb HTTP stuff
• I assume but have not tested that generating the git frontend along with copying files into the generated output - ticket TBD - is slowing the static site generator way down.

Ideas

• Line numbers
• Syntax highlighting
• Make tabs for pages like Pinchord, where you can go between Home | Files | Tickets | Branches | Commits, I think that'd be really nice
