{{{#!wiki tip
The serving of multiple repositories over the Web is now described [[PublishingRepositories#multiple|in the Publishing Repositories document]] together with other related information. However, this guide gives some specific RHEL-related guidance.

 1. mkdir /var/www/cgi-hg
 1. cp hgwebdir.cgi /var/www/cgi-hg && chmod +x /var/www/cgi-hg/hgwebdir.cgi
 1. vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/hg.conf
 {{{
ScriptAliasMatch        ^/hg(.*)        /var/www/cgi-hg/hgwebdir.cgi$1

<Directory /var/www/cgi-hg/>
        Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride None
</Directory>
 }}}
 1. touch /var/www/cgi-hg/hgweb.config
 1. /etc/init.d/httpd reload
 http://BASEURL/hg should now show an empty hgwebdir interface
 1. copy or symlink a hg repository, say "myproject" into /var/www/cgi-hg
 1. vi /var/www/cgi-hg/hgweb.config
 {{{
[paths]
#VIRTUAL_PATH = /REAL/PATH
myproject = myproject

# [collections]
# /prefix/to/strip/off = /root/of/tree/full/of/repos
# collections example: say directory tree /foo contains repos /foo/bar,
# /foo/quux/baz.  Give this config section:
#   [collections]
#   /foo = /foo
# Then repos will list as bar and quux/baz.
