http-backend: add GIT_PROJECT_ROOT environment var
Add a new environment variable, GIT_PROJECT_ROOT, to override the method of using PATH_TRANSLATED to find the git repository on disk. This makes it much easier to configure the web server, especially when the web server's DocumentRoot does not contain the git repositories, which is the usual case.

URL TRANSLATION
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
'git-http-backend' relies on the invoking web server to perform
|
||||
URL to path translation, and store the repository path into the
|
||||
PATH_TRANSLATED environment variable. Most web servers will do
|
||||
this translation automatically, resolving the suffix after the
|
||||
CGI name relative to the server's document root.
|
||||
To determine the location of the repository on disk, 'git-http-backend'
|
||||
concatenates the environment variables PATH_INFO, which is set
|
||||
automatically by the web server, and GIT_PROJECT_ROOT, which must be set
|
||||
manually in the web server configuration. If GIT_PROJECT_ROOT is not
|
||||
set, 'git-http-backend' reads PATH_TRANSLATED, which is also set
|
||||
automatically by the web server.
