For personal use I have a [private Git server](https://git.mitjafelicijan.com)
set up and I use GitHub just as a mirror. By default the cgit theme looks a bit
dated so I made the flowing theme.

- `/etc/cgitrc`

```ini
css=/cgit.css
logo=/startrek.gif
favicon=/favicon.png
source-filter=/usr/lib/cgit/filters/syntax-highlighting-edited.sh
about-filter=/usr/lib/cgit/filters/about-formatting.sh

max-repo-count=100

enable-index-owner=0
enable-follow-links=1
enable-log-filecount=1

root-title=Place for code, experiments and other bullshit!

# Must be at the end!

```

For `syntax-highlighting-edited.sh` follow instructions on
[https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Cgit](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Cgit#Using_highlight).

- `/usr/share/cgit/cgit.css`

```css
