cgit-70 is a mod/fork of cgit (https://git.zx2c4.com/cgit/), the popular
web-front-end to git. cgit-70 provides a dynamic interface to git
repositories over Gopher. I started working on a proof-of-concept of a
simple gopher interface to git, modifying a few functions in cgit, but
after the first bits fell nicely into place, I decided to keep going and
replace as much as possible of the web interface with corresponding
gopher-friendly stuff. The result is cgit-70.

You can see cgit-70 in action at:

  gopher://cgit.mine.nu/1/cgit-70.cgi

and you can clone the repo at:

  http://cgit.mine.nu/cgit-70

All you need to run cgit-70 is a gopher server that supports the same
CGI interface defined by geomyidae (http://git.r-36.net/geomyidae/). If
you like shell-stuff, you could also give a try to gosher
(http://cgit.mine.nu/gosher), which implements the same interface.
