git-daemon on debian vserver

Annoyingly git-daemon-run requires runit on debian, but runit will fail to install properly in a debian vserver because it doesn't have init.

One solution is to reconfigure vserver to use plain init style.

However I didn't want to this because I don't want to take down my vserver just yet. So here is the required line for /etc/inetd.conf:

git     stream  tcp     nowait  nobody /usr/bin/git git daemon --inetd /var/git-repos

Cheers,

Steve
