13 .SH "DESCRIPTION"
14 httpup-repgen creates a repository for httpup. It reads the
15 .B ~/.httpup-repgen-ignore
16 and
17 .B ./.httpup-repgen-ignore
18 ignore certain patterns of files. This file will be used in a 'grep -v
19 -f' command. Check the man page of grep(1) if you're uncertain how to use it.

21 .LP
22 httpup-repgen again requires the
23 .B md5sum
24 utility in order to generate a repository index. The more, a web
25 server is needed to publish the collection. Possible problems can
26 arise when publishing files which are executable: some webservers will
27 refuse to serve them.
