The latter aims to translate _oasis file into simple web pages (including markdown translation). Have a look at: http://oasis.ocamlcore.org/dev/browse?ver=0.2.0~alpha1&pkg=oasis This web page has been translated from: http://darcs.ocamlcore.org/cgi-bin/darcsweb.cgi?r=oasis;a=headblob;f=/_oasis (this package is pretty complex, so there is a lot a library/exec/tests but what is translated is basically Synopsis + Description). If you add an _oasis file to your project and upload it to oasis.ocamlcore.org it will generate this kind of pages. Maxence, does it fit your requirement? (the project is still at an early stage, but the upload is working) > Indeed, having to look for this information in a tarball of a git repos > (with gitweb) is not very convenient.

Just add html files to /home/groups/PROJECT/htdocs on ssh.ocamlcore.org, same ssh key as git/darcs/svn login. You can use rsync, scp or unison.
