Hello,
after writing to thttpd-request at mail.acme.com , as suggested at http://www.acme.com/software/thttpd/, I get no replies.
Therefore cannot subscribe to the mailing list thttpd at mail.acme.com, that was last used in 2014 according to
https://marc.info/?l=thttpd&r=1&w=2 .
My experience with thttpd shows that it eliminates terminating slashes in the requests, before callnig a CGI program.
cgit (https://git.zx2c4.com/cgit/) insists of receivng a terminating slash, in order to always work correctly. See the
discussion at https://lists.zx2c4.com/pipermail/cgit/2019-January/thread.html labelled “Slash after /about”.
Please reach a consensus between cgit and thttpd whether a webserver is entitled to trim terminating slashes from the
URL.
Regards
Дилян
