Describe the bug:
Subject: Deprecation of git instaweb Command in "4.7 Git on the Server" Section
Report:
In the "4.7 Git on the Server" section, there is a recommendation to use the git instaweb command to preview GitWeb. However, this command has been deprecated and is no longer included in newer versions of Git. The documentation should be updated to reflect this change and suggest alternative methods for previewing GitWeb.
Steps to reproduce:
- Go to 'https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-GitWeb'
- See error
Expected behavior:
The documentation should be updated to remove references to the deprecated git instaweb command. Instead, it should provide alternative methods for previewing GitWeb or clearly indicate that the command is no longer available in recent versions of Git. This will ensure that users are not misled by outdated instructions.
