Hi Michael,

In the above mentioned instructions...

..."Full directory paths will be needed in
horde-git/horde/config/registry.php due to the symlinks. The easiest
way to setup full paths is to set the $app_fileroot parameter in this
file."

Do you mean
root at mail:/usr/share/2020-git-horde# find .  -name "registry.php" -print
./base/config/registry.php

Is there anyway to preserve any modified *.local.php files (from the
previous git clone) in the web-accessible directory specified in
git-tools/config/conf.php?

I have a backup of them, so it's not critical, but would save some time.

Thanks for the help.

Simon
