Bug Description

I've seen there are packages to set up git-daemon easily with sysvinit and runit (git-daemon-sysvinit and git-daemon-run). I've been wondering why there isn't a package which sets up an Upstart job, since Upstart is widely used in Ubuntu.

I've made such package: git-daemon-upstart. If you'd kindly verify it and put it into the repositories, everyone would benefit from it. :)

git-daemon-sysvinit works fine with Upstart. And anyway, Ubuntu plans to switch away from Upstart in the current development release.

Yeah, but I always felt, using sysvinit scripts under Upstart is a legacy solution which is provided for compatibility, but is deprecated.

I remembered the switch would happen with the next LTS, but probably you have more accurate information.
