With this patch it is possible to use gitweb.perl for developing by
loading the configuration from $GITWEB_CONFIG. This might also be
useful for normal usage of gitweb.
Example:
% cat cfg
$GIT = '/usr/bin/git';
$projectroot = '/home/matled/src/git';
$projects_list = '/home/matled/src/git/git/gitweb/list';
% cat run
#!/bin/sh
export GATEWAY_INTERFACE="CGI/1.1"
export HTTP_ACCEPT="*/*"
export REQUEST_METHOD="GET"
export GITWEB_CONFIG='./cfg'
export QUERY_STRING=""$1""
exec ./gitweb.perl
% time ./run p=git/.git > /dev/null
This makes it easy to check for warnings and do performance tests
after changes, you can also pipe this to lynx -dump -force-html
/dev/stdin to get more than just html.
This also documents the original patch adding require $GITWEB_CONFIG.

Configuration will first be taken from variables inside the gitweb.cgi
script, which in turn come from the Makefile. Afterwards, the contents of
GITWEB_CONFIG are read, overriding the builtin defaults.
This should eliminate the need for editing the gitweb script at all. Users
should edit the Makefile and/or add a config file.

Use the normal web server instead of the CGI to provide the git logo,
just like the gitweb.css.

Generate gitweb/gitweb.cgi to reduce the need to patch gitweb.cgi
by the end user. The GIT installation directory is already known
by the Makefile, and can be inserted directly into gitweb.
All other gitweb configuration parameters can now be specified by
providing GITWEB_* variables while building GIT. These are described
in gitweb/README.
