Jakub Narebski 1cae3ee70d gitweb.js: Provide getElementsByClassName method (if it not exists)
The code is simplified and does not support full specification of
native getElementsByClassName method, but implements just subset that
would be enough for gitweb, supporting only single class name.

GIT web interface (gitweb) - JavaScript
=======================================

This directory holds JavaScript code used by gitweb (GIT web interface).
Scripts from there would be concatenated together in the order specified
by gitweb/Makefile into gitweb/static/gitweb.js, during building of
gitweb/gitweb.cgi (during gitweb building).  The resulting file (or its
minification) would then be installed / deployed together with gitweb.

Scripts in 'lib/' subdirectory compose generic JavaScript library,
providing features required by gitweb but in no way limited to gitweb
only.  In the future those scripts could be replaced by some JavaScript
library / framework, like e.g. jQuery, YUI, Prototype, MooTools, Dojo,
ExtJS, Script.aculo.us or SproutCore.

All scripts that manipulate gitweb output should be put outside 'lib/',
directly in this directory ('gitweb/static/js/').  Those scripts would
have to be rewritten if gitweb moves to using some JavaScript library.
