The flow of the text describing GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM and
GITWEB_CONFIG_COMMON in gitweb/INSTALL is awkward. "This is bad. Oh
the other hand, better is broken. Therefore we do this." forces
readers to make multiple guesses while reading: "ok, bad, so you
plan to change it and warn us about upcoming change? oh, not that,
changing it is bad, so we have to live with it? oh, not that, there
is another one that is common and that is what we can use".
Better rewrite said paragraph to avoid such a mental roller-coaster in
the first place.

This allows web sites to add some specific html headers to the pages
generated by gitweb.
The new variable $site_html_head_string can be set to an html snippet that
will be inserted at the end of the <head> section of each page generated
by gitweb.

Most of what is in gitweb.txt it has been pulled directly from the
README and INSTALL files of gitweb.
Current version is somewhat based on structure of SVN::Web manpage
(one of web interfaces for Subversion).
gitweb.conf(5) i.e. gitweb configuration manpage now refers to
appropriate sections in gitweb(1). gitweb/README now refers to
gitweb/INSTALL and gitweb(1) manpage. gitweb/INSTALL now refers to
gitweb.conf(5) and gitweb(1).

Because of backward compatibility we cannot change gitweb to always
use /etc/gitweb.conf (i.e. even if gitweb_config.perl exists). For
common system-wide settings we therefore need separate configuration
file: /etc/gitweb-common.conf.
Long description:
gitweb currently obtains configuration from the following sources:
1. per-instance configuration file (default: gitweb_conf.perl)
2. system-wide configuration file (default: /etc/gitweb.conf)
If per-instance configuration file exists, then system-wide
configuration is _not used at all_. This is quite untypical and
suprising behavior.
Moreover it is different from way git itself treats /etc/git.conf. It
reads in stuff from /etc/git.conf and then local repos can change or
override things as needed. In fact this is quite beneficial, because
it gives site admins a simple and easy way to give an automatic hint
to a repo about things the admin would like.
On the other hand changing current behavior may lead to the situation,
where something in /etc/gitweb.conf may interfere with unintended
interaction in the local repository. One solution would be to
_require_ to do explicit include; with read_config_file() it is now
easy, as described in gitweb/README (description introduced in this
commit).
But as J.H. noticed we cannot ask people to modify their per-instance
gitweb config file to include system-wide settings, nor we can require
them to do this.
Therefore, as proposed by Junio, for gitweb to have centralized config
elements while retaining backwards compatibility, introduce separate
common system-wide configuration file, by default /etc/gitweb-common.conf

The build-time configuration variables JSMIN and CSSMIN were mentioned
only in Makefile; add their description to gitweb/INSTALL.
This required moving description of GITWEB_JS up, near GITWEB_CSS and

Create a new subdirectory called 'static' in gitweb/, and move
all static files required by gitweb.cgi when running, which means
styles, images and Javascript code. This should make gitweb more
readable and easier to maintain.
Update t/gitweb-lib.sh to reflect this change.The install-gitweb
now also include moving of static files into 'static' subdirectory
in target directory: update Makefile, gitweb's INSTALL, README and
Makefile accordingly.

Installing gitweb is now as easy as
# make gitwebdir=/var/www/cgi-bin gitweb-install ;# as root
The gitweb/INSTALL file was updated accordingly, to make use of this
new target.
Fix shell quoting, i.e. setting bindir_SQ etc., in gitweb/Makefile.
Those variables were not used previously.

Gitweb can be generated by the gitweb/gitweb.cgi target or the gitweb

to have new users be instructed to use it.

The build system added support minifying gitweb.js through a
JavaScript minifier, but most minifiers come with support for
minifying CSS files as well, so we should use it if we can.
This patch will add the same facilities to gitweb.css that
gitweb.js has for minification. That does not mean that they
will use the same minifier though, as it is not safe to assume
that all JavaScript minifiers will also minify CSS files.
This patch also adds the GITWEB_PROGRAMS variable to the Makefile
to keep a list of potential gitweb dependencies separate from
OTHER_PROGRAMS when we need to know just the gitweb dependencies.
Though the bandwidth savings will not be as dramatic as with
the JavaScript minifier, every byte saved is important.

Add a configuration variable that can be used to specify an
arbitrary subroutine that will be called in the same situations
where $export_ok is checked, and its return value used
to decide whether the repository is to be shown.
This allows the user to implement custom authentication
schemes, for example by issuing a subrequest through mod_perl
and checking if Apache will authorize it.

From a distribution point of view, configuration files for applications
should reside in /etc/. On the other hand it's convenient for multiple
instances of gitweb (e.g. virtual web servers on a single machine) to have
a per-instance configuration file, just as gitweb currently supports
through the file gitweb_config.perl next to the cgi.
To support both at runtime, this commit introduces GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM as
a system-wide configuration file which will be used as a fallback if the
config file sprecified throug GITWEB_CONFIG does not exist.
