2011-05-24gitweb: Split JavaScript for maintability, combining on buildLibravatar Jakub Narebski1-0/+20
Split originally single gitweb.js file into smaller files, each dealing with single issue / area of responsibility. This move should make gitweb's JavaScript code easier to maintain. For better webapp performance it is recommended[1][2][3] to combine JavaScript files. Do it during build time (in gitweb/Makefile), by straight concatenation of files into gitweb.js file (which is now ignored as being generated). This means that there are no changes to gitweb script itself - it still uses gitweb.js or gitweb.min.js, but now generated.

Combine external JavaScript files" [3]: http://javascript-reference.info/speed-up-your-javascript-load-time.htm "Combine Your Files" section. See also new gitweb/static/js/README file.
