Huh? I do not get that. Suppose I am looking at my repository. I visit there from my Firefox and see this in the location bar: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=git/git.git;a=summary Now I would want to check if there are updates to gitk. So I click on the location bar, and edit it to: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=gitk/gitk.git;a=summary (that's two insertions of 'k'). Now with PATH_INFO, how exactly is this easier? - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
