Editing head, well, having other branch checked out would be enough (checked
out before push would be enough I guess for gitweb repository being
"published repository", other that the copy you are working on).

AFAIR the problem was that development was not made at "master", so "Last
Changes" were last changes in master, no last changes as a whole. Last
changes date as a whole would be last change date of latest edited branch.
And for this I'd rather have functioning git-show-refs, for performance (at
least with larger number of heads...).
