Now the following types of path based URLs are supported: * project overview (summary) page of project * project/branch shortlog of branch * project/branch:file file in branch, blob_plain view * project/branch:dir/ directory listing of dir in branch, tree view The following shortcuts works (see explanation below): * project/branch: directory listing of branch, main tree view * project/:file file in HEAD (raw) * project/:dir/ directory listing of dir in HEAD * project/: directory listing of project's HEAD We use ':' as separator between branch (ref) name and file name (pathname) because valid branch (ref) name cannot have ':' inside. This limit applies to branch name only. This allow for hierarchical branches e.g. topic branch 'topic/subtopic', separate remotes tracking branches e.g. 'refs/remotes/origin/HEAD', and discriminate between head (branch) and tag with the same name. Empty branch should be interpreted as HEAD. If pathname (the part after ':') ends with '/', we assume that pathname is name of directory, and we want to show contents of said directory using "tree" view. If pathname is empty, it is equivalent to '/' (top directory). If pathname (the part after ':') does not end with '/', we assume that pathname is name of file, and we show contents of said file using "blob_plain" view. Pathname is stripped of leading '/', so we can use ':/' to separate branch from pathname. The rationale behind support for PATH_INFO based URLs was to support project web pages for small projects: just create an html branch and then use an URL like http://nowhere.com/gitweb.cgi/project.git/html:/index.html The ':/' syntax allow for working links between .html files served in such way, e.g. <a href="main.html"> link inside "index.html" would get http://nowhere.com/gitweb.cgi/project.git/html:/main.html. Signed-off-by: Jakub Narebski <jnareb@xxxxxxxxx> --- Alternatively we could use git-cat-file -t (git_get_type subroutine) to distinguish between trees and files (blobs), but first it would slow gitweb somewhat (additional fork), and second git_get_type assumes that $git_dir is set... and this variable is defined later!
