I don't think so.  We keep git-relink, which almost nobody uses, and
few know what it does.

I guess that git-instaweb is not advertised enough, but that might 
change, as Scott Chacon in "Pro Git" mentions / covers git-instaweb.


P.S. I'd like to create GIT::Web, which would use (contrary to gitweb)
many CPAN modules (and PAR to help installing it with dependencies),
which would use HTTP::Engine (and therefore run as CGI, FastCGI, 
mod_perl and standalone HTTP::Server::Simple), and be similar in 
structure to SVN::Web.  With it using HTTP::Server::Simple git-instaweb 
would be needed less...  But it is in "Duke Nuke Forever" (or 
packv4 ;-) future...
