+Setting the environment variable GITWEB_CONFIG will tell gitweb to use
+the named file (ie in this example /etc/gitweb.conf) as a
+configuration for gitweb.  Perl variables defined in here will
+override the defaults given at the head of the gitweb.perl (or
+gitweb.cgi).  Look at the comments in that file for information on
+which variables and what they mean.
