I don't get why Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch is needed here.

If we are linking to the root installed git-http-backend Apache
will actually reject the link, because the link owner is likely to
be $USER while the target is owned by root.

So I really can't ACK this, the instructions don't jive with my
understanding of the Apache configuration.
