If named boolean option -path_info is passed to href() subroutine, it would use its value to decide whether to generate path_info URL form. If this option is not passed, href() queries 'pathinfo' feature to check whether to generate path_info URL (if generating path_info link is possible at all). href(-replay=>1, -path_info=>0) is meant to be used to generate a key for caching gitweb output; alternate solution would be to use freeze() from Storable (core module) on %input_params hash (or its reference), e.g.: $key = freeze \%input_params; or other serialization of %input_params. While at it document extra options/flags to href().
