Hmmm... it looks like starts apache2, but generates config file
(httpd.conf) for lighttpd instead.
Ahh... actually you started apache2, but didn't generate configuration
file for it, so git-instaweb re-uses previous config file... which by
default is lighttpd:
start, --start
Start the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any of the
configuration files for spawning a new instance.
Try using
$ git instaweb -d apache2 -p 1234 -b lynx
then exiting web browser.
BTW. I think that git-instaweb should be more helpful here... will
investigate.

Nb. it doesn't mater where $HOME is, but where is git repository you
were in when calling git-instaweb.
BTW. in the future it would be good idea to tell what git version are
you using.
