Thanks for doing it.

It is correct, although I had in mind slightly different solution

I'd rather use here, taking for example 'txz' as "known but disabled"

  +		'compressor' => ['xz'],
  +		'disabled' => 1},

And then you would not need to modify the rest of snapshot formats,
making use of the fact that $hash{'key'} is false-ish, if 'key' does
not exist in hash.

Also, this should be documented at least in comments.

This would be modified then to read:

  +	} elsif ($known_snapshot_formats{$format}{'disabled'}) {
  +		die_error(403, "Snapshot format not allowed");

Also, we want not only protect againts *using* known but disabled
format, but also do not display it as one of formats available, even
if project specific override is supprted for snapshot, and projects
list it in gitweb.snapshot:

 }
 
 our $GITWEB_CONFIG = $ENV{'GITWEB_CONFIG'} || "++GITWEB_CONFIG++";
