From: Georgios Kontaxis <geko1702+commits@xxxxxxxxx> Gitweb extracts content from the Git log and makes it accessible over HTTP. As a result, e-mail addresses found in commits are exposed to web crawlers. This may result in unsolicited messages. This is a feature for redacting e-mail addresses from the generated HTML content. This feature does not prevent someone from downloading the unredacted commit log and extracting information from it. It aims to hinder the low-effort bulk collection of e-mail addresses by web crawlers. Signed-off-by: Georgios Kontaxis <geko1702+commits@xxxxxxxxx> --- gitweb: Redacted e-mail addresses feature.
