'blob' without $file_name doesn't have sense, but 'tree' does.
Probably should be s/blob/tree/ above.

Yes, it related to path_info changes. With current code the only way
to get to no $file_name branch of evaluate_path_info() code was to have
URL which looks like project/branch, for which 'shortlog' action was
chosen (if not specified by CGI query parameters), and for 'shortlog'
action the correct way was to use $hash. Now there can be
project/tree/branch to show top directory of given branch, and this
as described required $hash_base set.
