Errr... you need something like 'sub' => \&feature_patches for override
to actually work, I think.

Add to that the fact that this patch just adds the new view, like for
example in the case of 'snapshot' link, which was turned on... but fact,
it was by default not overridable. I would agree that it can be turned
on with low limit but not overridable in introductory patch.

You have to use _declaration_ ourside block, but assignment can happen
inside:
+ my $patch_max;
+ if ($format eq 'patch') {
+ $patch_max = gitweb_check_feature('patches');
+ die_error(403, "Patch view not allowed") unless $patch_max;
+ }
(Side note: doesn't it uses spaces instead of tabs for align?)

BTW. I'll try to review patch (and probably Ack) soon.
