Two requests: could you please do not toppost, as it goes against
natural flow of discussion and reading, but rather quote relevant
parts and respond below? It would be good to not try to send HTML
mail, as it is forbidden by VGER anti-SPAM filter, so you trying
to send HTML-formatted email result in me getting two copies: one
with and one without HTML version.

I'm afraid it is not possible without modifying gitweb, unless you use
symlinks in place of real repositories, i.e. if you have authz.git in
$projectroot being symlink to authz.git/.git or even authz/.git (which
might be somewhere else).

For example I have /home/local/scm/git.git be symlink to ~/git/.git

The longer explanation (which probably should made into gitweb/README
or gitweb/INSTALL) is that gitweb is meant to deal with _bare_ 
repositories; gitweb doesn't touch and doesn't examine working area
of "live" (non-bare) repository. If you host git repositories (like
kernel.org, freedesktop.org or repo.or.cz) you usually host them bare
(public repositories should be bare); but you might want to have
gitweb for your own repository too.
