Interesting idea, I like it. However, I see a problem in the proposed
implementation versus the spec. According to the spec:

"""
The "title" is optional, but recommended if there are multiple, different
repositories linked to on one page. It is a human-readable description of the
repository.
[...]
If there are multiple repositories listed, without titles, tools should assume
they are different repositories.
"""

In this patch you do NOT add titles to the rel=vcs links, which means that
everything works fine only if there is a single URL for each project. If a
project has different URLs, it's going to appear multiple times as _different_
projects to a spec-compliant reader.

A possible solution would be to make @git_url_list into a map keyed by the
project name and having the description and repo URL(s) as values.

Since there is the possibility of different projects having the same
description (e.g. the default one), the link title could be composed of
"$project - $description" rather than simply $description.

Note that both in summary and in project list view you already retrieve the
description, so there are no additional disk hits.

I assume you mean git_get_project_url_list()?
