Change git_get_project_config to run git-config only once per repository, without changing its signature (its calling convention). This means for example that it returns 'true' or 'false' when called with second argument '--bool', and not true or false value. Instead of calling 'git config [<type>] --get gitweb.<key>' once for each config variable, call 'git config -z -l' only once, parsing and saving its output to %config variable. This makes possible to add new per repository configuration without paying cost of forking once per variable checked. We can now allow repository description and repository URLs to be stored in config file without badly affecting gitweb performance. For now only configuration variables for 'gitweb' section are stored. Multiple values for single configuration variable are stored as anonymous array reference; configuration variable with no value is stored as undef. Converting configuration variable values to boolean or integer value are done in Perl. Results differ from git-config in the fact that no conversion error is ever raised. For boolean values no value, 'true' (any case) and 'false' (any case) are considered true, numbers are true if not zero; all other values (even invalid for bool) are considered false. For integer values value suffix of 'k', 'm', or 'g' following decimal number will cause the value to be multiplied by 1024, 1048576, or 1073741824; other values are returned as-is, only whitespace stripped.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// GIT - the stupid content tracker //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "git" can mean anything, depending on your mood. - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant. - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang. - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room. - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License. It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano. Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions. See Documentation/tutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and "man git-commandname" for documentation of each command. CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt. Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/ including full documentation and Git related tools. The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites. The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
