I have very preliminary work, where gitweb uses @enabled_committags as list
of committags to use, and %committags_info for actual committags info.
Examples of committags includes current linking of commit sha1,
gitweb-xmms2 linking of BUG(n) and FEATURE(n) to site-wide based URL
(Mantis), and RELEASE x.y.z to site-wide based URL (Wiki); perhaps "bug n"
to site-wide/project-wide URL (Bugzilla)... any other ideas?
