Re: [PATCH] gitweb: tree view: eliminate redundant "blob"

From: Petr Baudis <hidden>

Dear diary, on Tue, Sep 26, 2006 at 10:54:49AM CEST, I got a letter
where Jakub Narebski [off-list ref] said that...
I'd rather not. The fact that the file name and tree name is link,
and the fact that commit title and tag title is link is a _convenience_.
Not always it is visible (without mouseover) that it is link.
And it is _not_ visible in the case of files!
Then that should be fixed.

And directories should have trailing slash in their name in the tree
listing, for people with non-UNIX background who don't understand the
ls -l like output.
And for example for commits and heads there are two possible
views, commit and commitdiff for commit, shortlog and log for head,
of which we arbitrary chose one for the subject link. So in that
case the additional self link is needed. I'd rather have both.
For commits and heads, I agree. But that's not what this patch does.
And for consistency I'd rather always have visible form default
self link/
A parse error kicked me off here, sorry.


(I'm personally kind of ambivalent to the change.)
