  due to popular (Junio's) demand, I have set up a gitweb-oriented fork
of git at repo.or.cz:

        http://repo.or.cz/w/git/gitweb.git

  It is meant as a hub for various gitweb-related patches and
development efforts. So far it is pre-seeded by the patches repo.or.cz's
gitweb uses. It is divided to three main branches (StGIT patchstacks in
reality), where master is what Junio is gonna pull to git's master.

Using gitweb....
Since this is a patch stack, how do I get the summary log messages for
just the commits on the branch without getting the log messages for
the master repository mixed in? Would that give me a nice list of the
pending patches?

That's an excellent suggestion.  I'd love to see "fork" aware
gitweb myself.

If a project A is "forked" repo.or.cz style to a project B, what
often is interesting to see is what changes B has relative to A.

In other words, you would want to view all of B except what are
in A, something like:

$ gitk --all --not $(git for-each-ref --format='%(objectname)' refs/remotes/A)
