I guess that the problem is that no proper mapping exists. That's why
I see the following in /var/log/httpd/error_log:

[Tue Jun 24 16:31:52 2008] [error] [client 172.16.0.7] File does not
exist: /var/www/html/pub

What do I need to add in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ in order to set the
mapping to /pub/git instead of /var/www/html/pub ? Is there an example
that shows how to map?

IMO the simplest way is to create a symlink 'pub' in /var/www/html directory
pointing to /pub and to add 'Options FollowSymLinks' to <Directory /> in httpd.conf.

Another solution (not necessary simplest, but it might be preferred
from the security point of view) is to do some URL rewriting / redirection.
See your web server documentation for details...
