Re: [RFCv3 1/2] gitweb: add patch view

But we have also 'snapshot' feature, which like 'patches' is not simply
on/off but is configurable feature, like 'patches' adds new action and
does modify existing actions only by adding extra links... and which is
enabled by default.

If my "git log" is telling the true story, "snapshot" was introduced in
cb9c6e5 (gitweb: Support for snapshot, 2006-08-17) and it was disabled by
default.

The "feature" mechanism was introduced after that, with ddb8d90 (gitweb:
Make blame and snapshot a feature., 2006-08-20).  To avoid surprises,
"blame" were marked disabled by default to match the then-current default.
"snapshot" somehow ended up enabled with that change, though, which might
have been a mistake.

But "we erred before" is not a good excuse to deliberately err again, is
it?
