* gb/gitweb-base (Sun Feb 15 10:18:36 2009 +0100) 1 commit
 - gitweb: fix wrong base URL when non-root DirectoryIndex

Errrr... isn't this already in 'master' as v1.6.2-rc1-3-g81d3fe9 ?

* jc/blame (Wed Jun 4 22:58:40 2008 -0700) 2 commits
 + blame: show "previous" information in --porcelain/--incremental
   format
 + git-blame: refactor code to emit "porcelain format" output

This gives Porcelains (like gitweb) the information on the commit _before_
the one that the final blame is laid on, which should save them one
rev-parse to dig further.  The line number in the "previous" information
may need refining, and sanity checking code for reference counting may
need to be resurrected before this can move forward.

I thought recent tig discussion may blow new life into it, but is this
unneeded?  If so I'd rather revert it (or discard after 1.6.2).

This would be nice to have for gitweb.
