My gitweb over at http://git.oblomov.eu/ supports snapshots with
PATH_INFO just fine even without the need for this patch.

Really?  If I try to download a snapshot from your site, I get an empty
tarball (and the server appends an additional ".tar.gz" suffix to the
filename within the "Content-disposition" header).  For example:

$ wget -q -O - http://git.oblomov.eu/git/snapshot/v1.6.2.3.tar.gz | gzip -d | tar -t | wc -l
0

That's the bug which is fixed by my patch.

This gets weirder and weirder. I'm seeing the same behaviour with your
patch. I think I busted something the upgrade I was running this
morning. Even git archive on the command line gives me an empty tar.

I have no idea what happened. I rebuilt and reinstalled git and now
it's working again, and I see the problem too, and yes your patch
fixes it.
