gitweb: Document features better
This expands gitweb/README to talk some more about GITWEB_CONFIG, moves feature-specific documentation in gitweb.cgi to the inside of the %features array, and adds some short description of all the features. Signed-off-by: Petr Baudis <pasky@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>

Runtime gitweb configuration
|
||||||
|
----------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can adjust gitweb behaviour using the file specified in `GITWEB_CONFIG`
|
||||||
|
(defaults to 'gitweb_config.perl' in the same directory as the CGI).
|
||||||
|
See the top of 'gitweb.cgi' for the list of variables and some description.
|
||||||
|
The most notable thing that is not configurable at compile time are the
|
||||||
|
optional features, stored in the '%features' variable. You can find further
|
||||||
|
description on how to reconfigure the default features setting in your
|
||||||
|
`GITWEB_CONFIG` or per-project in `project.git/config` inside 'gitweb.cgi'.
