When gitweb is used as a DirectoryIndex, it attempts to strip PATH_INFO on its own, as $cgi->url() fails to do so. However, it fails to account for the fact that PATH_INFO has already been URL-decoded by the web server, but the value returned by $cgi->url() has not been. This causes the stripping to fail whenever the URL contains encoded characters. To see this in action, setup gitweb as a DirectoryIndex and then use it on a repository with a directory containing a space in the name. Navigate to tree view, examine the gitweb generated html and you'll see a link such as: <a href="/test.git/tree/HEAD:/directory with spaces">directory with spaces</a> When clicked on, the browser will URL-encode this link, giving a $cgi->url() of the form: /test.git/tree/HEAD:/directory%20with%20spaces While PATH_INFO is: /test.git/tree/HEAD:/directory with spaces Fix this by calling unescape() on both $my_url and $my_uri before stripping PATH_INFO from them.

GIT - the stupid content tracker
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a
mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks
Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the
documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help
commandname".
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is
installed).
Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/
including full documentation and Git related tools.
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read
Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission).
To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in
the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are
available at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival
sites.
The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
