[PATCH v5 18/28] http-backend: use mod_alias instead of mod_rewrite

From
Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>

In-Reply-To
<1256950067-27938-1-git-send-email-spearce@spearce.org>
From: Mark Lodato <lodatom@gmail.com>

In the git-http-backend documentation, use mod_alias exlusively, instead of using a combination of mod_alias and mod_rewrite. This makes the example slightly shorted and a bit more clear.
