[RFC/PATCH 0/5] gitweb: Proof of concept of PSGI interface

The major goal of this series is to make it possible for gitweb to run as PSGI application, even if non-native (emulated).

PSGI[1][2] is an interface between Perl web applications and web servers. It is accompanied by Plack, a Perl module and toolkit that contains PSGI middleware (e.g. for serving static files), helpers (e.g. 'plackup' command line launcher) and adapters to web servers (e.g. to CGI, FastCGI, or mod_perl). PSGI and Plack are inspired by Python's WSGI and Ruby's Rack.

First two patches are independent improvements, and make sense even outside this patch series. Last patch is making use of gitweb as PSGI in "git instaweb --httpd=plackup".

Jakub Narebski (5):
  gitweb: Jump do DONE_REQUEST not DONE_GITWEB on error
  gitweb: Prepare for splitting gitweb
  gitweb: Enable running gitweb as PSGI app, via CGI::Emulate::PSGI
  gitweb.psgi: Allow passing arguments to Plack::Runner
  git-instaweb: Use new PSGI interface mode of gitweb
