Hello,

> Any further ideas for other useful features?

a friend of mine was yesterday complained to me about not be able to see
which file was last touched in a given directory like it is possible
with viewcvs[1]. I told him that he should just call 'git whatchanged
-p'. And he answered back 'downloading 128Mbytes' for a few bytes
of history? I told him to address this list with his feature request, but
he didn't do so far. So I use this opportunity. Maybe something else
would be much more handier: Use gitweb to request the log and shortlog
of a directory tree, like git-whatchanged arch/i386 does for example.
Maybe it is already possible and I missed it?

[1] viewcvs prints the last touch of a a file in a directory and you can
tell it to sort after the date criteria:
