[PATCH] gitweb: Show project's README.html if available

From: Petr Baudis <pasky@suse.cz>
Date: Oct 24, 2006, 03:23 UTC
Message-ID: <20061024032346.4185.85330.stgit@rover>

If the repository includes a README.html file, show it in the summary page. The usual "this should be in the config file" argument does not apply here since this can be larger and having such a big string in the config file would be impractical.

I don't know if this is suitable upstream, but it's one of the repo.or.cz custom modifications that I've thought could be interesting for others as well.

Compared to the previous patch, this adds the '.html' extension to the filename, so that it's clear it is, well, HTML.
