[PATCH] gitweb: Avoid "Use of uninitialized value" errors (written to logs)

From: Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com>
Date: May 11, 2007, 23:35 UTC
Message-ID: <200705120135.30150.jnareb@gmail.com>

Try to avoid "Use of uninitialized value ..." errors, due to bad revision, incorrect filename, wrong object id, bad file etc. (wrong value of 'h', 'hb', 'f', etc. parameters). This avoids polluting web server errors log.

This is a bit of "bandaid" patch, as if possible the callers should
be corrected, and should check if there is something to pass along.
