The gitweb included in the 1.6.0.6 packages for F-10 should look mostly the same as the gitweb used on kernel.org. As JH mentioned, you can install that with 'yum install gitweb'. If you need to modify them, the options and css should let you do what you need without editing the perl script.

If you do want to use 1.6.2.1, the rawhide packages should rebuild for F-10 just fine (do note that the rawhide packages finally caught up and moved the git-* binaries out of $PATH, something that isn't done in the stock F-10 packages).

The fedora rawhide git packages are at:
