git-browser is an experimental gitk-like web interface which was developed in December 2005 by Artem Khodush <greenkaa@gmail.com> and then largely forgotten and abandoned. User interface is done in JavaScript, and is rather heavy on the client side. Server-side scripting is done in Perl (and uses gitweb IIRC).

I don't think there is existing demo deployment remaining...
