Hello,
I am wondering about a possibly easy bug which you may be aware of.

For some reason if I place a symbolic link in a directory under the project root, gitweb is no longer able to find the project. I was looking through the .cgi file but I don't know enough perl to fix the problem myself.

Let me know if this makes sense. Cheers Marco
