Is HEAD for that repo the most recent stable branch, or (as gitweb makes it look) Linus's head. I'd expect a "-stable" repo to point at the most recent stable commit, not the most recent development commit. And I'd also expect gitweb's summary page to show the shortlog for HEAd. One of my assumptions are being broken and I don't like it. It leaves me all confused...
(I'd just clone your repo and look for myself, but I'm still pulling Linus's tree for the first time and I don't have a fast connection.)
