I fetched it and compared with the result of applying this series; it appears that the version fetched from there is full of random whitespace issues, e.g. ('$' added by "cat -e")

diff --git b/Documentation/gitweb.txt a/Documentation/gitweb.txt$

The series seems to have been rebased on a more recent 'master' and does
not match the "since commit..." stated above (not a major offense; just
mentioning as I noticed it).

In any case, I've queued the one from the mailing list. Thanks.
