Before the home link, and yes, in the same manner. The extra breadcrumbs are for links to parent pages above gitweb in some hierarchy.

We could save a line that way:
-       print $cgi->a({-href => esc_url($home_link)}, $home_link_str) . " / ";
+       for my $crumb (@extra_breadcrumbs, [ $home_link_str => $home_link ]) {
+               print $cgi->a({-href => esc_url($crumb->[1])}, $crumb->[0]) . " / ";
+       }

I thought the fat arrow would be mnemonic enough, and less verbose.
