Hi,

On the main page of gitweb (the one that lists all projects), there's an "Owner" column. On my gitweb, it is empty for all projects. Where is this information taken from?

Here is how it looks on the server when I run 'ls -l':
drwxr-xr-x 7 erez.zilber linux 4096 Jun 25 17:36 my_test.git

Thanks, Erez
