Currently the "index" page for gitweb installation is 'projects_list' page with _all_ the projects hosted. It is not split into pages, like for example 'log' or 'heads' views are; there were some patches for that, but would have to be redone as the area changed a bit since. It could have been replaced by projects search page... It is a bit of historical reason. -- Jakub Narebski Poland ShadeHawk on #git
