Hi,
ok it's starting to look like spam ;-)
I uploaded a new version of wit to http://www.absolutegiganten.org/wit

Wit is a web interface for git. Right now it includes: views of blob, commit and tree objects, generating patches for the commits, downloading of gz or bzip2 tarballs of trees.

It's easy to setup and a simple stand alone server configuration is included.

Changes:
* first release which is tested on the current kernel.git archive
* fix diffTree output by using -r
* enhance the patch generation to work against multiple parents
* remove temporary files after diff generation
* fix the tar generation by using the recursive ls-tree variant
* disable colored link on tree objects
I still hope that I'll get feedback someday ;-)

Why not work together with Kay's tool:

That one looks really nice. One major feature I'd love to see would be a show all diffs link for a changeset.

Hi,

wit only has "show all diffs" right now but I like the show file diffs of Kay's tool. I'll implement it tonight ;-)

It's working now:
  http://ehlo.org/~kay/gitweb.pl

Many thanks to Christian Gierke for all the interface work, the nice layout and the git logo. Thanks for the colored diff to Ken Brush.

The script itself is available on the same box by ftp.

Thanks, Kay

Linus likes it ;-)

Nope. I actually like the one on gitweb.

Well if it should be official for git, Linus has to "bless" it imho.
> Have an alternative one?

Well, yes. I would like something, which has something to do with the original linux mascot.

Like a fish (though that is already used by some other projects) - penguins like fish! (Tux too? Or more Linus' fingers ;)? )

Or perhaps even a wife for Tux, which helps him organizing and managing?
... Tux & Git having nice holidays on an island? ...
Hm, but what is cogito then ...

I think the logo should be a tortoise. Why? Because it's somewhat ironic. One of Linus' complaints about SCMs in-general and one of his praises of BitKeeper was performance/speed. The tortoise is typified as being a slow and cumbersome animal. Also, the hare, the tortoise' competition, is typified as being quick and possessing fecundity (things that you'd want to identify with "git"... and the job of any decent C programmer is to obfuscate meaning when possible J/K). 

Oh, and there's a picture of a tortoise named "git.gif"...

Perhaps not.  Hah

Kay + Christian + Ken,
That looks really great!.

One suggestion: when drilling down through the tree it would be nice if the context of the parents could be dragged along too. So, for example, when displaying the BLOB, you could display its name because you have kept enough context around to allow that.

This would also allow you to extend the functionality so that when you are at the BLOB level you could navigate to a history of changes to just that BLOB, at least from the point of view of the commit that got you there.

Also, have you considered generating pure XML from the database and relying on XSLT (either at the server, or preferably at the client - they all do it well these days!) to do the HTML rendering?
