When the option is in use, gitweb_config.perl generated by git-instaweb won't be overwritten. Usage: git instaweb --reuse-config Example: When I use git-instaweb, it is tiring to add customised configuration (like highlight featues enabling) to the gitweb_config.perl file everytime I initiate the server. With this,it's enough to use this option.
