I guess this is technically speaking complete nonstandard addition to git :) but I have added the following to the script that generates http://www.kernel.org/git/:
If there is a plain text file called "description" in the .git directory, it will appear on that webpage.

That's a nice idea. We may add the owner of the repo to this file too? Or where does your script know that from the permissions? Is the projects overview page updating itself?
Here is a new gitweb.cgi version that integrates with that page. The own project browser is removed now and the top-link points now to your link-list.
!! It already uses the new binaries with the git-* prepended. !!
See it working here: http://ehlo.org/~kay/git/
Get the cgi from here: ftp://ehlo.org/git/gitweb.cgi
!! Just remove lines 26-30, which are the settings to run on my box. !!
Thanks, Kay

We've put a new version online. It's almost complete for a first basic version and Christian and me can go back to "real" work now. :)
The version running on kernel.org shows a broken commit time, so it would be nice, if it can be replaced.
Thanks, Kay
