I like the idea of making the commits unobtrusively visible in the
output page. This proposal looks a good step forward, but I'm sure we
can improve a little bit more. For example, can we make the SHA1 hash
for each commit be a link to the gitweb page? (Does this require
pattern matching in the XLST rule?) Also, when there's more than one
commit in one entry, it'd be better to have them on separate lines
rather than run together in a single line.
Thanks!
