Comment (by bonefish):
Adjusted the summary to be less rude.
Regarding the annotate/blame feature, that's something I've already
missed, too. I took a look at the cgit sources and it isn't trivial to
add. cgit uses the git sources as a static library. The blame
implementation is, however, not exposed by git, but statically implemented
in the `blame` command source file. So one would have to copy most of it,
which probably wouldn't be accepted as a patch.
What I also miss is syntax highlighting. That's a configuration issue
only, though. A `source-filter` command has to be set in cgitrc that
performs the highlighting. There's
[http://hjemli.net/git/cgit/tree/filters/syntax-highlighting.sh an
example] how that can be done using the [http://www.andre-
simon.de/doku/highlight/en/highlight.html highlight script]. I was tempted
to set that up, but since there's no official ("stable") openSUSE
repository containing `highlight`, I was unsure how to install it. Add an
"unstable" repository? Or would be better be added to the "haiku-admin"
repository?
