From d661146ac2ada526e80dbb6234f8f8da6642ffcb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jakub Narebski Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2008 20:52:32 +0100 Subject: gitweb: Add info about $projectroot and $projects_list to gitweb/README Those two configuration variables are important enough that it is worth to explicitely write about them in the "Gitweb config file variables" section even if they are usually set during build by GITWEB_PROJECTROOT and GITWEB_LIST build (Makefile) configuration variables.
