2020-01-13	cgit: drop cgit_parse_hdr wrapper
	Unlike PublicInbox::GitHTTPBackend::git_parse_hdr, cgit_parse_hdr does nothing interesting besides calling parse_cgi_headers. So just make a reference to PublicInbox::GitHTTPBackend::parse_cgi_headers and call it.
2020-01-01	wwwstatic: add directory listing + index.html support
	It's now possible to use WwwStatic as a standalone PSGI app to serve static files and recreate the award-winning web design of https://public-inbox.org/ :>
2020-01-01	wwwstatic: move r(...) functions here
	Remove redundant "r" functions for generating short error responses. These responses will no longer be cached by clients, which is probably a good thing since most errors ought to be transient, anyways. This also fixes error responses for our cgit wrapper when static files are missing.
2020-01-01	cgit: type declaration for PublicInbox::Git
	AFAIK this doesn't do anything for Perl internally since PublicInbox::Git doesn't "use fields", but it makes it easier for humans readers to follow and ensure we're not passing unblessed or non-ref scalars to PublicInbox::GitHTTPBackend::serve.
2019-12-27	config: each_inbox: pass user arg to callback
	Another place where we can replace anonymous subs with named subs by passing a user-supplied arg.
2019-12-27	githttpbackend: split out wwwstatic
	Make it easier to share code between our GitHTTPBackend and Cgit packages, for now, and possibly other packages in the future. We can avoid inline_object and anonymous subs at the same time, reducing per-request memory overhead.
2019-12-26	qspawn: psgi_return: allow non-anon parse_hdr callback
	Callers can supply an arg to parse_hdr, now, eliminating the need for closures to capture local variables.
2019-04-25	cgit: improve handling of cgit data path
	Document `publicinbox.cgitdata' config directive, but allow it to be unspecified and/or missing for installations which do not wish to serve static data at all. For users installing cgit from source to their home directory, we can usually infer the cgit data path based on the cgit.cgi binary path, even.
2019-04-15	cgit: serve static css, logo, favicon directly
	We can reduce the configuration needed to run cgit by reusing the static file handling logic of the dumb git HTTP protocol. I hate logos and icons, so don't expect public-inbox.org or 80x24.org to ever have those to waste users' bandwidth with :P But I expect other users to find this useful.
2019-04-04	cgit: use a dedicated named limiter
	I mainly need this to enforce RLIMIT_CPU (and RLIMIT_CORE) when requests come which generate giant, unrealistic diffs. Per-coderepo limiters may be added in the future. But for now, I need to prevent cgit from monopolizing resources on my dinky server.
2019-04-04	cgit: support running cgit as a standalone CGI
	We depend on git-http-backend for smart HTTP clone support, however; since cgit does not support smart clones natively. WWW.pm will be able to cascade down to this as a 404 handler in the future.
