Subject: [PATCH] gitweb: Fix handling of $file_name in feed generation

The commit b6093a5c, by Robert Fitzsimons:
  "gitweb: Change atom, rss actions to use parse_commits."
forgot to pass $file_name parameter to parse_commits subroutine.

If git_feed is provided a file name, it ought to show only the history
affecting that file or a directory.  The title was being set
correctly, but all commits from history were being shown.

Three comments. First, authorship. Steven Walter didn't signoff his patch,
and the contents differs a bit from second chunk of his patch (see
comment below) and I have added infor about which commit introduced this
bug to the commit message. I have added my signoff, you can take this
patch as either mine or Steven authorship.


Second, I have discarded first chunk in Steven patch because it was too
intrusive. As I have said, it makes 'file_name' default argument,
unless overriden. While it made sense for 'project' parameter to be made
default parameter in href(), as almost all URLs in gitweb needed it,
more than half URLs does not need 'file_name' parameter. And some of
those URLs are present in a views which do use 'file_name'.

So if we want alternative URLs for a feed preserve 'file_name' parameter,
or we want RSS/Atom links for "file_name" kind of views, like 'tree',
'blob' or 'history' views, we should add 'file_name' parameter
explicitely, and not change href() to do it implicitely.

But as we are in stabilization (freeze) stage, I'd rather not add any new
features. This one just fixes a bug in gitweb.


Third, I'd rather not use "--full-history" for feeds. We use it in the
'history' view for backward compatibility reasons; I'd rather leave it
for extra options in the feed. But this is also for after the release.
