Strange, it works for me (see below).

The default name of gitweb config file is gitweb_config.perl, not 
gitweb.conf.  Are you sure you are picking correct config file?

Try adding

  our $site_name = "foo";

to check if you are picking correct config file.

I get the following when running with config file that contains:

  our $version = "current";
  [...]
  our $site_name = "[localhost]";
  [...]
  our $base_url = "https://localhost/gitweb/";

$ gitweb-run.sh "" "/git.git"
  [...]
  <head>
  <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
  <meta name="generator" content="gitweb/current git/1.7.3.2.171.g8ccd7"/>
  <meta name="robots" content="index, nofollow"/>
  <title>[localhost] - git.git/summary</title>
  <base href="https://localhost/gitweb/" />
  [...]

So it works for me.
