Gitweb experts,
I've seen the following error on all git web deployments I've tried,
including the Linux Kernel and Android:
/android/git /
404 - No such project
Reproduce this by following this this link from the Gmail web app:
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=blob;f=core/java/android/hardware/SensorManager.java
Pasting the same link into a browser's address bar yields a valid
page. Even reloading it yields a valid page.
Any ideas? I couldn't find the bug tracker for gitweb.
Thanks,
Jesse

I think the issue is Gmail encodes the ";" as %3B. This confuses
gitweb. IMHO, its a bug in Gmail, Gmail shouldn't be encoding ; as %3B
when it creates the anchor.
