I don't know what this is for (well, except replacing 'No such directory'
error message by 'No such project'). If you want only some of repositories
to be present in gitweb, you simply use $projects_list _file_ (e.g. using
new "project_index" action to generate it) and edit it to contain only the
repositories you want to be shown in gitweb.

Unless of course the person who hosts gitweb, and the person who owns
repository are uncommunicado, and you want the power of deciding if
repository is present in gitweb or not to be placed in the hands of
repository owner. Still, gitweb must be configured for this.
