Fixed. 

Basically, for http: to work, the http server shouldn't call gitweb handler. So, a different URL
is needed for gitweb and for git pull... Also, I needed to enable an post-update hook to be sure that
some references are generated after a push.

I've updated the gitweb to display the proper URL's.

Basically, the gitweb interface is available via http://git.linuxtv.org. 

So, for uvcvideo, we have:
	http://git.linuxtv.org/pinchartl/uvcvideo.git	(gitweb interface, for browsing)

For adding a remote to that tree, you should use either:
	git remote add uvcvideo git://linuxtv.org/pinchartl/uvcvideo.git
		or
	git remote add uvcvideo http://linuxtv.org/git/pinchartl/uvcvideo.git

Both is working, but using the git: URL is better. The http: URL should be used only when
behind a firewall that blocks the git port (tcp port 9418).
