[Qemu-devel] qemu-git web viewer?

[Rob Landley]

Is there a web viewer for the git repository?

The download page links to http://git.qemu.org/qemu.git but that's 404,
and http://git.qemu.org says I "don't have permission to access /".

My plan is to upgrade cgit later today FWIW.  If anyone has experience 
with other git front ends, I'd appreciate hearing about it.  Since 
qemu.org has pretty high traffic, I wanted something that cached 
aggressively.

Other than this current issue, I've had pretty good experiences with 
cgit so far.
