It would be nice though, when the gitweb output would be readable
on non css-capable browsers (i.e. w3m) too.  At the moment, gitweb
is mostly usable - the only problematic case is code and diffs.
These are presented via div-tags so in a non-css browser, all spaces
are collapsed thereby removing all indentation.  Couldn't code
fragments be presented via (styled) pre-tags for backward compatibility?
Pretty please :)

Btw, while the css version looks nice, Opera seems to have extreme
performance problems with gitweb's project page when there are a lot
of repositories.  I.e. trying to view http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/
brings my system to its knees.  Turning off style sheets cures it
but then diffs are unusable ...

Ciao, ET.
