* A 'snapshot' request to "gitweb" honors If-Modified-Since: header,
based on the commit date.
* Because "sh" on the user's PATH may be utterly broken on some
systems, run-command API now uses SHELL_PATH, not /bin/sh, when

* "git clean -d -f" (not "-d -f -f") is supposed to protect nested
working trees of independent git repositories that exist in the
