Looks like the debian install of git sets $projectroot globally in a way that confuses instaweb . I removed the $projectroot line from etc/gitweb. Conf and the error went away.
I don't know Git about Git, but you're probably missing the ability to execute on the directory in question, chmod +X it.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
