Gitweb is a Git repository web interface.

GitWeb is a Git repository web interface.

Using GitWeb you can browse directory trees at arbitrary revisions, view contents of files (blobs), see log or shortlog of a given branch, examine commits, commit messages and changes made by a given commit. GitWeb can generate feeds in RSS or Atom format. You can get any given version of a file; if not disabled you can download a snapshot of a given version of a project (project tree at given revision). You can search (if it is not disabled) for commits by an author, added to repository by a comitter, commit with commit message (commit description) which includes some text.

Gitweb: how to only list the git repositories and nothing else (like log, shortlog, summary, tree)?

I have gitweb correctly displaying all the git repositories in the gitolite server. But I want to completely exclude the options to look at logs, summary, shortlogs from the web view. Is there a way to do this? Thanks.
