Bah.. It seems I attached this as MIME, sorry about that. Here it is,
properly inlined this time:

Subject: [PATCH] contrib/hooks/post-receive-email: get description from
repo.git/config
When getting the project description, we first try gitweb.description
entry in repo.git/config, but repo.git/description takes precedence if
it exists. This behaviour mimics that of Gitweb, and is what we want
when using Gitolite, which deletes repo.git/description upon repo
creation and rather maintains a gitweb.description entry in
repo.git/config if a description is configured.
