Gitweb
I posted on another subject before and thanks to all who replied to that, Now I want to put gitweb on my server and have read everything to do it but cant seem to find the files. I know that it is supposed to be bundled with git but I am not the one who installed git, so is there anywhere I can get the gitweb files?

First, what operating system, and in the case of Linux what distribution do you use? For example both Fedora Core and Debian (so also all Debian-derived distributions like Ubuntu) have gitweb* package; so it should be very simple to install this.
Because installing CGI script (or legacy mod_perl script) differs from distribution to distribution, therefore stock RPMS from kernel.org doesn't create gitweb package. So you would have to either download source tarball, or clone git repository, read gitweb/INSTALL and then run
$ make gitweb/gitweb.cgi <options> or $ make configure && ./configure && make gitweb/gitweb.cgi and simply copy the files (there is no install target for gitweb) as described, ensuring that web server is configured to run CGI scripts (or mod_perl scripts).
You can see gitweb at work at http://git.debian.org, and modified gitweb at http://git.kernel.org and http://repo.or.cz.
