Hello everybody,
cgit is great and I enjoy it a lot. However it has one drawback compared to
gitweb: The idle column in repository listing shows the age of a
(configurable) file from the repository. I think that is stupid behavior as I
have a lot of "0 min." entries if I run "git gc" on my repositories or the
date since last push or pull otherwise.
In contrast to that gitweb shows the time since the last commit. I would
prefer to have that in cgit as well. Any chance to get that? Or is there any
good reason why the idle column is as is?

This was discussed a couple of months ago [1]. You can use a hook and
agefile to make CGit behave like GitWeb as described in that message.

Ah, great! Looks like I misunderstood the agefile option.
Perhaps someone should add a note to the man page, probably I am not the only
one suffering this problem.

How about something like this?

Actually if you want it to behave like gitweb you'll need to use
something more like:
git for-each-ref --sort=-committerdate --format='%
(committerdate:iso8601)' \
--count=1 refs/heads > info/lastactivity
Since gitweb.perl actually uses:
open($fd, "-|", git_cmd(), 'for-each-ref',
'--format=%(committer)',
'--sort=-committerdate',
'--count=1',
'refs/heads') or return;
to get the timestamp which it uses to compute the age string.
