This move should make gitweb's JavaScript code easier to maintain. For better webapp performance it is recommended[1][2][3] to combine JavaScript files. Do it during build time (in gitweb/Makefile), by straight concatenation of files into gitweb.js file (which is now ignored as being generated). This means that there are no changes to gitweb script itself - it still uses gitweb.js or gitweb.min.js, but now generated.
