Hi

I had some thoughts about the naming for each build / directory ; so 
far, it uses the unique id for the revision, which means the directory 
are not sorted in date order in ~/hatari. Also, UID might look a little 
"scary" to some people, compared to a simple number.

What about using the rev number instead ? It might be easier to 
understand and as it's a number, directory would be correctly sorted in 
~/hatari.

for example, hatari-6be31ec5ad6d would be hatari-rev6768 instead.
If a user tries your build and has a problem, it could be easier to 
report a problem with a specific build number than with its UID.

It would be also faster to match a build with the corresponding revision 
in the main source tree.

What do you think ?

Apart from that, it seems *.log files are not reported with the "text" 
mimetype anymore, but as binary, which means they can't be viewed from a 
browser, you need to open them with an external app when you click on 
one of them.
Could you check if the mimetype for "*.log" was not removed from your 
http server ? (it used to work before)
