Will be a nice enanchment in nbviewer to have the capabilities to render ipython notebooks from a directory stored in a “non github” git repository.
The same way how it now works with github repositories.

The official webviewer provided by GIT is gitweb, I temporary added the notebook examples available here

Nbviewer works great using the text input box in nbviewer to point to the notebook url, e.g. :

but it doesn’t work if i try to :

http://nbviewer.ipython.org/url/webgit.epinux.com/?p=project.git;a=blob_plain;f=notebook/Basic Output.ipynb;hb=HEAD

Listing is all implemented via the GitHub REST API. Does gitweb offer an API for listing trees, etc? If not, then I don't think there's any reasonable way to support it.

For what i know webgit doesn't offer such kind of API.
What's the response that nbviewer is expecting when the url used as input point to a directory ?
If make sense, i can try to build a small web-app that try to mimic the github restuffull api, does it make sense ?

We expect this API. If gitweb doesn't have its own API, then I don't think it makes sense to add a GitHub-mimicking service.
