That commit (8984ae8) was only moving files from subdirectory
./frontend/php/register2/ to ./frontend/php/register/ :

 commit 8984ae89ee1a98924a63f3b2ea699edb22605262

   php: fix 'project registraion' directory hack (register2)

   Previously, new project registration code was in
     ./frontend/php/register2/*.php
   and an apache alias hid it with:
     Alias /register /opt/savannah/savane/frontend/php/register2/

   1. Removed the old,unused registration code in ./register/ .
   2. moved the 3 php files from ./register2/ to ./register/ .

So every modified line looks like I modified it (with 'git blame'),
but in fact that line was commented out before (in 
./frontend/php/register2/index.php).

A simple way to examine this is to checkout one commit before
said commit, then do 'git blame':

   $ git checkout 8984ae^1
   HEAD is now at d23caef... sv_membersh.in: improve BZR settings

   $ git blame frontend/php/register2/index.php
   ...
   18ddd313 (Sylvain Beucler 2008-03-30 17:47:33 +0200  58) } else {
   18ddd313 (Sylvain Beucler 2008-03-30 17:47:33 +0200  59)        # get 
site-specific content
   18ddd313 (Sylvain Beucler 2008-03-30 17:47:33 +0200  60) #      
utils_get_content("register/index");
   18ddd313 (Sylvain Beucler 2008-03-30 17:47:33 +0200  61) }
   ...

And based on that, I think the content file 
'/etc/savane/content/gnu-content/register/index'
has not been used for a long, long time.

Hope this helps,
happy to discuss this further.
