Comment (by mk.fg):

 I vaguely remember that the images were displayed on docs in the past, so
 I'd guess maybe some configuration bits from darcs plugin were not applied
 to git.

 Ideally, I imagine it might have a whitelist of mime-types (like
 "image/*") or file patterns (like "*.{jpg,png,svg}") to serve raw, but
 lacking that I can imagine a following workaround (nginx config syntax):

 {{{
 location ~ ^/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/git/docs/(\S+\.(svg|png|jpg|gif))$ {
   uwsgi_param REQUEST_URI /trac/tahoe-lafs/export/master/git/docs/$1;
   uwsgi_param PATH_INFO /trac/tahoe-lafs/export/master/git/docs/$1;

   uwsgi_pass unix:/run/uwsgi/trac.sock;
 }

 location / {
   ... block for the rest of the urls
 }
 }}}

 (nginx seem to be advertised in the response headers)

 I think it'd only introduce a little bit of unexpected behavior for users
 who might browse git tree and expect intermediate page for images, not the
 raw entities, but I think it shouldn't be that much of a problem either
 (browsers seem to handle images w/o html wrapping).
