Well, hgweb internally has no idea what an 'atom feed' is. The feed
styles are just a different template style like paper vs gitweb and the
feed links are just pointers with an atom style parameter added.

So you can consult the corresponding parts of the other styles to see
how it's done. Looks like you wanted "branches" (a legacy name from our
ancient implemention of branches).

Yes, you just need to modify all the templates with atom links to point
to your new style. So no, not really. Maybe a version control tool would
be handy here?
