Sitaram Chamarty 198dcfd4c8 POST_CREATE efficiency... (please read below if you care)
The POST_CREATE trigger is called when

  * a user creates a new "wild" repo,
  * a user uses the "perms" command, and
  * a user uses the "fork" command.

The trigger calls 3 programs (see rc file):

    post-compile/update-git-configs
    post-compile/update-gitweb-access-list
    post-compile/update-git-daemon-access-list

(They are also called by the POST_COMPILE trigger, by the way.)

However, the 3 programs shown are a bit wasteful -- they run through
*all* the repos when really only *one* repo has been affected.

This patch

  * passes the repo name to the 3 programs (duh!)

  * adds the optimisation to the first of the 3 programs listed above
    (the one dealing with 'git config').

For the other two programs (gitweb and git-daemon), you have 3 choices:

  * if you don't have too many repos, ignore the problem.

  * take out the 2nd and 3rd lines from the POST_CREATE list in the rc
    file, so they don't run.

    Then run 'gitolite trigger POST_COMPILE' from cron at regular
    intervals.  (Note that is POST_COMPILE not POST_CREATE!)  However,
    this means that gitweb and daemon permissions won't be current
    immediately after someone adds a new repo or sets perms etc.; they
    get updated only on the next cron run.

  * patch the programs to add this optimisation (and send me the
    patches).  The optimisation would check if arg-1 ($1 in shell,
    $ARGV[0] in perl) is 'POST_CREATE', and if it is, take the *next*
    argument as a repo name that may have changed.

thanks to EugeneKay for catching this

Sitaram Chamarty c3ec518cef fork command, and some core changes to make it work...
- access command allows checking ^C
  - ^C check will fail when the repo exists

Sitaram Chamarty cf3dd885fc (some docfixes) 2012-04-21 22:29:56 +05:30
Thomas Hager 3a7b547759 replaced /bin/echo with printf, Solaris echo doesn't recognize -n
gitolite setup fails to check admin pubkey, because $text always
contains 2 or more lines after tsh_try() (the key and -n).

[committer adds:
    I wasn't sure if 'printf' would work on cygwin, so I chose what
    looked like a safer option, but apparently it wasn't safe enough and
    fell afoul of Solaris.

    Anyway I managed to check (using a small test program) with someone
    who runs gitolite on cygwin, and it works.

    If you're wondering why I didn't just use echo followed by chomp(),
    that would of course have been the easy way out but I wanted to see
    how you'd do it without a post-processing option.  It became a
    frustrating challenge of sorts because it seems such a trivial thing!

Thomas Hager aaccb367ec changes to support Solaris default shell
Solaris default bourne shell does not recognize $(), and does not allow
exporting a variable and assigning a value to it in one step.

Sitaram Chamarty 273e6fd627 "fake Unix" strikes again...
The fix is easy enough, but I hate having to code work-arounds for
proprietary OSs when the same code works fine on Linux and BSD.

/me wisely avoids words like posix in his rant ;-)

Thanks to Franck Zoccolo for help in finding what the problem was and
when and why it occurred.

----

Someday there will be some issue that requires a fix with significant
code change (or worse, a change that is incompatible with Linux), and I
will probably refuse.  Of course, I will be properly regretful about my
inability to fix it.[1]

Sitaram Chamarty 04a6f75e5c (doc updates, mostly migration)
- migration and non-core reachable from master-toc now
  - migration flow changed.  install.mkd, migration section, is [migr]
    now, drives the whole thing now, links to g2migr
  - more details on how to wipe out old gitolite

plus some minor fixes
2012-04-13 15:35:13 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 720729e4b4 (minor) do not run gitolite query-rc from *perl* programs!
I must have blindly converted from some shell-thinking/shell-code for
these to have slipped through!

(found when doing an audit of all system, exec, ``, qx, and tsh_)

Sitaram Chamarty afc2c14a65 (minor) t/reset and test scripts were not getting a VERSION file 2012-04-11 19:06:13 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 4c5bb27739 pre-existing repo instructions were WRONG...
- fix them
  - but (at the cost of some efficiency) try to compensate if the admin
    did not follow those instructions, by running hook_1 anyway
2012-04-11 19:03:17 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 8c28fd2241 D...
(manually tested, no test script)

the whimsically named "D" command deletes repos, and is the opposite of
the "C" permission that enables the user to create one in the first
place.  See the usage message for user info, and look in the comments of
the code itself for admin info.

Sitaram Chamarty bbaacfaee7 (mostly) doc changes
- minor typo fixes, clarifications, etc.

  - keep sts.html url consistent, because many people link to
    http://sitaramc.github.com/gitolite/sts.html

  - create a common migration doc, so the old 'migr.html' does not 404
    when g3 docs become "main"

  - progit doc done

  - add gitosis convert script (FWIW)

  - a minor comment fix to Sugar.pm

Sitaram Chamarty 48f1e7c781 'gitolite git-config' should print only value when regex not used...
not repo<tab>key<tab>value.  Also, honor '-n' (no newline)

Sitaram Chamarty d3610191d3 supporting DOS and fake Unix...
I was very, very, tempted to say "sorry; not supported".  Sadly,
prudence won over juvenile glee...

PS: DOS == dominant operating system

Sitaram Chamarty 6e5c9954fd upgrade instructions forgot about the VERSION file update! 2012-04-06 17:26:27 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 057506b73f remove quotes around option values
for example, this now works (it used to save the quotes also)

    option mirror.master = "ilh-95"
2012-04-06 17:26:27 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty e1c7e546aa cpu-time command -> CpuTime trigger module...
...now that triggers are not restricted to external programs and can be
perl code called by gitolite-shell (thus in the same PID), there's no
need to compute and pass along the times() array.

This also changes the arguments to POST_GIT; they're now the same as
PRE_GIT's.
2012-04-06 17:26:27 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty de40461d9a document overhaul
- explicit 'list' gives way to mindmap, ...
  - 'fm2mt.pl' to produce master-toc.mkd from the mindmap
  - mkdoc no longer ignores master-toc.mkd, calls fm2mt.pl itself

and LOTS of changes to the actual docs
