As usual there's more documentation than code.
Unlike usual, however, this isn't completely tested. Please read the
documentation for details of what works, what doesn't, what has been
tested, what hasn't, and so on.
The log message format has changed. All log messages now have a common
prefix (timestamp, user, IP). This is followed by $SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND
(or, in one special case, the name of the user's login shell). Any
further text appears after this (currently this only happens in the case
of a successful push -- one for each ref pushed successfully)
the commits leading up to v1.5 caused the data format to change (we
added a rule sequence number).
This in turn caused a problem for people who may have installed using
the "system install / user setup" mode of install (which includes people
who used RPM/DEB to install it) -- they would now have to *manually* run
"gl-setup" once after the rpm/deb upgrade.
This commit *tries* to mitigate this problem by recording a data format
version number in the compiled output file. On any access to that file,
if the version number is not found or is found to be not equal to the
current version, gl-setup is run again.
The reason I say "*tries*" is that the exact command used to do this is
a bit of a hack for now. However, if it works for Fedora and Debian,
I'm going to leave it at that :)
There has been a format change to the compiled output file. As the
CHANGELOG says:
Upgrading to v1.5 from any version prior to v1.5 requires an extra
step for people who installed gitolite using the "system install /
user setup" method described in doc/0-INSTALL.mkd. For such
installations, after the administrator has upgraded gitolite
system-wide, each "gitolite host" user must run `gl-setup` once
(without any arguments).
This is *not* an issue if you installed using src/gl-easy-install.
