Sitaram Chamarty ba39d93e28 (minor glitch in sudo adc)
thanks to jeff for finding it...

Sitaram Chamarty afbab1dd8d "sudo" adc
The sudo adc should make life easier for any admin wishing to run an adc
as some other user.

As a result, the rmrepo adc also goes back to its simple roots.  Now you
just run it via the sudo adc if you (as gitolite admin) needs to rmrepo
some user's repo.

Sitaram Chamarty c40622b302 gl-reflog adc: tighten permissions checks
- dont do anything if he doesn't even have read access
  - move the GL_USER check to the right place!  (to when you actually
    will be doing something)

That spurious check for GL_USER that we (re)moved would not only have
shown an incomplete set of log lines, it would have made the wrong log
line look like the "last" one.  (No real harm would result, of course,
since the update-ref would blow up due to the actual SHA being something
other than what it was expecting, but it would be confusing to the user)

Sitaram Chamarty 8a980a60bb tighten up argument handling in ADCs even more
More and more people are using ADCs, which I originally wrote just for
adventure-loving people ;-)

Sitaram Chamarty 67a72a3f5b added support for a post-repo-create hook (gl-post-init)

Sitaram Chamarty c18514e213 (minor) doc updates
inspired by various denizens of #git and the internet at large
2010-09-24 06:04:13 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 3f57f18ee2 wildrepos doc badly needed update due to new features:
- 79f0a5f ("(big one!) more than one wildcard may match a repo...")
    makes some of the dire warnings about this irrelevant
  - d1d2c3e and ad64f99 ("git config settings in wild repos: part 1" and
    "...part 2") makes this caveat also useless

While we were about it, we added a quick intro and tried to make some
other details a little clearer.

Sitaram Chamarty 37a6a6a7d3 towel needed more clarity
for people who don't get the continual reference to towels when talking
about the "gl-dont-panic" program, all I can say is that your education
is incomplete ;-)

Sitaram Chamarty 595410aa55 (http) first level error reporting now works
I didn't know that remote-curl.c requires 200 OK even if you want to
report an error.

With Ilari's patch at [1] you'll get a more readable message but it is
still good enough now.

Sitaram Chamarty cc8ccab924 (http) gitolite without ssh? smart http support is here!
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.

Sitaram Chamarty ec329ca13f (http) gl-setup changes...
- only admin name needed, not pubkey file
  - setup HOME from GITOLITE_HTTP_HOME

Sitaram Chamarty 52e0ed3488 (http) auth: handle REQUEST_URI and friends
TODO: if the verb doesn't actually contain "git-receive-pack", I am
assuming it is some sort of read.  The list in services[] in
http-backend.c does not seem to look like any other verb is a "write";
need to check this with someone.

For normal git commands:
  - PATH_INFO gives you the repo name
  - REQUEST_URI gives you the verb
  - we construct a fake SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND so the rest of the
    processing does not have to change

For our special commands:
  - PATH_INFO is actually the verb
  - QUERY_STRING has the parameters
  - we again fake out the SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND
  - we print the extra HTTP headers in anticipation of the actual output

Either way, we also fake out the SSH_CONNECTION so that the IP address
can get logged ok

And of course REMOTE_USER is now the incoming userid

Finally, at the end, we exec GIT_HTTP_BACKEND instead of the normal one

Sitaram Chamarty 7b633049be refactored and lifted out the line parse part from inside parse_conf_file
adapted from code by kpfleming@digium.com.  I basically cherry-picked
the top commit on "pu-work" (30068d1) on his fork at github, and made
some minor fixups to it
2010-09-04 15:03:06 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 5f342c0444 more doc revamp; some notes below
- all anchors prefixed by AUTO_ now
  - some bad links fixed (maybe still a few I didn't catch)
  - misc wording changes/additions (support section to README,
    "technical skills" section to install doc, etc).

Sitaram Chamarty 2cf382ca4e (minor) some doc typos 2010-09-03 09:02:47 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 07d07cc5f6 rmrepo alternative 2 was too lax
it would have allowed deleting a non-wild repo too!  Fixed.
2010-09-03 09:02:47 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 5188ec48ed fix a comment typo which totally changed the meaning! 2010-09-03 09:02:43 +05:30

Sitaram Chamarty c1bd3ca69c umpteenth doc revamp...
because someone else found the doc overwhelming.  However, the suggested
reading order (which so far existed only on the wiki) was probably a
good thing to have at the top of the README, and the disclaimers about
ssh may help keep my sanity a little longer ;-)
2010-08-27 16:54:38 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 1d566ac46b a bit of optimisation to help another one along
(thanks to reuss for telling me about the problem, although setting
BIG_CONFIG worked just as well in his case, and this patch was not
really needed)
2010-08-26 00:10:47 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 8808158bd8 (minor) test script was misnamed 2010-08-24 21:57:25 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 6b9e75dfcb allow @all to also include gitweb and daemon
By default, @all does not include gitweb and daemon, but if that's what
you want, you can make it happen...  see GL_ALL_INCLUDES_SPECIAL
variable in conf/example.gitolite.rc

2010-08-24 17:51:33 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty d6704d052a doc cleanup on info and expand command
jefferai pointed out that some of the links about this were broken, and
a quick look showed that it was described in multiple places too.
Brought it all together...
2010-08-21 17:02:12 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 6e2db12302 allow @groups in setperms command also
This should hopefully be the final step in making wildrepos as close to
normal repos as possible.  You can now do pretty much anything with them
that you can do with normal repos [1]

Implementation notes:

  - compile puts out %groups into the compiled config file regardless of
    GL_BIG_CONFIG because this feature needs it
  - wild_repo_rights caches %groups because the part of the %groups hash
    we care about will not change between calls in the same run

----

[1] **except** use the full-blown config file syntax within the gl-perms
    file :-)  I don't plan to do that; it's too complicated! [2]

[2] yeah yeah I know -- famous last words!

Sitaram Chamarty 34965b1b03 (tests) added tests for delegating with wildcards 2010-08-21 10:48:39 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 8faba23177 (minor) make time-style=long-iso explicit in t00
(side-effect of switching one machine from Mandriva to Fedora; nothing
to do with gitolite per se...)
2010-08-21 10:47:47 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 3a8f32ac9b minor fixups to the "gitweb/daemon from setperms" code...
- fork was not printing a newline after the permissions
  - "add_del_line" to properly handle that damn projects.list file!
2010-08-20 23:09:11 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 870983086c CHANGELOG and progit article updates 2010-08-20 21:03:48 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 648676faec gitweb and daemon should now work even from within setperms
modifications:

  - call setup_gitweb_access and setup_daemon_access from with
    get_set_perms so when the user sets a perm explicitly it works
  - in setup_gitweb_access, do not delete description file or
    gitweb.owner if the repo is wild
  - make the "fork" adc set gitweb.owner *and* call setperms using
    GL_WILDREPOS_DEFPERMS
  - add tests

bug fixes:

  - gl-auth did not even *look* at GL_WILDREPOS_DEFPERMS when
    auto-"C"reating a wild repo; fixed
  - setup_gitweb_access did not delete the description file as
    consistently as it deleted the owner

what will NOT work:

  - removing gitweb permissions does not clear the name from
    "projects.list".  That's complicated, so just wait till the next
    "compile" to make this happen

(thanks to Jefferai for driving this...)

----

mildly puzzling:

    for some strange reason, after a "git ls-remote ...try3" in t58,
    instead of not creating a "description" file, we started seeing a
    73-byte file containing this message:

    Unnamed repository; edit this file 'description' to name the repository.
