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 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.

Sitaram Chamarty da210f21bd log elapsed time
I'm an idiot.  I say I won't do it, then I go and do it anyway.

Fortunately, in this case, the code and execution remain exactly the
same for people who do not set $GL_PERFLOGT in the rc file, so it's
tolerable.

<evil grin> People who want even more than this can contact Greg Lonnon
(see the mailing list archives at
http://groups.google.com/group/gitolite for an obfuscated but easy to
guess email address) ;-)

Sitaram Chamarty f21e7780a1 fix up gitweb, daemon, for wild + big-config
Implementation notes:

  - %repo_config is now "our", not "my"
  - collect_repo_patts now uses repo_rights to get the name of the wild
    card repo (if any) that pertains to the physical $repo, instead of
    all that new code (duh!)
  - new "can_read(repo, user)" sub (to help daemon and gitweb use)
  - the "convenience copy on steroids" thing now copies %repo_config
    also, not just %repos.  This makes setup_repo_configs simpler
  - $creator gets substituted into %groups also; we need that now that
    we (%repos and %groups) are working closer together :)

Sitaram Chamarty 509c73b888 gitweb/daemon now work for wild repos also
(thanks to Kevin Fleming for the need/use case)

TODO: tests
TODO: proper documentation; meanwhile, just read this:

  - you can give gitweb and daemon read rights to wild card repos also,
    and it'll all just work -- when a new repo is 'C'reated, it'll pick
    up those rights etc

  - you can assign descriptions (and owners) to individual repos as
    before, except now you can assign them to repos that actually were
    created from wild card patterns.  So for example, you can define
    rules for

        repo foo/..*

    and then assign descriptions like

        foo/repo1 = "repo one"
        foo/repo2 = "repo two"
        foo/dil "scott" = "scott's dilbert repo"

    However, this only works for repos that already exist, and only when
    you push the admin repo.

    Thumb rule: have the user create his wild repo, *then* add and push
    the admin config file with the description.  Not the other way
    around.

implementation notes:

  - wildcard support for git config revamped, refactored...

    it's not just git config that needs wildcard support.  daemon and
    gitweb access also will be needing it soon, so we start by factoring
    out the part that finds the "pattern" given a "real" repo name.

  - GL_NO_DAEMON_NO_GITWEB now gates more than just those two things;
    see doc/big-config.mkd for details

  - we trawl through $GL_REPO_BASE_ABS *once* only, collecting repo
    names and tying them to either the same name or to a wild pattern
    that the repo name was created from

  - nice little subs to setup gitweb, daemon, and git config

  - god bless $GL_REPOPATT and the day I decided to set that env var
    whenever a user hits a wild repo in any way :-)

  - the code in gl-compile-conf is very simple now.  Much nicer than
    before

Sitaram Chamarty 0f5f82e4f5 log message changes (warning: minor backward compat breakage)
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)

Sitaram Chamarty 8da223f92a (big-config) allow usergroup information to be passed in from outside
[Please NOTE: this is all about *user* groups, not *repo* groups]

SUMMARY: gl-auth-commmand can now take an optional list of usergroup
names after the first argument (which is the username).

See doc/big-config.mkd in the next commit or so
2010-05-14 21:44:51 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty cf0e568c89 (big-config) the new "big-config" for large setups
If you have many thousands of repos and users, neatly organised into
groups, etc., the normal gitolite fails.  (It actually runs out of
memory very fast while doing the "compile" when you push the config, due
to the number of combinations of repo/user being stored in the hash!)

This commit series will stop doing that if you set $GL_BIG_CONFIG = 1 in
the rc file.

Some notes:

  - deny rules will still work but somewhat differently -- now they must
    be placed all together in one place to work like before.  Ask me for
    details if you need to know before I get done with the docs

  - I've tested most of the important features, but not every single
    nuance

  - the update hook may be a tad less efficient now; we can try and
    tweak it later if needed but it shouldn't really hurt anything
    significantly even now

  - docs have not been written yet

Ouch!  How mortifying :)  I'd always thought this was one of the Brit/US
differences, but to find out that it really *isn't* a word... hmph!

Anyway, in the interest of not breaking existing wild repos, the
ownership file is still called "gl-creater".  Everything else has been
changed.

Sitaram Chamarty 9d0a208b26 (adc) auth: git-init subcommand added
The "fork" adc cannot simply do a "git clone..."; hooks and gl-creater
won't get set up.  We need a way to initiate the *creation* of a repo
from a shell command, and then fetch the refs over.

For a long time, we used to trick gitolite into creating a repo for us
by simply using "git ls-remote host:reponame" ;-)  Now we have an actual
command, so we can say "ssh git@server git-init \'reponame\'"

Yes; those single quotes are required.  Deal with it.

Sitaram Chamarty 567e70ba40 (adc) admin-defined commands
This commit series allows an admin to designate a set of commands that
users can run.  For example, he can allow users to delete a repo that
they have created:

    ssh git@server rmrepo foo/me/bar

or fork (to use github's terminology) a repo they have "R" access to,
into a new one they have "C" access to:

    ssh git@server fork foo/someone-else/bar foo/me/bar

Please see documentation for details

Sitaram Chamarty 90e141cd61 (rrq) refactor all the rights querying
This commit series refactors all the rights querying logic.

  - old repo_rights sub renamed to wild_repo_rights
  - new repo_rights sub to be a single entry point for most rights
    queries
      - callable from gl-auth-command and expand_wild
      - callable from *outside* too, as long as $ENV{GL_USER} is set
  - the format of the returned permissions contains C, R, and W as
    applicable, with sigils reflecting the 3 possible ways in which you
    can get R or W perms (2 ways for C):
        @R  means @all users have the same access
        #R  means you're a "super user" (think root's shell prompt) so
            you can see all repos
         R  is the normal, explicit, access

Sitaram Chamarty 72b63abaf2 auth, gitolite.pm: do not leak info about repo existence
All this is about a user trying to look if a repo exists or not, when he
does not have any access to that repo.  Ideally, "repo does not exist"
should be indistinguishable from "you dont have perms to that repo".

(1) if $GL_WILDREPOS is not set, you either get a permissions error, or
    a "$repo not found in compiled config" death.  Fixed.

(2) if $GL_WILDREPOS is set, you either get either a permissions error,
    or a "$repo has no matches" death.  Fixed.

(3) The following combination leaks info about repo existence:

      - actual repo doesn't exist
      - spying user don't have C perms
      - repo patt doesn't contain CREATER
      - RW+ = CREATER is specified (as is normal)

    In such case, the "convenience copy" of the ACL that parse_acl
    makes, coupled with substituting CREATER for the invoking user means
    $repos{$actual_repo} has RW+ for the spying user.  This means the
    access denied doesn't happen, and control passes to git, which
    promptly expresses it unhappiness and angst over being given a repo
    that 'does not appear to be a git repository'

    This doesn't happen if all those conditions are not met:

      - if repo exists, CREATER is set to the real creater, so RW+ =
        CREATER does not gain spying user anything
      - if spying user has C perms it just gets created, because he has
        rights.  This is also info leak but we can't prevent it; tighten
        the config (maybe by including CREATER in repo pattern) if this
        is not wanted
      - if repo patt contains CREATER it will never match someone else's
        repo anyway!
2010-03-29 21:18:39 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty a45d2d9912 auth: do not implicitly assign RW access for creaters
a configuration like this:

    repo CREATER/.*
        C       =   CREATER
        RW+     =   WRITERS

was buggy; CREATER was implicitly part of WRITERS so he got RW
permissions implicitly, so the push went through
2010-03-27 22:55:58 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty 7bfb3676b7 @all for repos is now much cleaner; a true @all...
- no need to put it at the end of the config file now, yeaaay!
  - @all for @all is meaningless and not supported.  People asking will
    be told to get a life or use git-daemon.
  - NAME/ limits for @all repos is ignored for efficiency reasons.

Sitaram Chamarty 6dbaa0d325 auth: expand etc. *may* have single-quotes around reponame 2010-03-01 20:34:25 +05:30
Teemu Matilainen deda3da182 auth: do not anchor the pattern given for expand
Currently the pattern of expand command is line anchored.  This is
different than in e.g. grep, and causes extra work to add '.*' prefix
and/or suffix in many use cases.

The new semantics now mean you might get more matches than you would
have gotten earlier.  However, the expand command is still totally
undocumented, so I think it is acceptable to change the functionality.
;)

This patch removes the anchoring.  So for earlier behavior the specified
pattern needs be in form of '^<pattern>$'.  The default pattern is also
changed from '.*' to '^', so there might be even a small speed
improvement. =)

This is actually a pretty big deal, and I am seriously starting wonder

Anyway, in for a penny, in for a pound...

This patch implements a generic way to allow access control for external
commands, as long as they are invoked via ssh and present a server-side
command that contains enough information to make an access control
decision.

The first (and only, so far) such command implemented is rsync.
