Summary:
DONT forget to run src/gl-compile-conf as the last step in the upgrade
Details:
The compiled file format has changed quite a bit, to make it easier for the
rebel edition coming up :-)
compile:
- we don't split RW/RW+ into individual perms anymore
- we store the info required for the first level check separately now:
(repo, R/W, user)
- the order for second level check is now:
repo, user, [{ref=>perms}...] (list of hashes)
update hook logic: the first refex that:
- matches the incoming ref, AND
- contains the perm you're trying to use,
causes the match loop to exit with success. Fallthrough is failure
- detect/warn git version < 1.6.2
- create documentation with details on client-side workaround
- change the "git init --bare" to (older) "git --bare init", since the old
syntax still works anyway
why should just usernames have all the fun :) The "expand_userlist" function
is now "expand_list" and serves generically. The example conf has also been
updated correspondingly
(thanks to SethX for feedback)
- install: a little more verbosity in the mkdir
- install and example conf: some of the help text made more clear
- auth: error message on bad $cmd is now clearer, plus no perl-warnings to
confuse people
- logs go into $GL_ADMINDIR/logs by default, named by year-month
- logfile name template (including dir prefix) now in $GL_LOGT
- two new env vars passed down: GL_TS and GL_LOG (timestamp, logfilename)
- log messages timestamps more compact, fields tab-delimited
- old and new SHAs cut to 14 characters
system("...") run from perl on sol does not seem to like "~" (regardless of
what $SHELL is set to), so use $ENV{HOME} instead
thanks again to evocallaghan
- install.sh is now install.pl (had to happen sooner or later!)
- now handles updates more gracefully, doesn't overwrite important stuff :)
- makes the install sequence much easier to understand
(just run it and follow the prompts!)
- made ~/.gitolite.rc much clearer to edit
- install is even clearer now (I hope!), esp to people with root
access who seem to expect something else :)
- used path vars (from ~/.gitolite.rc) more consistently, and
- added refeerences to ~/.gitolite.rc for resolving them
In the "create new repos" loop, we need an absolute value for REPO_BASE, in
order to be able to chdir back and forth. But (taking the "normal user with
no privileges" assumption too far!) we assumed REPO_BASE would be within
$HOME, and relative to it. So it fails when someone wants the repo_base
elsewhere.
Now we don't prefix $HOME if REPO_BASE is already absolute (begins with a "/")
bug reported by evocallaghan
I had to make two minor fixes while migrating my work repos:
1. I forgot to honor '@all'; oops!
While I was about it, I also fixed the "access denied"
message to show what rights were being tried when it
failed.
2. I forgot that URLs can have leading slashes (I myself
only use URLs like gs:reponame.git, where gs is an ssh
stanza that describes the git server in question).
