- add better comments on the 2 main hashes
- work around an inefficiency caused by the exclude prep code needing
a list instead of a hash at a certain place
[Note: this is a fairly involved commit, compared to most of the others.
See doc/5-delegation.mkd for a user-level feature description.]
parse delegated config fragments (found as conf/fragments/*.conf). Any
repos being referenced within a fragment config *must* belong to the
"@group" with the same name as the fragment.
That is, a fragment called conf/fragments/abc.conf can only refer to repos
that are members of the "@abc" repo group. It cannot specify access
control for any other repos. If it does, those settings are ignored, and
a warning message is produced.
since the delegated config must have the flexibility of (re-)defining
group names for internal convenience, and since all such definitions go
into the same "groups" hash, it is quite easy for conf/fragments/abc.conf
to write in its own (re-)definition of "@abc"! That would be a neat
little security hole :)
The way to close it is to consider only members of the "@abc" groupset
defined in the main ("master") config file for this purpose.
collect the delegated config fragments from correspondingly named branches of
the gitolite-admin repo, and put them all in conf/fragments/
also deprecate changes to conf and keydir locations from now on
Again, prep for delegation, when we'll be reading fragments of config rules
from various files and tacking them onto the %repos hash.
note: this patch best viewed with "git diff -w", clicking "Ignore space
change" in gitk, or eqvt :-)
- warn about files in keydir/ that dont end with ".pub"
- warn about pubkey files for which the user is not mentioned in config
- warn more sternly about the opposite (user in config, no pubkey!)
update hook: add reponame to message on deny
auth: minor typo
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
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 "/")
