(1) the backward compat breakage: you can't create empty-valued config
keys anymore. That is, you can't do the eqvt of the following shell
command using gitolite
git config foo.bar ""
(2) fixed a bug where this:
repo foo
config foo.bar =
when queried using
gitolite git-config -r foo .
would return even the empty valued ones, which -- remember! -- are
not supposed to exist anymore.
Fixing this bug allows situations like this to not show the admin
repo in gitweb:
repo [a-z].*
config gitweb.owner = P-h B
repo gitolite-admin
config gitweb.owner =
----
background...
Somewhere in g3 (well actually in 057506b), we lost the ability to
distinguish
config foo.bar = ""
from
config foo.bar =
I decided that conflating them is more intuitive for most people,
because a survey [1] revealed that no one seemed to want the equivalent
of the following shell command:
----
[1] ...of a (small prime greater than 1) number of people on #git
Using a g2-style "chained update hook" as a VREF doesn't *quite* work:
- all STDOUT from the hook is lost
- worse, all lines get parsed as a ref followed by a message, and if
the ref doesn't look like a ref it dies
So now we do all this only if the message starts with 'VREF/'. Any
other output is just printed out as is.
This patch adds instructions for configuring Gitolite and Apache 2.x
to make repositories available to both ssh and http clients.
[minor fixups by committer]
thanks to milki for all the efforts!
Details:
- partial-copy fell afoul of BSD not having $RANDOM
- test suite: fix bad GNU sort with good perl sort
- test suite: fix md5sum dependency (which BSD doesn't have or can't
easily have or requires extra options or whatever...), by doing it
in perl. (Requires Digest::MD5, which is probably available
anyway, but since this is only for the test suite, meh!)
- migration and non-core reachable from master-toc now
- migration flow changed. install.mkd, migration section, is [migr]
now, drives the whole thing now, links to g2migr
- more details on how to wipe out old gitolite
plus some minor fixes
(manually tested, no test script)
the whimsically named "D" command deletes repos, and is the opposite of
the "C" permission that enables the user to create one in the first
place. See the usage message for user info, and look in the comments of
the code itself for admin info.
- minor typo fixes, clarifications, etc.
- keep sts.html url consistent, because many people link to
http://sitaramc.github.com/gitolite/sts.html
- create a common migration doc, so the old 'migr.html' does not 404
when g3 docs become "main"
- progit doc done
- add gitosis convert script (FWIW)
- a minor comment fix to Sugar.pm
...now that triggers are not restricted to external programs and can be
perl code called by gitolite-shell (thus in the same PID), there's no
need to compute and pass along the times() array.
This also changes the arguments to POST_GIT; they're now the same as
PRE_GIT's.
- explicit 'list' gives way to mindmap, ...
- 'fm2mt.pl' to produce master-toc.mkd from the mindmap
- mkdoc no longer ignores master-toc.mkd, calls fm2mt.pl itself
and LOTS of changes to the actual docs
