OK I agree the starting line was *just* misleading enough to give the
opposite impression, but still, when the next para starts with "The
rules are..." wouldn't you expect people would read *that* too?
I got tired of being told "TL;DR". Now the online versions of most
documents fit on a page or two, or at least most of them do. The rest
has been split out (and you can see the links to the split out sections
right where the text is in the raw Markdown).
This is much more pleasant to read, and I've improved the linking so
it's much less effort for me to keep the links correct.
- strictly speaking, this should be phrased: "deny" rules for the
first level access check
- requires a gitolite option to be set, like so:
config gitolite-options.deny-repo = 1
major changes
- (src) one error message got more detail
- long overdue fixup to developer notes doc
plus many minor changes that have been piling up
PS: to dig into the "alliterative animal" comment, check the channel
logs around aug 23rd ;-)
- caution about wild repos needing to be manually created on the
receiving side (because nothing gets auto-created now)
- caution about the right and wrong way to "delete" a config variable
- a few other minor fixes
to my eternal shame (considering how proud I am of my documentation)
this was not mentioned anywhere! I'm getting old...
thanks to Pierre Habouzit for catching this
(also slipped in a few other minor doc changes. I wouldn't mix
unrelated stuff in a commit when doing code changes but it seems ok to
do this for docfixes, for some reason).
