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

# SECURITY SENSITIVE SETTINGS

# Settings below this point may have security implications. That

# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# --------------------------------------
# ALLOW REPO ADMIN TO SET GITCONFIG KEYS
#
# Gitolite allows you to set git repo options using the "config" keyword; see
# conf/example.conf for details and syntax.
#
# However, if you are in an installation where the repo admin does not (and
# should not) have shell access to the server, then allowing him to set
# arbitrary repo config options *may* be a security risk -- some config
# settings may allow executing arbitrary commands.
#
# You have 3 choices. By default $GL_GITCONFIG_KEYS is left empty, which
# completely disables this feature (meaning you cannot set git configs from
# the repo config).
$GL_GITCONFIG_KEYS = "";
#
# The second choice is to give it a space separated list of settings you
# consider safe. (These are actually treated as a set of regular expression
# patterns, and any one of them must match). For example:
# $GL_GITCONFIG_KEYS = "core\.logAllRefUpdates core\..*compression";
# allows repo admins to set one of those 3 config keys (yes, that second
# pattern matches two settings from "man git-config", if you look)
#
# The third choice (which you may have guessed already if you're familiar with
# regular expressions) is to allow anything and everything:
# $GL_GITCONFIG_KEYS = ".*";
# --------------------------------------
# EXTERNAL COMMAND HELPER -- HTPASSWD
# security note: runs an external command (htpasswd) with specific arguments,
# including a user-chosen "password".
# if you want to enable the "htpasswd" command, give this the absolute path to
# whatever file apache (etc) expect to find the passwords in.
$HTPASSWD_FILE = "";
# Look in doc/3 ("easier to link gitweb authorisation with gitolite" section)
# for more details on using this feature.
# --------------------------------------
# EXTERNAL COMMAND HELPER -- RSYNC
# security note: runs an external command (rsync) with specific arguments, all
# presumably filled in correctly by the client-side rsync.
# base path of all the files that are accessible via rsync. Must be an
# absolute path. Leave it undefined or set to the empty string to disable the
# rsync helper.
$RSYNC_BASE = "";
# $RSYNC_BASE = "/home/git/up-down";
# $RSYNC_BASE = "/tmp/up-down";
# --------------------------------------
# EXTERNAL COMMAND HELPER -- SVNSERVE
# security note: runs an external command (svnserve) with specific arguments,
# as specified below. %u is substituted with the username.
# This setting allows launching svnserve when requested by the ssh client.
# This allows using the same SSH setup (hostname/username/public key) for both
# SVN and git access. Leave it undefined or set to the empty string to disable
# svnserve access.
$SVNSERVE = "";
# $SVNSERVE = "/usr/bin/svnserve -r /var/svn/ -t --tunnel-user=%u";
# --------------------------------------
# ALLOW REPO CONFIG TO USE WILDCARDS
# security note: this used to in a separate "wildrepos" branch. You can
# create repositories based on wild cards, give "ownership" to the specific
# user who created it, allow him/her to hand out R and RW permissions to other
# users to collaborate, etc. This is powerful stuff, and I've made it as
# secure as I can, but it hasn't had the kind of rigorous line-by-line
# analysis that the old "master" branch had.
# This has now been rolled into master, with all the functionality gated by
# this variable. Set this to 1 if you want to enable the wildrepos features.
# Please see doc/4-wildcard-repositories.mkd for details.
$GL_WILDREPOS = 0;
# --------------------------------------
# ALLOW SETPERMS TO OVERRIDE gitolite.conf
# A user can be given permissions to use a "wildcard created" repo using the
# "setperms" command run by the creator. However, if that same user is also
# explicitly listed in the config file as having a specific permission, and if
# that permission is different from what was specified using `setperms`, there
# is a conflict.
# Default behaviour is to let the config file permissions override the
# "setperms" permissions, but if you want it the other way, set this to 1.
$GL_SETPERMS_OVERRIDES_CONFIG = 0;
# --------------------------------------
# HOOK CHAINING
# by default, the update hook in every repo chains to "update.secondary".
# Similarly, the post-update hook in the admin repo chains to
# "post-update.secondary". If you're fine with the defaults, there's no need
# to do anything here. However, if you want to use different names or paths,
# change these variables
# $UPDATE_CHAINS_TO = "hooks/update.secondary";
# $ADMIN_POST_UPDATE_CHAINS_TO = "hooks/post-update.secondary";
# --------------------------------------
# ADMIN DEFINED COMMANDS
# WARNING: Use this feature only if (a) you really really know what you're
# doing or (b) you really don't care too much about security. Please read
# doc/admin-defined-commands.mkd for details.
# $GL_ADC_PATH = "";
