 About
 -----
 
 **Kallithea** is a fast and powerful management tool for Mercurial_ and Git_
 with a built-in push/pull server, full text search and code-review. It works on
 http/https and has a built in permission/authentication system with the ability
 to authenticate via LDAP or ActiveDirectory. Kallithea also provides simple API
 so it's easy to integrate with existing external systems.
 
 Kallithea is similar in some respects to GitHub_ or Bitbucket_, however
 Kallithea can be run as standalone hosted application on your own server. It is
 open-source donationware and focuses more on providing a customised,
 self-administered interface for Mercurial_ and Git_ repositories. Kallithea
 works on Unix-like systems and Windows, and is powered by the vcs_ library
 created by Łukasz Balcerzak and Marcin Kuźmiński to uniformly handle multiple
 version control systems.
 
 Kallithea was forked from RhodeCode in July 2014 and has been heavily modified.

 Installation
 ------------
 Kallithea requires Python_ 2.x and it is recommended to install it in a
 virtualenv_. Official releases of Kallithea can be installed with::
 
     pip install kallithea
 
 The development repository is kept very stable and used in production by the

 The issue tracker and a repository mirror can be found at Bitbucket_ on
 https://bitbucket.org/conservancy/kallithea.
 
 
 Kallithea features
 ------------------
 
 - Has its own middleware to handle Mercurial_ and Git_ protocol requests. Each
   request is authenticated and logged together with IP address.
 - Built for speed and performance. You can make multiple pulls/pushes
   simultaneously. Proven to work with thousands of repositories and users.
 - Supports http/https, LDAP, AD, proxy-pass authentication.
 - Full permissions (private/read/write/admin) together with IP restrictions for
   each repository, additional explicit forking, repositories group and
   repository creation permissions.
 - User groups for easier permission management.
 - Repository groups let you group repos and manage them easier. They come with
   permission delegation features, so you can delegate groups management.
 - Users can fork other users repos, and compare them at any time.
 - Built-in versioned paste functionality (Gist) for sharing code snippets.
 - Integrates easily with other systems, with custom created mappers you can
   connect it to almost any issue tracker, and with a JSON-RPC API you can make
   much more.
 - Built-in commit API lets you add, edit and commit files right from Kallithea
   web interface using simple editor or upload binary files using simple form.
 - Powerful pull request driven review system with inline commenting, changeset
   statuses, and notification system.
 - Importing and syncing repositories from remote locations for Git_, Mercurial_
   and Subversion.
 - Mako templates let you customize the look and feel of the application.
 - Beautiful diffs, annotations and source code browsing all colored by
   pygments. Raw diffs are made in Git-diff format for both VCS systems,
   including Git_ binary-patches.
 - Mercurial_ and Git_ DAG graphs and Flot-powered graphs with zooming and
   statistics to track activity for repositories.
 - Admin interface with user/permission management. Admin activity journal, logs
   pulls, pushes, forks, registrations and other actions made by all users.
 - Server side forks. It is possible to fork a project and modify it freely
   without breaking the main repository.
 - reST and Markdown README support for repositories.
 - Full text search powered by Whoosh on the source files, commit messages, and
   file names. Built-in indexing daemons, with optional incremental index build
   (no external search servers required all in one application).
 - Setup project descriptions/tags and info inside built in DB for easy,
   non-filesystem operations.
 - Intelligent cache with invalidation after push or project change, provides
   high performance and always up to date data.
 - RSS/Atom feeds, Gravatar support, downloadable sources as zip/tar/gz.
 - Optional async tasks for speed and performance using Celery_.
 - Backup scripts can do backup of whole app and send it over scp to desired
   location.
 - Based on Pylons, SQLAlchemy, SQLite, Whoosh, vcs.
 
 
 License
 -------
 
 **Kallithea** is released under the GPLv3 license. Kallithea is a `Software
 Freedom Conservancy`_ project and thus controlled by a non-profit organization.
 No commercial entity can take ownership of the project and change the
 direction.
 
 Kallithea started out as an effort to make sure the existing GPLv3 codebase
 would stay available under a legal license. Kallithea thus has to stay GPLv3
 compatible ... but we are also happy it is GPLv3 and happy to keep it that way.
 A different license (such as AGPL) could perhaps help attract a different
 community with a different mix of Free Software people and companies but we are
 happy with the current focus.

    .. note::
 
        Please try to read the documentation before posting any issues,
        especially the **troubleshooting section**
 
 
 Online documentation
 --------------------
 
 Online documentation for the current version of Kallithea is available at
 https://pythonhosted.org/Kallithea/. Documentation for the current development
 version can be found on https://docs.kallithea-scm.org/.
 
 You can also build the documentation locally: go to ``docs/`` and run::
 
    make html
 
 .. note:: You need to have Sphinx_ installed to build the
           documentation. If you don't have Sphinx_ installed you can
           install it via the command: ``pip install sphinx`` .
 
 
 Converting from RhodeCode
 -------------------------
 
 Currently, you have two options for working with an existing RhodeCode
 database:
 
 - keep the database unconverted (intended for testing and evaluation)
 - convert the database in a one-time step
 
 Maintaining interoperability
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 Interoperability with RhodeCode 2.2.X installations is provided so you don't
 have to immediately commit to switching to Kallithea. This option will most
 likely go away once the two projects have diverged significantly.
 
 To run Kallithea on a RhodeCode database, run::
 
    echo "BRAND = 'rhodecode'" > kallithea/brand.py
 
 This location will depend on where you installed Kallithea. If you installed
 via::
 
    python setup.py install
 
 then you will find this location at
 ``$VIRTUAL_ENV/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Kallithea-0.1-py2.7.egg/kallithea``.
 
 One-time conversion
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 Alternatively, if you would like to convert the database for good, you can use
 a helper script provided by Kallithea. This script will operate directly on the
 database, using the database string you can find in your ``production.ini`` (or
 ``development.ini``) file. For example, if using SQLite::
 
    cd /path/to/kallithea
    cp /path/to/rhodecode/rhodecode.db kallithea.db
    pip install sqlalchemy-migrate
    python kallithea/bin/rebranddb.py sqlite:///kallithea.db
 
 .. Note::
 
    If you started out using the branding interoperability approach mentioned
    above, watch out for stray brand.pyc after removing brand.py.

 way to call the JSON-RPC API.

 Getting started
 ---------------
 
 To get started with development::
 
         hg clone https://kallithea-scm.org/repos/kallithea
         cd kallithea
         virtualenv ../kallithea-venv
         source ../kallithea-venv/bin/activate

         paster serve my.ini --reload &
         firefox http://127.0.0.1:5000/
 
 You can also start out by forking https://bitbucket.org/conservancy/kallithea
 on Bitbucket_ and create a local clone of your own fork.
 
 
 Running tests
 -------------
 
 After finishing your changes make sure all tests pass cleanly. You can run
 the testsuite running ``nosetests`` from the project root, or if you use tox
-run ``tox`` for python2.6-2.7 with multiple database test.
+run ``tox`` for Python 2.6--2.7 with multiple database test.
 
 When running tests, Kallithea uses `kallithea/tests/test.ini` and populates the
 SQLite database specified there.
 
 It is possible to avoid recreating the full test database on each invocation of
 the tests, thus eliminating the initial delay. To achieve this, run the tests as::
 
     paster serve kallithea/tests/test.ini --pid-file=test.pid --daemon
     KALLITHEA_WHOOSH_TEST_DISABLE=1 KALLITHEA_NO_TMP_PATH=1 nosetests
     kill -9 $(cat test.pid)
 
 You can run individual tests by specifying their path as argument to nosetests.
 nosetests also has many more options, see `nosetests -h`. Some useful options
 are::
 
     -x, --stop            Stop running tests after the first error or failure
     -s, --nocapture       Don't capture stdout (any stdout output will be
                           printed immediately) [NOSE_NOCAPTURE]
     --failed              Run the tests that failed in the last test run.
 
 Coding/contribution guidelines
 ------------------------------
 
 Kallithea is GPLv3 and we assume all contributions are made by the
 committer/contributor and under GPLv3 unless explicitly stated. We do care a
 lot about preservation of copyright and license information for existing code
 that is brought into the project.
 
 We don't have a formal coding/formatting standard. We are currently using a mix
 of Mercurial (http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/CodingStyle), pep8, and
 consistency with existing code. Run whitespacecleanup.sh to avoid stupid
 whitespace noise in your patches.
 
 We support both Python 2.6.x and 2.7.x and nothing else. For now we don't care
 about Python 3 compatibility.
 
 We try to support the most common modern web browsers. IE9 is still supported
 to the extent it is feasible, IE8 is not.
 
 We primarily support Linux and OS X on the server side but Windows should also work.

 ==========================
 Installation on Unix/Linux
 ==========================
 
-Here are more details about 3 ways to install Kallithea:
+The following describes three different ways of installing Kallithea:
 
 - :ref:`installation-source`: The simplest way to keep the installation
-  uptodate and keep track of local customizations is to run directly from
-  source in a Kallithea repository clone and use virtualenv.
+  up-to-date and track any local customizations is to run directly from
+  source in a Kallithea repository clone, preferably inside a virtualenv
+  virtual Python environment.
 
 - :ref:`installation-virtualenv`: If you prefer to only use released versions
   of Kallithea, the recommended method is to install Kallithea in a virtual
   Python environment using `virtualenv`. The advantages of this method over
   direct installation is that Kallithea and its dependencies are completely
   contained inside the virtualenv (which also means you can have multiple
   installations side by side or remove it entirely by just removing the
   virtualenv directory) and does not require root privileges.
 
 - :ref:`installation-without-virtualenv`: The alternative method of installing
   a Kallithea release is using standard pip. The package will be installed in
   the same location as all other Python packages you have ever installed. As a
   result, removing it is not as straightforward as with a virtualenv, as you'd
   have to remove its dependencies manually and make sure that they are not
   needed by other packages.
 
 .. _installation-source:
 
 Installation from repository source
 -----------------------------------
 
-To install Kallithea in a virtualenv using the stable branch of the development
+To install Kallithea in a virtualenv_ using the stable branch of the development
 repository, follow the instructions below::
 
         hg clone https://kallithea-scm.org/repos/kallithea -u stable
         cd kallithea
         virtualenv ../kallithea-venv
         source ../kallithea-venv/bin/activate
         python setup.py develop
         python setup.py compile_catalog   # for translation of the UI
 
 You can now proceed to :ref:`setup`.
 
 To upgrade, simply update the repository with ``hg pull -u`` and restart the
 server.
 
 .. _installation-virtualenv:
 
 Installing a released version in a virtualenv
 ---------------------------------------------
 
 It is highly recommended to use a separate virtualenv_ for installing Kallithea.
 This way, all libraries required by Kallithea will be installed separately from your
 main Python installation and other applications and things will be less
 problematic when upgrading the system or Kallithea.
 An additional benefit of virtualenv_ is that it doesn't require root privileges.
 
 - Assuming you have installed virtualenv_, create a new virtual environment
   for example, in `/srv/kallithea/venv`, using the virtualenv command::
 
     virtualenv /srv/kallithea/venv
 
 - Activate the virtualenv_ in your current shell session by running::
 
     source /srv/kallithea/venv/bin/activate
 
 .. note:: You can't use UNIX ``sudo`` to source the ``virtualenv`` script; it
    will "activate" a shell that terminates immediately. It is also perfectly
    acceptable (and desirable) to create a virtualenv as a normal user.
 
 - Make a folder for Kallithea data files, and configuration somewhere on the
   filesystem. For example::
 
     mkdir /srv/kallithea
 
 - Go into the created directory and run this command to install Kallithea::
 
     pip install kallithea
 
   Alternatively, download a .tar.gz from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Kallithea,
   extract it and run::
 
     python setup.py install
 
 - This will install Kallithea together with pylons_ and all other required
   python libraries into the activated virtualenv.
 
 You can now proceed to :ref:`setup`.
 
 .. _installation-without-virtualenv:
 
 Installing a released version without virtualenv
 ------------------------------------------------
 
 For installation without virtualenv, 'just' use::
 
     pip install kallithea
 
 Note that this method requires root privileges and will install packages
 globally without using the system's package manager.
 
 To install as a regular user in ``~/.local``, you can use::
 
     pip install --user kallithea
 
 You can now proceed to :ref:`setup`.
 
 Upgrading Kallithea from Python Package Index (PyPI)
 ----------------------------------------------------
 
 .. note::
    It is strongly recommended that you **always** perform a database and
    configuration backup before doing an upgrade.
 
    These directions will use '{version}' to note that this is the version of
    Kallithea that these files were used with.  If backing up your Kallithea
    instance from version 0.1 to 0.2, the ``my.ini`` file could be
    backed up to ``my.ini.0-1``.
 
 
 If using a SQLite database, stop the Kallithea process/daemon/service, and
 then make a copy of the database file::
 
  service kallithea stop
  cp kallithea.db kallithea.db.{version}
 
 
 Back up your configuration file::
 
  cp my.ini my.ini.{version}
 
 
 Ensure that you are using the Python virtual environment that you originally
 installed Kallithea in by running::
 
  pip freeze
 
 This will list all packages installed in the current environment.  If
 Kallithea isn't listed, activate the correct virtual environment::
 
  source /srv/kallithea/venv/bin/activate
 
 
 Once you have verified the environment you can upgrade Kallithea with::
 
  pip install --upgrade kallithea
 
 
 Then run the following command from the installation directory::
 
  paster make-config Kallithea my.ini
 
 This will display any changes made by the new version of Kallithea to your
 current configuration. It will try to perform an automerge. It is recommended
 that you recheck the content after the automerge.
 
 .. note::
    Please always make sure your .ini files are up to date. Errors can
    often be caused by missing parameters added in new versions.
 
 
 It is also recommended that you rebuild the whoosh index after upgrading since
 the new whoosh version could introduce some incompatible index changes. Please
 read the changelog to see if there were any changes to whoosh.
 
 
 The final step is to upgrade the database. To do this simply run::
 
  paster upgrade-db my.ini
 
 This will upgrade the schema and update some of the defaults in the database,
 and will always recheck the settings of the application, if there are no new
 options that need to be set.
 
 
 .. note::
    The DB schema upgrade library has some limitations and can sometimes fail if you try to
    upgrade from older major releases. In such a case simply run upgrades sequentially, e.g.,
    upgrading from 0.1.X to 0.3.X should be done like this: 0.1.X. > 0.2.X > 0.3.X
    You can always specify what version of Kallithea you want to install for example in pip
    `pip install Kallithea==0.2`
 
 You may find it helpful to clear out your log file so that new errors are
 readily apparent::
 
  echo > kallithea.log
 
 Once that is complete, you may now start your upgraded Kallithea Instance::
 
  service kallithea start
 
 Or::
 
  paster serve /srv/kallithea/my.ini
 
 .. note::
    If you're using Celery, make sure you restart all instances of it after
    upgrade.

 =====================================================================
 Installing Kallithea on Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS)
 =====================================================================
 
 The following is documented using IIS 7/8 terminology. There should be nothing
 preventing you from applying this on IIS 6 well.
 
 .. note::
 
     For the best security, it is strongly recommended to only host the site over
     a secure connection, e.g. using TLS.
 
 Prerequisites
 -------------
 
 Apart from the normal requirements for Kallithea, it is also necessary to get an
 ISAPI-WSGI bridge module, e.g. isapi-wsgi.
 
 Installation
 ------------
 
-The following will assume that your Kallithea is at ``c:\inetpub\kallithea`` and
+The following assumes that your Kallithea is at ``c:\inetpub\kallithea``, and
 will be served from the root of its own website. The changes to serve it in its
 own virtual folder will be noted where appropriate.
 
 Application pool
 ................
 
 Make sure that there is a unique application pool for the Kallithea application
 with an identity that has read access to the Kallithea distribution.
 
 The application pool does not need to be able to run any managed code. If you
-are using a 32-bit Python installation, then you must enable 32 bit program in
-the advanced settings for the application pool otherwise Python will not be able
-to run on the website and consequently, Kallithea will not be able to run.
+are using a 32-bit Python installation, then you must enable 32-bit program in
+the advanced settings for the application pool; otherwise Python will not be able
+to run on the website and neither will Kallithea.
 
 .. note::
 
-    The application pool can be the same as an existing application pool as long
-    as the requirements to Kallithea are enabled by the existing application
-    pool.
+    The application pool can be the same as an existing application pool,
+    as long as the Kallithea requirements are met by the existing pool.
+
 
 ISAPI handler
 .............
 
 The ISAPI handler can be generated using::
 
     paster install-iis my.ini --root=/
 
 This will generate a ``dispatch.py`` file in the current directory that contains
 the necessary components to finalize an installation into IIS. Once this file
 has been generated, it is necessary to run the following command due to the way
 that ISAPI-WSGI is made::
 
     python dispatch.py install
 
 This accomplishes two things: generating an ISAPI compliant DLL file,
 ``_dispatch.dll``, and installing a script map handler into IIS for the
 ``--root`` specified above pointing to ``_dispatch.dll``.
 
 The ISAPI handler is registered to all file extensions, so it will automatically
 be the one handling all requests to the specified root. When the website starts
 the ISAPI handler, it will start a thread pool managed wrapper around the paster
 middleware WSGI handler that Kallithea runs within and each HTTP request to the
 site will be processed through this logic henceforth.
 
 Authentication with Kallithea using IIS authentication modules
 ..............................................................
 
 The recommended way to handle authentication with Kallithea using IIS is to let
 IIS handle all the authentication and just pass it to Kallithea.
 
 To move responsibility into IIS from Kallithea, we need to configure Kallithea
 to let external systems handle authentication and then let Kallithea create the
 user automatically. To do this, access the administration's authentication page
 and enable the ``kallithea.lib.auth_modules.auth_container`` plugin. Once it is
 added, enable it with the ``REMOTE_USER`` header and check *Clean username*.
 Finally, save the changes on this page.
 
 Switch to the administration's permissions page and disable anonymous access,
 otherwise Kallithea will not attempt to use the authenticated user name. By
 default, Kallithea will populate the list of users lazily as they log in. Either
 disable external auth account activation and ensure that you pre-populate the
 user database with an external tool, or set it to *Automatic activation of
 external account*. Finally, save the changes.
 
 The last necessary step is to enable the relevant authentication in IIS, e.g.
 Windows authentication.
 
 Troubleshooting
 ---------------
 
 Typically, any issues in this setup will either be entirely in IIS or entirely
 in Kallithea (or Kallithea's WSGI/paster middleware). Consequently, two
 different options for finding issues exist: IIS' failed request tracking which
 is great at finding issues until they exist inside Kallithea, at which point the
 ISAPI-WSGI wrapper above uses ``win32traceutil``, which is part of ``pywin32``.
 
 In order to dump output from WSGI using ``win32traceutil`` it is sufficient to
 type the following in a console window::
 
     python -m win32traceutil
 
 and any exceptions occurring in the WSGI layer and below (i.e. in the Kallithea
 application itself) that are uncaught, will be printed here complete with stack
 traces, making it a lot easier to identify issues.

 if you closed it reopen it following the same commands (including the
 "activate" one). When ready, just type::
 
   cd C:\Kallithea\Bin
   paster make-config Kallithea production.ini
 
 Then, you must edit production.ini to fit your needs (network address and
 port, mail settings, database, whatever). I recommend using NotePad++
 (free) or similar text editor, as it handles well the EndOfLine
 character differences between Unix and Windows

 your edits (if any), in the previous Command Prompt, type::
 
  paster setup-db production.ini
 
 (this time a NEW database will be installed, you must follow a different
 step to later UPGRADE to a newer Kallithea version)
 
 The script will ask you for confirmation about creating a NEW database,
 answer yes (y)
 The script will ask you for repository path, answer C:\\Kallithea\\Repos
 (or similar)
 The script will ask you for admin username and password, answer "admin"
 + "123456" (or whatever you want)
 The script will ask you for admin mail, answer "[e-mail]" (or
 whatever you want)
 
 If you make some mistake and the script does not end, don't worry, start
 it again.

 Setup
 =====
 
 
 Setting up Kallithea
 --------------------
 
 First, you will need to create a Kallithea configuration file. Run the
 following command to do so::
 
     paster make-config Kallithea my.ini
 
 This will create the file ``my.ini`` in the current directory. This
-configuration file contains the various settings for Kallithea, e.g.,
+configuration file contains the various settings for Kallithea, e.g.
 proxy port, email settings, usage of static files, cache, Celery
 settings, and logging.
 
 
 Next, you need to create the databases used by Kallithea. It is recommended to
 use PostgreSQL or SQLite (default). If you choose a database other than the
 default, ensure you properly adjust the database URL in your ``my.ini``
 configuration file to use this other database. Kallithea currently supports
 PostgreSQL, SQLite and MySQL databases. Create the database by running
 the following command::
 
     paster setup-db my.ini
 
 This will prompt you for a "root" path. This "root" path is the location where
 Kallithea will store all of its repositories on the current machine. After
 entering this "root" path ``setup-db`` will also prompt you for a username
 and password for the initial admin account which ``setup-db`` sets
 up for you.
 
-The setup process can be fully automated, example for lazy::
+The ``setup-db`` values can also be given on the command line.
+Example::
 
-    paster setup-db my.ini --user=nn --password=secret --email=[e-mail] --repos=/srv/repos
+    paster setup-db my.ini --user=nn --password=secret --email=[e-mail] --repos=/srv/repos
 
 
-The ``setup-db`` command will create all of the needed tables and an
+The ``setup-db`` command will create all needed tables and an
 admin account. When choosing a root path you can either use a new
 empty location, or a location which already contains existing
 repositories. If you choose a location which contains existing
 repositories Kallithea will add all of the repositories at the chosen
 location to its database.  (Note: make sure you specify the correct
 path to the root).
 
 .. note:: the given path for Mercurial_ repositories **must** be write
           accessible for the application. It's very important since
           the Kallithea web interface will work without write access,
           but when trying to do a push it will fail with permission
           denied errors unless it has write access.
 
 You are now ready to use Kallithea. To run it simply execute::
 
     paster serve my.ini
 
 - This command runs the Kallithea server. The web app should be available at
-  http://127.0.0.1:5000. This ip and port is configurable via the my.ini
-  file created in previous step
-- Use the admin account you created above when running ``setup-db``
-  to login to the web app.

+- Log in to Kallithea using the admin account created when running ``setup-db``.

   Remember to update these if needed.
 - In the admin panel you can toggle LDAP, anonymous, and permissions
   settings, as well as edit more advanced options on users and

-functionality. To do this simply execute::
+Optionally one can create an ``rcextensions`` package that extends Kallithea

+To generate a skeleton extensions package, run::
 
     paster make-rcext my.ini
 
 This will create an ``rcextensions`` package next to the specified ``ini`` file.
 With ``rcextensions`` it's possible to add additional mapping for whoosh,
 stats and add additional code into the push/pull/create/delete repo hooks,
 for example for sending signals to build-bots such as Jenkins.
 
 See the ``__init__.py`` file inside the generated ``rcextensions`` package
 for more details.
 
 
 Using Kallithea with SSH
 ------------------------
 
 Kallithea currently only hosts repositories using http and https. (The addition
 of ssh hosting is a planned future feature.) However you can easily use ssh in
 parallel with Kallithea. (Repository access via ssh is a standard "out of
 the box" feature of Mercurial_ and you can use this to access any of the
 repositories that Kallithea is hosting. See PublishingRepositories_)
 
 Kallithea repository structures are kept in directories with the same name
 as the project. When using repository groups, each group is a subdirectory.
 This allows you to easily use ssh for accessing repositories.
 
 In order to use ssh you need to make sure that your web server and the users'
 login accounts have the correct permissions set on the appropriate directories.
 
 .. note:: These permissions are independent of any permissions you
           have set up using the Kallithea web interface.
 
 If your main directory (the same as set in Kallithea settings) is for
 example set to ``/srv/repos`` and the repository you are using is
 named ``kallithea``, then to clone via ssh you should run::
 
     hg clone ssh://[e-mail]//srv/repos/kallithea
 
 Using other external tools such as mercurial-server_ or using ssh key-based
 authentication is fully supported.
 
 .. note:: In an advanced setup, in order for your ssh access to use
           the same permissions as set up via the Kallithea web
           interface, you can create an authentication hook to connect
           to the Kallithea db and run check functions for permissions
           against that.
 
 Setting up Whoosh full text search
 ----------------------------------
 
-The whoosh index can be built by using the paster
-command ``make-index``. To use ``make-index`` you must specify the configuration
-file that stores the location of the index. You may specify the location of the
-repositories (``--repo-location``).  If not specified, this value is retrieved
-from the Kallithea database.
-It is also possible to specify a comma separated list of
-repositories (``--index-only``) to build index only on chooses repositories
-skipping any other found in repos location
+Kallithea provides full text search of repositories using `Whoosh`__.
 
-You may optionally pass the option ``-f`` to enable a full index rebuild. Without
-the ``-f`` option, indexing will run always in "incremental" mode.
+.. __: https://pythonhosted.org/Whoosh/
 
-For an incremental index build use::
+For an incremental index build, run::
 
     paster make-index my.ini
 
-For a full index rebuild use::
+For a full index rebuild, run::
 
     paster make-index my.ini -f
 
+The ``--repo-location`` option allows the location of the repositories to be overriden;
+usually, the location is retrieved from the Kallithea database.
 
-Building an index for just selected repositories is possible with such command::
+The ``--index-only`` option can be used to limit the indexed repositories to a comma-separated list::
 
     paster make-index my.ini --index-only=vcs,kallithea
 
 
-In order to do periodic index builds and keep your index always up to
-date, it is recommended to use a crontab entry.  An example entry
-might look like this::
+To keep your index up-to-date it is necessary to do periodic index builds;
+for this, it is recommended to use a crontab entry. Example::
 
-    /path/to/python/bin/paster make-index /path/to/kallithea/my.ini
+    0  3  *  *  *  /path/to/virtualenv/bin/paster make-index /path/to/kallithea/my.ini
 
-When using incremental mode (the default) whoosh will check the last
+When using incremental mode (the default), Whoosh will check the last
 modification date of each file and add it to be reindexed if a newer file is
 available. The indexing daemon checks for any removed files and removes them
 from index.
 
 If you want to rebuild the index from scratch, you can use the ``-f`` flag as above,
-or in the admin panel you can check the "build from scratch" flag.
+or in the admin panel you can check the "build from scratch" checkbox.
 
 
 Setting up LDAP support
 -----------------------
 
 Kallithea supports LDAP authentication. In order
 to use LDAP, you have to install the python-ldap_ package. This package is
-available via pypi, so you can install it by running::
+available via PyPI, so you can install it by running::
 
     pip install python-ldap
 
 .. note:: ``python-ldap`` requires some libraries to be installed on
           your system, so before installing it check that you have at
           least the ``openldap`` and ``sasl`` libraries.
 
 LDAP settings are located in the Admin->LDAP section.
 
 Here's a typical LDAP setup::
 
  Connection settings
  Enable LDAP          = checked
  Host                 = host.example.org
  Port                 = 389
  Account              = <account>
  Password             = <password>
  Connection Security  = LDAPS connection
  Certificate Checks   = DEMAND
 
  Search settings
  Base DN              = CN=users,DC=host,DC=example,DC=org
  LDAP Filter          = (&(objectClass=user)(!(objectClass=computer)))
  LDAP Search Scope    = SUBTREE
 
  Attribute mappings
  Login Attribute      = uid
  First Name Attribute = firstName
  Last Name Attribute  = lastName
  Email Attribute      = mail
 
 If your user groups are placed in an Organisation Unit (OU) structure, the Search Settings configuration differs::
 
  Search settings
  Base DN              = DC=host,DC=example,DC=org
  LDAP Filter          = (&(memberOf=CN=your user group,OU=subunit,OU=unit,DC=host,DC=example,DC=org)(objectClass=user))
  LDAP Search Scope    = SUBTREE
 
 .. _enable_ldap:
 
 Enable LDAP : required
     Whether to use LDAP for authenticating users.
 
 .. _ldap_host:
 
 Host : required
     LDAP server hostname or IP address. Can be also a comma separated
     list of servers to support LDAP fail-over.
 
 .. _Port:
 
 Port : required
     389 for un-encrypted LDAP, 636 for SSL-encrypted LDAP.
 
 .. _ldap_account:
 
 Account : optional
     Only required if the LDAP server does not allow anonymous browsing of
     records.  This should be a special account for record browsing.  This
     will require `LDAP Password`_ below.
 
 .. _LDAP Password:
 
 Password : optional
     Only required if the LDAP server does not allow anonymous browsing of
     records.
 
 .. _Enable LDAPS:
 
 Connection Security : required
     Defines the connection to LDAP server
 
     No encryption
         Plain non encrypted connection
 
     LDAPS connection
         Enable LDAPS connections. It will likely require `Port`_ to be set to
         a different value (standard LDAPS port is 636). When LDAPS is enabled
         then `Certificate Checks`_ is required.
 
     START_TLS on LDAP connection
         START TLS connection
 
 .. _Certificate Checks:
 
 Certificate Checks : optional
     How SSL certificates verification is handled - this is only useful when
     `Enable LDAPS`_ is enabled.  Only DEMAND or HARD offer full SSL security
     while the other options are susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks.  SSL
     certificates can be installed to /etc/openldap/cacerts so that the
     DEMAND or HARD options can be used with self-signed certificates or
     certificates that do not have traceable certificates of authority.
 
     NEVER
         A serve certificate will never be requested or checked.
 
     ALLOW
         A server certificate is requested.  Failure to provide a
         certificate or providing a bad certificate will not terminate the
         session.
 
     TRY
         A server certificate is requested.  Failure to provide a
         certificate does not halt the session; providing a bad certificate
         halts the session.
 
     DEMAND
         A server certificate is requested and must be provided and
         authenticated for the session to proceed.
 
     HARD
         The same as DEMAND.
 
 .. _Base DN:
 
 Base DN : required
     The Distinguished Name (DN) where searches for users will be performed.
     Searches can be controlled by `LDAP Filter`_ and `LDAP Search Scope`_.
 
 .. _LDAP Filter:
 
 LDAP Filter : optional
     A LDAP filter defined by RFC 2254.  This is more useful when `LDAP
     Search Scope`_ is set to SUBTREE.  The filter is useful for limiting
     which LDAP objects are identified as representing Users for
     authentication.  The filter is augmented by `Login Attribute`_ below.
     This can commonly be left blank.
 
 .. _LDAP Search Scope:
 
 LDAP Search Scope : required
     This limits how far LDAP will search for a matching object.
 
     BASE
         Only allows searching of `Base DN`_ and is usually not what you
         want.
 
     ONELEVEL
         Searches all entries under `Base DN`_, but not Base DN itself.
 
     SUBTREE
         Searches all entries below `Base DN`_, but not Base DN itself.
         When using SUBTREE `LDAP Filter`_ is useful to limit object
         location.
 
 .. _Login Attribute:
 
 Login Attribute : required
     The LDAP record attribute that will be matched as the USERNAME or
     ACCOUNT used to connect to Kallithea.  This will be added to `LDAP
     Filter`_ for locating the User object.  If `LDAP Filter`_ is specified as
     "LDAPFILTER", `Login Attribute`_ is specified as "uid" and the user has
     connected as "jsmith" then the `LDAP Filter`_ will be augmented as below
     ::
 
         (&(LDAPFILTER)(uid=jsmith))
 
 .. _ldap_attr_firstname:
 
 First Name Attribute : required
     The LDAP record attribute which represents the user's first name.
 
 .. _ldap_attr_lastname:
 
 Last Name Attribute : required
     The LDAP record attribute which represents the user's last name.
 
 .. _ldap_attr_email:
 
 Email Attribute : required
     The LDAP record attribute which represents the user's email address.
 
 If all data are entered correctly, and python-ldap_ is properly installed
 users should be granted access to Kallithea with LDAP accounts.  At this
 time user information is copied from LDAP into the Kallithea user database.
 This means that updates of an LDAP user object may not be reflected as a
 user update in Kallithea.
 
 If You have problems with LDAP access and believe You entered correct
 information check out the Kallithea logs, any error messages sent from LDAP
 will be saved there.
 
 Active Directory
 ''''''''''''''''
 
 Kallithea can use Microsoft Active Directory for user authentication.  This
 is done through an LDAP or LDAPS connection to Active Directory.  The
 following LDAP configuration settings are typical for using Active
 Directory ::
 
  Base DN              = OU=SBSUsers,OU=Users,OU=MyBusiness,DC=v3sys,DC=local
  Login Attribute      = sAMAccountName
  First Name Attribute = givenName
  Last Name Attribute  = sn
  Email Attribute     = mail
 
 All other LDAP settings will likely be site-specific and should be
 appropriately configured.
 
 
 Authentication by container or reverse-proxy
 --------------------------------------------
 
 Kallithea supports delegating the authentication
 of users to its WSGI container, or to a reverse-proxy server through which all
 clients access the application.
 
 When these authentication methods are enabled in Kallithea, it uses the
-username that the container/proxy (Apache/Nginx/etc) authenticated and doesn't
+username that the container/proxy (Apache or Nginx, etc.) provides and doesn't
 perform the authentication itself. The authorization, however, is still done by
 Kallithea according to its settings.
 
 When a user logs in for the first time using these authentication methods,
 a matching user account is created in Kallithea with default permissions. An
 administrator can then modify it using Kallithea's admin interface.
+
 It's also possible for an administrator to create accounts and configure their
-permissions before the user logs in for the first time.
+permissions before the user logs in for the first time, using the :ref:`create-user` API.
 
 
 Container-based authentication
 ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
 
 In a container-based authentication setup, Kallithea reads the user name from
 the ``REMOTE_USER`` server variable provided by the WSGI container.
 
-After setting up your container (see `Apache's WSGI config`_), you'd need
+After setting up your container (see `Apache with mod_wsgi`_), you'll need
 to configure it to require authentication on the location configured for
 Kallithea.
 
 
 Proxy pass-through authentication
 '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
 
 In a proxy pass-through authentication setup, Kallithea reads the user name
 from the ``X-Forwarded-User`` request header, which should be configured to be
 sent by the reverse-proxy server.
 
 After setting up your proxy solution (see `Apache virtual host reverse proxy example`_,
-`Apache as subdirectory`_ or `Nginx virtual host example`_), you'd need to
+`Apache as subdirectory`_ or `Nginx virtual host example`_), you'll need to
 configure the authentication and add the username in a request header named
 ``X-Forwarded-User``.
 
 For example, the following config section for Apache sets a subdirectory in a
-reverse-proxy setup with basic auth::
+reverse-proxy setup with basic auth:
+
+.. code-block:: apache
 
-    <Location /<someprefix> >
-      ProxyPass http://127.0.0.1:5000/<someprefix>
-      ProxyPassReverse http://127.0.0.1:5000/<someprefix>
+    <Location /someprefix>
+      ProxyPass http://127.0.0.1:5000/someprefix
+      ProxyPassReverse http://127.0.0.1:5000/someprefix
       SetEnvIf X-Url-Scheme https HTTPS=1
 
       AuthType Basic
       AuthName "Kallithea authentication"
       AuthUserFile /srv/kallithea/.htpasswd
-      require valid-user
+      Require valid-user
 
       RequestHeader unset X-Forwarded-User
 
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteCond %{LA-U:REMOTE_USER} (.+)
       RewriteRule .* - [E=RU:%1]
       RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-User %{RU}e
     </Location>
 
 
 .. note::
    If you enable proxy pass-through authentication, make sure your server is
    only accessible through the proxy. Otherwise, any client would be able to
    forge the authentication header and could effectively become authenticated
    using any account of their liking.
 
 
 Integration with issue trackers
 -------------------------------
 
 Kallithea provides a simple integration with issue trackers. It's possible
-to define a regular expression that will fetch an issue id stored in a commit
-messages and replace that with a URL to the issue. To enable this simply
+to define a regular expression that will match an issue ID in commit messages,
+and have that replaced with a URL to the issue. To enable this simply
 uncomment the following variables in the ini file::
 
     issue_pat = (?:^#|\s#)(\w+)
     issue_server_link = https://myissueserver.com/{repo}/issue/{id}
     issue_prefix = #
 
 ``issue_pat`` is the regular expression describing which strings in
 commit messages will be treated as issue references. A match group in
 parentheses should be used to specify the actual issue id.
 
 The default expression matches issues in the format ``#<number>``, e.g., ``#300``.
 
-Matched issues are replaced with the link specified as
-``issue_server_link`` ``{id}`` is replaced with issue id, and
+Matched issue references are replaced with the link specified in
+``issue_server_link``. ``{id}`` is replaced with the issue ID, and
 ``{repo}`` with the repository name.  Since the # is stripped away,
 ``issue_prefix`` is prepended to the link text.  ``issue_prefix`` doesn't
 necessarily need to be ``#``: if you set issue prefix to ``ISSUE-`` this will
-generate a URL in the format::
+generate a URL in the format:
+
+.. code-block:: html
 
   <a href="https://myissueserver.com/example_repo/issue/300">ISSUE-300</a>
 
 If needed, more than one pattern can be specified by appending a unique suffix to
 the variables. For example::
 
     issue_pat_wiki = (?:wiki-)(.+)
     issue_server_link_wiki = https://mywiki.com/{id}
     issue_prefix_wiki = WIKI-
 
 With these settings, wiki pages can be referenced as wiki-some-id, and every
-such reference will be transformed into::
+such reference will be transformed into:
+
+.. code-block:: html
 
   <a href="https://mywiki.com/some-id">WIKI-some-id</a>
 
 
 Hook management
 ---------------
 
 Hooks can be managed in similar way to that used in ``.hgrc`` files.
 To access hooks setting click `advanced setup` in the `Hooks` section
 of Mercurial Settings in Admin.
 
-There are four built in hooks that cannot be changed (only enabled/disabled by
-checkboxes in the previous section).
-To add another custom hook simply fill in the first section with
-``<name>.<hook_type>`` and the second one with hook path. Example hooks
+The built-in hooks cannot be modified, though they can be enabled or disabled in the *VCS* section.
+
+To add another custom hook simply fill in the first textbox with
+``<name>.<hook_type>`` and the second with the hook path. Example hooks
 can be found in ``kallithea.lib.hooks``.
 
 
 Changing default encoding
 -------------------------
 
 By default, Kallithea uses UTF-8 encoding.
 This is configurable as ``default_encoding`` in the .ini file.
 This affects many parts in Kallithea including user names, filenames, and
 encoding of commit messages. In addition Kallithea can detect if the ``chardet``
 library is installed. If ``chardet`` is detected Kallithea will fallback to it
 when there are encode/decode errors.
 
 
 Celery configuration
 --------------------
 
 Kallithea can use the distributed task queue system Celery_ to run tasks like
 cloning repositories or sending emails.
 
 Kallithea will in most setups work perfectly fine out of the box (without
 Celery), executing all tasks in the web server process. Some tasks can however
 take some time to run and it can be better to run such tasks asynchronously in
 a separate process so the web server can focus on serving web requests.
 
 For installation and configuration of Celery, see the `Celery documentation`_.
 Note that Celery requires a message broker service like RabbitMQ_ (recommended)
 or Redis_.
 
 The use of Celery is configured in the Kallithea ini configuration file.
 To enable it, simply set::
 
   use_celery = true
 
 and add or change the ``celery.*`` and ``broker.*`` configuration variables.
 
 Remember that the ini files use the format with '.' and not with '_' like
 Celery. So for example setting `BROKER_HOST` in Celery means setting
 `broker.host` in the configuration file.
 
 To start the Celery process, run::
 
  paster celeryd <configfile.ini>
 
 
 .. note::
    Make sure you run this command from the same virtualenv, and with the same
    user that Kallithea runs.
 
+
 HTTPS support
 -------------
 
 Kallithea will by default generate URLs based on the WSGI environment.
 
 Alternatively, you can use some special configuration settings to control
 directly which scheme/protocol Kallithea will use when generating URLs:
 
-- With ``https_fixup = true``, the scheme will be taken from the ``HTTP_X_URL_SCHEME``,
-  ``HTTP_X_FORWARDED_SCHEME`` or ``HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO HTTP`` header (default ``http``).
+- With ``https_fixup = true``, the scheme will be taken from the
+  ``X-Url-Scheme``, ``X-Forwarded-Scheme`` or ``X-Forwarded-Proto`` HTTP header
+  (default ``http``).
 - With ``force_https = true`` the default will be ``https``.
-- With ``use_htsts = true``, it will set ``Strict-Transport-Security`` when using https.
+- With ``use_htsts = true``, Kallithea will set ``Strict-Transport-Security`` when using https.

-Apache's WSGI config
+Apache with mod_wsgi
 --------------------
 
 Alternatively, Kallithea can be set up with Apache under mod_wsgi. For
 that, you'll need to:
 
 - Install mod_wsgi. If using a Debian-based distro, you can install
   the package libapache2-mod-wsgi::
 
     aptitude install libapache2-mod-wsgi
 
 - Enable mod_wsgi::
 
     a2enmod wsgi
 
 - Create a wsgi dispatch script, like the one below. Make sure you
   check that the paths correctly point to where you installed Kallithea
   and its Python Virtual Environment.
 - Enable the ``WSGIScriptAlias`` directive for the WSGI dispatch script,
   as in the following example. Once again, check the paths are
   correctly specified.

 =======================
 General Kallithea usage
 =======================
 
 
-Repository deleting
+Repository deletion
 -------------------
 
 Currently when an admin or owner deletes a repository, Kallithea does
 not physically delete said repository from the filesystem, but instead
 renames it in a special way so that it is not possible to push, clone
 or access the repository.
 
-There is a special command for cleaning up such archived repos::
+There is a special command for cleaning up such archived repositories::
 
     paster cleanup-repos --older-than=30d my.ini
 
 This command scans for archived repositories that are older than
 30 days, displays them, and asks if you want to delete them (unless given
 the ``--dont-ask`` flag). If you host a large amount of repositories with
 forks that are constantly being deleted, it is recommended that you run this
 command via crontab.
 
 It is worth noting that even if someone is given administrative access to
 Kallithea and deletes a repository, you can easily restore such an action by
 renaming the repository directory, removing the ``rm__<date>`` prefix.
 
 File view: follow current branch
 --------------------------------
 
 In the file view, left and right arrows allow to jump to the previous and next
 revision. Depending on the way revisions were created in the repository, this
 could jump to a different branch.  When the checkbox ``Follow current branch``
 is checked, these arrows will only jump to revisions on the same branch as the
 currently visible revision.  So for example, if someone is viewing files in the
 ``beta`` branch and marks the `Follow current branch` checkbox, the < and >
 arrows will only show revisions on the ``beta`` branch.
 
 
 Changelog features
 ------------------
 
 The core feature of a repository's ``changelog`` page is to show the revisions
 in a repository. However, there are several other features available from the
 changelog.
 
 Branch filter
   By default, the changelog shows revisions from all branches in the
   repository. Use the branch filter to restrict to a given branch.
 
 Viewing a changeset
   A particular changeset can be opened by clicking on either the changeset
   hash or the commit message, or by ticking the checkbox and clicking the
   ``Show selected changeset`` button at the top.
 
 Viewing all changes between two changesets
   To get a list of all changesets between two selected changesets, along with
   the changes in each one of them, tick the checkboxes of the first and
   last changeset in the desired range and click the ``Show selected changesets``
   button at the top. You can only show the range between the first and last
   checkbox (no cherry-picking).
 
   From that page, you can proceed to viewing the overall delta between the
   selected changesets, by clicking the ``Compare revisions`` button.
 
 Creating a pull request
   You can create a new pull request for the changes of a particular changeset
   (and its ancestors) by selecting it and clicking the ``Open new pull request
   for selected changesets`` button.
 
+
 Permanent repository URLs
 -------------------------
 
 Due to the complicated nature of repository grouping, URLs of repositories
 can often change. For example, a repository originally accessible from::
 
-  http://server.com/repo_name
+  http://example.com/repo_name
 
 would get a new URL after moving it to test_group::
 
-  http://server.com/test_group/repo_name
+  http://example.com/test_group/repo_name
 
 Such moving of a repository to a group can be an issue for build systems and
 other scripts where the repository paths are hardcoded. To mitigate this,
 Kallithea provides permanent URLs using the repository ID prefixed with an
 underscore. In all Kallithea URLs, for example those for the changelog and the
 file view, a repository name can be replaced by this ``_ID`` string. Since IDs
 are always the same, moving the repository to a different group will not affect
 such URLs.
 
 In the example, the repository could also be accessible as::
 
-  http://server.com/_<ID>
+  http://example.com/_<ID>
 
 The ID of a given repository can be shown from the repository ``Summary`` page,
 by selecting the ``Show by ID`` button next to ``Clone URL``.
 
+
 Email notifications
 -------------------
 
-When the administrator correctly specified the email settings in the Kallithea
+With email settings properly configured in the Kallithea
 configuration file, Kallithea will send emails on user registration and when
 errors occur.
 
 Emails are also sent for comments on changesets. In this case, an email is sent
 to the committer of the changeset (if known to Kallithea), to all reviewers of
 the pull request (if applicable) and to all people mentioned in the comment
 using @mention notation.
 
 
 Trending source files
 ---------------------
 
 Trending source files are calculated based on a predefined dictionary of known
 types and extensions. If an extension is missing or you would like to scan
 custom files, it is possible to extend the ``LANGUAGES_EXTENSIONS_MAP``
 dictionary located in ``kallithea/config/conf.py`` with new types.
 
 
 Cloning remote repositories
 ---------------------------
 
 Kallithea has the ability to clone repositories from given remote locations.
 Currently it supports the following options:
 
 - hg  -> hg clone
 - svn -> hg clone
 - git -> git clone
 
 
 .. note:: svn -> hg cloning requires the ``hgsubversion`` library to be
    installed.
 
 If you need to clone repositories that are protected via basic authentication,
 you can pass the credentials in the URL, e.g.
 ``http://user:[e-mail]/repo``. Kallithea will then try to login and
 clone using the given credentials. Please note that the given credentials will
 be stored as plaintext inside the database. However, the authentication
 information will not be shown in the clone URL on the summary page.
 
 
 Specific features configurable in the Admin settings
 ----------------------------------------------------
 
 In general, the Admin settings should be self-explanatory and will not be
 described in more detail in this documentation. However, there are a few
 features that merit further explanation.
 
 Repository extra fields
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
-In the `Visual` tab, there is an option `Use repository extra
-fields`, which allows to set custom fields for each repository in the system.
-Each new field consists of 3 attributes: ``field key``, ``field label``,
-``field description``.
+In the *Visual* tab, there is an option "Use repository extra
+fields", which allows to set custom fields for each repository in the system.
+
+Once enabled site-wide, the custom fields can be edited per-repository under
+*Options* | *Settings* | *Extra Fields*.
 
 Example usage of such fields would be to define company-specific information
 into repositories, e.g., defining a ``repo_manager`` key that would give info
 about a manager of each repository.  There's no limit for adding custom fields.
 Newly created fields are accessible via the API.
 
 Meta tagging
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
-In the `Visual` tab, option `Stylify recognised meta tags` will cause Kallithea
-to turn certain meta-tags, detected in repository and repository group
-descriptions, into colored tags. Currently recognised tags are::

+    large amounts of traffic (many users, CI servers, etc.). Kallithea can be
     scaled horizontally on one (recommended) or multiple machines. In order
     to scale horizontally you need to do the following:
 
     - Each instance needs its own .ini file and unique ``instance_id`` set.
     - Each instance's ``data`` storage needs to be configured to be stored on a
       shared disk storage, preferably together with repositories. This ``data``
       dir contains template caches, sessions, whoosh index and is used for
       task locking (so it is safe across multiple instances). Set the
       ``cache_dir``, ``index_dir``, ``beaker.cache.data_dir``, ``beaker.cache.lock_dir``
       variables in each .ini file to a shared location across Kallithea instances
     - If celery is used each instance should run a separate Celery instance, but
       the message broker should be common to all of them (e.g.,  one
       shared RabbitMQ server)
     - Load balance using round robin or IP hash, recommended is writing LB rules
       that will separate regular user traffic from automated processes like CI
       servers or build bots.

+Kallithea has a *repository statistics* feature, disabled by default. When
 enabled, the amount of commits per committer is visualized in a timeline. This
 feature can be enabled using the ``Enable statistics`` checkbox on the

 The statistics system makes heavy demands on the server resources, so
 in order to keep a balance between usability and performance, statistics are
 cached inside the database and gathered incrementally.
 
 When Celery is disabled:
 
   On each first visit to the summary page a set of 250 commits are parsed and
   added to the statistics cache. This incremental gathering also happens on each
   visit to the statistics page, until all commits are fetched.
 
   Statistics are kept cached until additional commits are added to the
   repository. In such a case Kallithea will only fetch the new commits when
   updating its statistics cache.
 
 When Celery is enabled:
 
   On the first visit to the summary page, Kallithea will create tasks that will
   execute on Celery workers. These tasks will gather all of the statistics until

 ===============
 
 :Q: **Missing static files?**
 :A: Make sure either to set the ``static_files = true`` in the .ini file or
    double check the root path for your http setup. It should point to
    for example:
    ``/home/my-virtual-python/lib/python2.7/site-packages/kallithea/public``

 :Q: **Can't install celery/rabbitmq?**
 :A: Don't worry. Kallithea works without them, too. No extra setup is required.
     Try out the great Celery docs for further help.
 
 |
 
 :Q: **Long lasting push timeouts?**
 :A: Make sure you set a longer timeout in your proxy/fcgi settings. Timeouts
     are caused by the http server and not Kallithea.
 
 |
 
 :Q: **Large pushes timeouts?**
 :A: Make sure you set a proper ``max_body_size`` for the http server. Very often
     Apache, Nginx, or other http servers kill the connection due to to large
     body.
 
 |
 
 :Q: **Apache doesn't pass basicAuth on pull/push?**
 :A: Make sure you added ``WSGIPassAuthorization true``.
 
 |
 
 :Q: **Git fails on push/pull?**
 :A: Make sure you're using a WSGI http server that can handle chunked encoding
     such as ``waitress`` or ``gunicorn``.
 
 |
 
 :Q: **How can I use hooks in Kallithea?**
 :A: It's easy if they are Python hooks: just use advanced link in
     hooks section in Admin panel, that works only for Mercurial. If
     you want to use Git hooks, just install th proper one in the repository,
     e.g., create a file `/gitrepo/hooks/pre-receive`. You can also use
     Kallithea-extensions to connect to callback hooks, for both Git
     and Mercurial.
