repo groups: make it possible to remove own explicit permissions, now when group owners always have admin permissions Until recently, group owners very given explicit admin permissions on repo group, and special care was taken to make sure they didn't remove themselves. Now we always give admin permissions to owners, and don't care about the explicit permissions. We no longer add them when creating groups or changing owner. There is no migration step to remove redundant permissions, but we should allow group admins to remove them. This change will thus remove the mechanism for preventing removal of own/owner permissions.

Version control systems setup

Kallithea supports Git and Mercurial repositories out-of-the-box. For Git, you do need the git command line client installed on the server.

You can always disable Git or Mercurial support by editing the file kallithea/__init__.py and commenting out the backend. For example, to disable Git but keep Mercurial enabled:

BACKENDS = {
    'hg': 'Mercurial repository',
    #'git': 'Git repository',
}

Git-specific setup

Web server with chunked encoding

Large Git pushes require an HTTP server with support for chunked encoding for POST. The Python web servers waitress and gunicorn (Linux only) can be used. By default, Kallithea uses waitress for gearbox serve instead of the built-in paste WSGI server.

The web server used by gearbox is controlled in the .ini file:

use = egg:waitress#main

or:

use = egg:gunicorn#main

Also make sure to comment out the following options:

threadpool_workers =
threadpool_max_requests =
use_threadpool =

Increasing Git HTTP POST buffer size

If Git pushes fail with HTTP error code 411 (Length Required), you may need to increase the Git HTTP POST buffer. Run the following command as the user that runs Kallithea to set a global Git variable to this effect:

git config --global http.postBuffer 524288000
