2014-02-21Clean up cache documentation.Jason A. Donenfeld1-22/+25
Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>
2014-02-21Skip cache slot when time-to-live is zeroLukas Fleischer1-8/+14
If time-to-live is set to zero, we don't need to regenerate the cache slots on every request. Instead, just skip the caching process and immediately provide the dynamically generated version of the page. Setting time-to-live to zero is useful when you want to disable caching for certain pages. Signed-off-by: Lukas Fleischer <cgit@cryptocrack.de>
2014-02-20Add a cache-snapshot-ttl configuration variableLukas Fleischer1-0/+5
This can be used to specify the TTL for snapshots. Snapshots are usually static and do not ever change. On the other hand, tarball generation is CPU intensive. One use case of this setting (apart from increasing the lifetime of snapshot cache slots) is caching of snapshots while disabling the cache for static/dynamic HTML pages (by setting TTL to zero for everything except for snapshot requests).

2014-01-16auth: have cgit calculate login addressJason A. Donenfeld1-2/+3
This way we're sure to use virtual root, or any other strangeness encountered. Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>
2014-01-16authentication: use hidden form instead of refererJason A. Donenfeld1-1/+2
This also gives us some CSRF protection. Note that we make use of the hmac to protect the redirect value. Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>
2014-01-16auth: add basic authentication filter frameworkJason A. Donenfeld1-1/+35
This leverages the new lua support. See filters/simple-authentication.lua for explaination of how this works. There is also additional documentation in cgitrc.5.txt. Though this is a cookie-based approach, cgit's caching mechanism is preserved for authenticated pages. Very plugable and extendable depending on user needs. The sample script uses an HMAC-SHA1 based cookie to store the currently logged in user, with an expiration date. Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>
2014-01-14filter: allow returning exit code from filterJason A. Donenfeld1-1/+2
Filters can now indicate a status back to cgit by means of the exit code for exec, or the return value from close for Lua. Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>
2014-01-14cgitrc.5.txt: Fix documentation of the snapshot maskLukas Fleischer1-6/+7
Mention that the snapshot setting only specifies the formats that links are generated for and not the set of formats that are accessible via HTTP. Signed-off-by: Lukas Fleischer <cgit@cryptocrack.de>
2014-01-14filter: add page source to email filterJason A. Donenfeld1-7/+8
Since the email filter is called from lots of places, the script might benefit from knowing the origin. That way it can modify its contents and/or size depending. Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>

2013-08-12cache: document negative ttls and add about ttlJason A. Donenfeld1-10/+18
We've long supported negative ttls, for infinite cache, except the documentation incorrectly showed one of our defaults as being 5 and not -1. As well, with a negative ttl, we were actually making the HTTP expired header go backwards. This changes it to go ahead ten years instead. Further, we add an cache-about-ttl option to set a different ttl for about pages, which are now increasingly being filtered through markdown or just sent statically anyway. Signed-off-by: Jason A.

2013-05-25ui-summary: Pass filename to about-filterJason A. Donenfeld1-3/+5
This gives the about-filter API the same semantics as source-filter, where the filter receives the filename so it can decide what to do next with it. While we're at it, plug a memory leak. Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>

2013-04-10cgitrc.5.txt: Specify when scan-path must be defined before.Jason A. Donenfeld1-9/+11
Several options must be specified prior to scan-path. This is consistant source of user confusion. Document these facts. Suggested-by: Lukas Fleischer <cgit@cryptocrack.de> Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>
2013-04-10Add branch-sort and repo.branch-sort options.Jason A. Donenfeld1-18/+28
When set to "name", branches are sorted by name, which is the current default. When set to "age", branches are sorted by the age of the repository. This feature was requested by Konstantin Ryabitsev for use on kernel.org. Proposed-by: Konstantin Ryabitsev <mricon@kernel.org>

This makes it possible to use strict commit date ordering or strict topological ordering by passing the corresponding flags to "git log". Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>
2012-10-17ui-repolist: Add "section-sort" flag to control section sorting.Tobias Bieniek1-2/+8
Flag which, when set to "1", will sort the sections on the repository listing by name. Set this flag to "0" if the order in the cgitrc file should be preserved. Default value: "1". Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>
2012-10-17scan-tree: Unify gitweb.* and cgit.* settings into one config option.Jason A. Donenfeld1-18/+10
After some back and forth with Jamie and René, it looks like the git config semantics are going to be like this: - gitweb.category maps to the cgit repo config key "section" - gitweb.description maps to the cgit repo config key "desc" - gitweb.owner maps to the cgit repo config key "owner" - cgit.* maps to all cgit repo config keys This option can be enabled with "enable-git-config=1", and replaces all previous "enable-gitweb-*" config keys. The order of operations is as follows: - git config settings are applied in the order that they exist in the git config file - if the owner is not set from git config, get the owner using the usual getpwuid call - if the description is not set from git config, look inside the static $path/description file - if section-from-path=1, override whatever previous settings were inside of git config using the section-from-path logic - parse $path/cgitrc for local repo.* settings, that override all previous settings

2012-01-03shared.c: Only setenv() if value is non-nullLukas Fleischer1-1/+1
Some setenv() implementations (e.g. the one in OpenBSD's stdlib) segfault if we pass a NULL value. Only set environment variables if the corresponding settings are defined to avoid this. Note that this is a minor behaviour change as environment variables were supposed to be set to an empty string if a setting was undefined. Given that this feature isn't part of any official release yet, there's no need to worry about backwards compatibility, really. Change the documentation accordingly.

2011-07-19ui_plain: automatically lookup mimetype when mimetype-file is setFerry Huberts1-0/+11
For sites that do not want to configure mime types by hand but still want the correct mime type for 'plain' blobs, configuring a mime type file is made possible. This is handy since such a file is normally already provided (at least on Linux systems). Also, this reflects the gitweb option '$mimetypes_file' Signed-off-by: Ferry Huberts <ferry.huberts@pelagic.nl> Signed-off-by: Lars Hjemli <hjemli@gmail.com>
2011-06-20guess default branch from HEADJulius Plenz1-1/+2
This is a saner alternative than hardcoding the default branch to be "master". The add_repo() function will now check for a symbolic ref in repo_path/HEAD. If there is a suitable one, overwrite repo->defbranch with it. Note that you'll need to strip the newline from the file (-> len-17). If HEAD is a symbolic link pointing directly to a branch below refs/heads/, do a readlink() instead to find the ref name.

2011-06-15Do not provide a default value for `module-link`Lars Hjemli1-1/+1
The old default value was an abomination which never should have been allowed to see the light of day. This patch removes the default, which is a backwards incompatible change with low probability of causing anyone any real trouble (a repo with submodules, displayed by cgit using the default value of `module-link`, is very unlikely to actually generate working links). Signed-off-by: Lars Hjemli <hjemli@gmail.com>
2011-06-15ui-tree.c: add support for path-selected submodule linksLars Hjemli1-0/+6
The current 'repo.module-link' option is sufficient when all gitlinks in a repository can be converted to commit links in a uniform way, but not when different submodules/paths needs different settings. This patch adds support for 'repo.module-link.<path>', which will be used for linking to submodules at paths matching one such entry. Signed-off-by: Lars Hjemli <hjemli@gmail.com>

2011-06-14cgit.c: add 'clone-url' setting with support for macro expansionLars Hjemli1-3/+14
The current 'clone-prefix' setting has some known issues: * All repos get the same 'clone-prefix' value since the setting is not adopted during repo registration (in cgitrc, or during scan-path traversal), but only when the setting is used. * The generated clone-urls for a repo is a combination of 'clone-prefix', a slash and the repo url. This doesn't work well with e.g. ssh-style urls like 'git@example.org:repo.git', since the inserted slash will make the repo relative to the filesystem root. * If 'remove-suffix' is enabled, the generated clone-urls will not work for cloning (except for http-urls to cgit itself) since they miss the '.git' suffix. The new 'clone-url' setting is designed to avoid the mentioned issues: * Each repo adopts the default 'clone-url' when the repo is defined. This allows different groups of repos to adopt different values. * The clone-urls for a repo is generated by expanding environment variables in a string template without inserting arbitrary characters, hence any kind of clone-url can be generated. * Macro expansion also eases the 'remove-suffix' pain since it's now possible to define e.g. 'clone-url=git://foo.org/$CGIT_REPO_URL.git' for a set of repos. A furter improvement would be to define e.g. $CGIT_REPO_SUFFIX to '.git' for all repos which had their url prettified, or to store the original $CGIT_REPO_URL in e.g. $CGIT_REPO_REAL_URL before suffix removal.
