Reorganization of resources. Dropped most hard-coded webapp
configuration in favor of common web.xml file. Still contemplating
configuring git servlet from web.xml too.
Added AccessRestrictionFilter and simplified authentication.
Replaced servlet container basic authentication with a custom servlet
filter which performs the same function. The advantage to this is
that the servlet container is now divorced from the webapp.
The login service (realm) also simplified a great deal and removes its
Jetty dependencies.
Additionally, the basic authorization pop-up will be displayed as
needed based on the repository's access restriction. This was
necessary for view-restricted repositories with the RSS feature. Its
also necessary for completely open repositories as before it would
prompt for credentials.
Improved feed syndication feature.
Build infrastructure improvements. Setting to show remote branches.
The JGit team is now publishing 0.12.1 artifacts on the Eclipse Maven
site. Yeah! That was the last missing piece for a slick Git:Blit
deployment. The build has been reworked to download from Eclipse and
to also download source and javadoc jars for setting up a development
environment.
Made the log4j pattern configurable by operating system.
Moved Markdown utils to their own class since I need StringUtils for
Build and that introduced a chicken-and-egg scenario.
Settings overhaul. Fixes to authentication. Bind interface feature.
Settings access has been abstracted and the way is becoming clear to
offer a WAR build in addition to the integrated server stack. Util
methods moved around.
Authenticate the webapp against the same realm as the git servlet.
Right now the implementation is hard-coded to pass the realm into a
singleton. This won't work for a WAR distribution so I will
need to figure out how to properly authenticate the webapp using form
authentication and the git servlet using basic authentication - host
against the same realm.
