Reorganized to Apache Standard Directory Layout & integrated Moxie
This is a massive commit which reorganizes the entire project structure
(although it is still monolithic), removes the Build classes, and
switches to Moxie, a smarter Ant build tookit based on the original
Gitblit Build classes.
The Ant build script will likely require additional fine-tuning, but
this is big step forward.
Implemented discrete repository access permissions to replace the
really primitive course-grained permissions used to this point. This
implementation allows for finer-grained access control, but still
falls short of integrated, branch-based permissions sought by some.
Access permissions follow the conventions established by Gitosis and
Gitolite so they should feel immediately comfortable to experienced
users. This permissions infrastructure is complete and works exactly as
expected. Unfortunately, there is no ui in this commit to change
permissions, that will be forthcoming. In the meantime, Gitblit
hot-reloads users.conf so the permissions can be manipulated at runtime
with a text editor.
The following per-repository permissions are now supported:
- V (view in web ui, RSS feeds, download zip)
- R (clone)
- RW (clone and push)
- RWC (clone and push with ref creation)
- RWD (clone and push with ref creation, deletion)
- RW+ (clone and push with ref creation, deletion, rewind)
And a users.conf entry looks something like this:
[user "hannibal"]
password = bossman
repository = RWD:topsecret.git
Draft project pages, project metadata, and RSS feeds
This is an in-progress feature to offer an interface for grouped
repositories. This may help installations with large numbers of
repositories stay organized. It also will be part of a future,
more advanced security model.
Teams simplify the management of user-repository access permissions. Teams have a list of restricted repositories. Users are also added to teams and that grants them access to those repositories.
Federation and RPC support are still in-progress.
