John 'Warthog9' Hawley	b62a1a98bc	gitweb: Load checking This changes slightly the behavior of gitweb, so that it verifies that the box isn't inundated with before attempting to serve gitweb. If the box is overloaded, it basically returns a 503 Server Unavailable until the load falls below the defined threshold. This helps dramatically if you have a box that's I/O bound, reaches a certain load and you don't want gitweb, the I/O hog that it is, increasing the pain the server is already undergoing. This behavior is controlled by $maxload configuration variable. Default is a load of 300, which for most cases should never be hit. Unset it (set it to undefined value, i.e. undef) to turn off checking. Currently it requires that '/proc/loadavg' file exists, otherwise the load check is bypassed (load is taken to be 0). So platforms that do not implement '/proc/loadavg' currently cannot use this feature (provisions are included for additional checks to be added by others). There is simple test in t/t9501-gitweb-standalone-http-status.sh to check that it correctly returns "503 Service Unavailable" if load is too high, and also if there are any Perl warnings or errors.

Jakub Narebski	4af819d4ca	gitweb: Incremental blame (using JavaScript) Add 'blame_incremental' view, which uses "git blame --incremental" and JavaScript (Ajax), where 'blame' use "git blame --porcelain". * gitweb generates initial info by putting file contents (from "git cat-file") together with line numbers in blame table * then gitweb makes web browser JavaScript engine call startBlame() function from gitweb.js * startBlame() opens XMLHttpRequest connection to 'blame_data' view, which in turn calls "git blame --incremental" for a file, and streams output of git-blame to JavaScript (gitweb.js) * XMLHttpRequest event handler updates line info in blame view as soon as it gets data from 'blame_data' (from server), and it also updates progress info * when 'blame_data' ends, and gitweb.js finishes updating line info, it fixes colors to match (as far as possible) ordinary 'blame' view, and updates information about how long it took to generate page. Gitweb deals with streamed 'blame_data' server errors by displaying them in the progress info area (just in case). The 'blame_incremental' view tries to be equivalent to 'blame' action; there are however a few differences in output between 'blame' and 'blame_incremental' view: * 'blame_incremental' always used query form for this part of link(s) which is generated by JavaScript code. The difference is visible if we use path_info link (pass some or all arguments in path_info). Changing this would require implementing something akin to href() subroutine from gitweb.perl in JavaScript (in gitweb.js). * 'blame_incremental' always uses "rowspan" attribute, even if rowspan="1". This simplifies code, and is not visible to user. * The progress bar and progress info are still there even after JavaScript part of 'blame_incremental' finishes work. Note that currently no link generated by gitweb leads to this new view. This code is based on patch by Petr Baudis <pasky@suse.cz> patch, which in turn was tweaked up version of Fredrik Kuivinen <frekui@gmail.com>'s proof of concept patch. This patch adds GITWEB_JS compile configuration option, and modifies git-instaweb.sh to take gitweb.js into account. The code for git-instaweb.sh was taken from Pasky's patch.

Giuseppe Bilotta	1bed73c64a	gitweb/README: fix AliasMatch in example When combining "dumb client" and human-friendly access by using the '.git' extension to switch between the two, make sure the AliasMatch covers the entire request. Without a full match, a request for http://git.example.com/project/shortlog/branch..gitsomething would result in a 404 because the server would try to access the the project 'project/shortlog/branch.' The solution is still not bulletproof, so document the possible failing case.

Matt McCutchen	7e1100e9e9	gitweb: add $prevent_xss option to prevent XSS by repository content Add a gitweb configuration variable $prevent_xss that disables features to prevent content in repositories from launching cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks in the gitweb domain. Currently, this option makes gitweb ignore README.html (a better solution may be worked out in the future) and serve a blob_plain file of an untrusted type with "Content-Disposition: attachment", which tells the browser not to show the file at its original URL. The XSS prevention is currently off by default. Signed-off-by: Matt McCutchen <matt@mattmccutchen.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>	16 years ago

Gerrit Pape	17a8b25005	gitweb: fallback to system-wide config file if default config does not exist From a distribution point of view, configuration files for applications should reside in /etc/. On the other hand it's convenient for multiple instances of gitweb (e.g. virtual web servers on a single machine) to have a per-instance configuration file, just as gitweb currently supports through the file gitweb_config.perl next to the cgi. To support both at runtime, this commit introduces GITWEB_CONFIG_SYSTEM as a system-wide configuration file which will be used as a fallback if the config file sprecified throug GITWEB_CONFIG does not exist.

Bruno Ribas	b59012ef4e	gitweb: Use the config file to set repository owner's name. Now gitweb checks if gitweb.owner exists before trying to get filesystem's owner. Allow to use configuration variable gitweb.owner set the repository owner, it checks the gitweb.owner, if not set it uses filesystem directory's owner. Useful when we don't want to maintain project list file, and all repository directories have to have the same owner (for example when the same SSH account is shared for all projects, using ssh_acl to control access instead).

Matthias Lederhofer	bb55f77fcd	gitweb: require $ENV{'GITWEB_CONFIG'} With this patch it is possible to use gitweb.perl for developing by loading the configuration from $GITWEB_CONFIG. This might also be useful for normal usage of gitweb. Example: % cat cfg $GIT = '/usr/bin/git'; $projectroot = '/home/matled/src/git'; $projects_list = '/home/matled/src/git/git/gitweb/list'; % cat run #!/bin/sh export GATEWAY_INTERFACE="CGI/1.1" export HTTP_ACCEPT="/" export REQUEST_METHOD="GET" export GITWEB_CONFIG='./cfg' export QUERY_STRING=""$1"" exec ./gitweb.perl % time ./run p=git/.git > /dev/null This makes it easy to check for warnings and do performance tests after changes, you can also pipe this to lynx -dump -force-html /dev/stdin to get more than just html.
