* about: allow to give head from query•••Reading the README from repository used to be limited to default branch or a branch given in configuration. Let's allow a branch from query if not specified explicitly. Signed-off-by: Christian Hesse <mail@eworm.de> Christian Hesse2022-12-191-5/+5
* ui-snapshot: add support for zstd compression•••This patch adds support for zstd [0] compressed snapshots (*.tar.zst). We enable multiple working threads (-T0), but keep default compression level. The latter can be influenced by environment variable. [0] https://www.zstd.net/ Signed-off-by: Christian Hesse <mail@eworm.de> Christian Hesse2020-03-121-3/+6

* ui-tree: allow per repository override for enable-blame•••The blame operation can cause high cost in terms of CPU load for huge repositories. Let's add a per repository override for enable-blame. Signed-off-by: Christian Hesse <mail@eworm.de> Christian Hesse2019-06-251-0/+4

* Add "snapshot-prefix" repo configuration•••Allow using a user-specified value for the prefix in snapshot files instead of the repository basename. For example, files downloaded from the linux-stable.git repository should be named linux-$VERSION and not linux-stable-$VERSION, which can be achieved by setting: repo.snapshot-prefix=linux Signed-off-by: John Keeping <john@keeping.me.uk> Reviewed-by: Christian Hesse <mail@eworm.de> John Keeping2018-06-271-0/+7

* ui-plain: add enable-html-serving flag•••Unrestricts plain/ to contents likely to be executed by browser. Jason A. Donenfeld2016-01-141-0/+11
* log: allow users to follow a file•••Teach the "log" UI to behave in the same way as "git log --follow", when given a suitable instruction by the user. The default behaviour remains to show the log without following renames, but the follow behaviour can be activated by following a link in the page header. Follow is not the default because outputting merges in follow mode is tricky ("git log --follow" will not show merges). We also disable the graph in follow mode because the commit graph is not simplified so we end up with frequent gaps in the graph and many lines that do not connect with any commits we're actually showing. We also teach the "diff" and "commit" UIs to respect the follow flag on URLs, causing the single-file version of these UIs to detect renames. This feature is needed only for commits that rename the path we're interested in. For commits before the file has been renamed (i.e. that appear later in the log list) we change the file path in the links from the log to point to the old name; this means that links to commits always limit by the path known to that commit. If we didn't do this we would need to walk down the log diff'ing every commit whenever we want to show a commit. The drawback is that the "Log" link in the top bar of such a page links to the log limited by the old name, so it will only show pre-rename commits. I consider this a reasonable trade-off since the "Back" button still works and the log matches the path displayed in the top bar. Since following renames requires running diff on every commit we consider, I've added a knob to the configuration file to globally enable/disable this feature. Note that we may consider a large number of commits the revision walking machinery no longer performs any path limitation so we have to examine every commit until we find a page full of commits that affect the target path or something related to it.

* Add repo.hide and repo.ignore•••These options can be used to hide a repository from the index or completely ignore a repository, respectively. They are particularly useful when used in combination with scan-path. Signed-off-by: Lukas Fleischer <cgit@cryptocrack.de> Lukas Fleischer2015-01-291-0/+10

* Skip cache slot when time-to-live is zero•••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> Lukas Fleischer2014-02-211-8/+14
* Add a cache-snapshot-ttl configuration variable•••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).

* authentication: use hidden form instead of referer•••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> Jason A. Donenfeld2014-01-161-1/+2
* auth: add basic authentication filter framework•••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.

* cache: document negative ttls and add about ttl•••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.
