2012-06-25git-remote-mediawiki: add credential supportLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-12/+94
The previous version implemented the possibility to log in a wiki, but the username and password had to be provided as configuration variables. We add the possibility to use the Git credential system to prompt the password. The support if implemented with generic functions that mimic the C API, designed to be usable from other contexts in the future (i.e. they may migrate to Git.pm if someone is interested). While we're there, do a bit of refactoring in mw_connect_maybe. Based on patch by: Javier Roucher Iglesias <Javier.Roucher-Iglesias@ensimag.imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-10-20git-remote-mediawiki: don't include HTTP login/password in authorLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-0/+4
On the MediaWiki side, the author information is just the MediaWiki login of the contributor. The import turns it into login@$wiki_name to create the author's email address on the wiki side. But we don't want this to include the HTTP password if it's present in the URL ... Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-09-28git-remote-mediawiki: allow a domain to be set for authenticationLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-0/+3
When the wiki uses e.g. LDAP for authentication, the web interface shows a popup to allow the user to chose an authentication domain, and we need to use lgdomain in the API at login time. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2011-09-27git-remote-mediawiki: set 'basetimestamp' to let the wiki handle conflictsLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-6/+37
We already have a check that no new revisions are on the wiki at the beginning of the push, but this didn't handle concurrent accesses to the wiki. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-09-27git-remote-mediawiki: trivial fixesLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-2/+1
Fix a whitespace issue (no space before :) and remove unused %status in mw_push. Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <Matthieu.Moy@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-09-01git-remote-mediawiki: allow push to set MediaWiki metadataLibravatar Matthieu Moy1-2/+33
Push can not set the commit note "mediawiki_revision:" and update the remote reference. This avoids having to "git pull --rebase" after each push, and is probably more natural. Make it the default, but let it be configurable with mediawiki.dumbPush or remote.<remotename>.dumbPush.

2011-09-01Add a remote helper to interact with mediawiki (fetch & push)Libravatar Jeremie Nikaes1-0/+756
Implement a gate between git and mediawiki, allowing git users to push and pull objects from mediawiki just as one would do with a classic git repository thanks to remote-helpers. The following packages need to be installed (available on common repositories): libmediawiki-api-perl libdatetime-format-iso8601-perl Use remote helpers in order to be as transparent as possible to the git user. Download Mediawiki revisions through the Mediawiki API and then fast-import into git. Mediawiki revision number and git commits are linked thanks to notes bound to commits. The import part is done on a refs/mediawiki/<remote> branch before coming to refs/remote/origin/master (Huge thanks to Jonathan Nieder for his help) We use UTF-8 everywhere: use encoding 'utf8'; does most of the job, but we also read the output of Git commands in UTF-8 with the small helper run_git, and write to the console (STDERR) in UTF-8. This allows a seamless use of non-ascii characters in page titles, but hasn't been tested on non-UTF-8 systems. In particular, UTF-8 encoding for filenames could raise problems if different file systems handle UTF-8 filenames differently. A uri_escape of mediawiki filenames could be imaginable, and is still to be discussed further. Partial cloning is supported using one of: git clone -c remote.origin.pages='A_Page Another_Page' mediawiki::http://wikiurl git clone -c remote.origin.categories='Some_Category' mediawiki::http://wikiurl git clone -c remote.origin.shallow='True' mediawiki::http://wikiurl Thanks to notes metadata, it is possible to compare remote and local last mediawiki revision to warn non-fast forward pushes and "everything up-to-date" case. When allowed, push looks for each commit between remotes/origin/master and HEAD, catches every blob related to these commit and push them in chronological order. To do so, it uses git rev-list --children HEAD and travels the tree from remotes/origin/master to HEAD through children. In other words: * Shortest path from remotes/origin/master to HEAD * For each commit encountered, push blobs related to this commit Signed-off-by: Jérémie Nikaes <jeremie.nikaes@ensimag.imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Arnaud Lacurie <arnaud.lacurie@ensimag.imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Claire Fousse <claire.fousse@ensimag.imag.fr> Signed-off-by: David Amouyal <david.amouyal@ensimag.imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Matthieu Moy <matthieu.moy@grenoble-inp.fr> Signed-off-by: Sylvain Boulmé <sylvain.boulme@imag.fr> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
