auth: Fix tomcat throwing '505 HTTP Version Not Supported' when trying to log in to Atlassian Crowd with usernames that contain spaces

If you try to log in to Kallithea via the Crowd auth module, and the username
contains a space, it fails. Tomcat on the Crowd server gives error '505 HTTP
Version Not Supported'.

Further investigation showed that the username was not being quoted. E.g. for
the user 'test account', the REST URL should contain 'test%20account' but
actually was containing 'test account'. When Tomcat received this HTTP request
it interprets the word 'account' as the HTTP version because of the space. This
obviously isn't a valid HTTP version.

This bug is fixed by using urllib2.quote on the username to ensure that special
characters are correctly quoted. After making that change on my local install,
the user 'test account' was able to log in successfully.
.. _statistics:

=====================
Repository statistics
=====================

Kallithea has a *repository statistics* feature, disabled by default. When
enabled, the amount of commits per committer is visualized in a timeline. This
feature can be enabled using the ``Enable statistics`` checkbox on the
repository ``Settings`` page.

The statistics system makes heavy demands on the server resources, so
in order to keep a balance between usability and performance, statistics are
cached inside the database and gathered incrementally.

When Celery is disabled:

  On each first visit to the summary page a set of 250 commits are parsed and
  added to the statistics cache. This incremental gathering also happens on each
  visit to the statistics page, until all commits are fetched.

  Statistics are kept cached until additional commits are added to the
  repository. In such a case Kallithea will only fetch the new commits when
  updating its statistics cache.

When Celery is enabled:

  On the first visit to the summary page, Kallithea will create tasks that will
  execute on Celery workers. These tasks will gather all of the statistics until
  all commits are parsed. Each task parses 250 commits, then launches a new
  task.
