ssh: introduce ini setting 'ssh_enabled', disabled by default
Administrators should control the use of SSH and may want to disable SSH
access, temporarily or permanently.
An explicit setting ssh_enabled is better than e.g. checking for a valid
ssh_authorized_keys setting, to allow such trivial temporary disabling.
To keep the controllers simple, introduce a decorator IfSshEnabled instead
of repeating the same config checks in every method.

=============================
Version control systems setup
=============================
Kallithea supports Git and Mercurial repositories out-of-the-box.
For Git, you do need the ``git`` command line client installed on the server.
You can always disable Git or Mercurial support by editing the
file ``kallithea/__init__.py`` and commenting out the backend. For example, to
disable Git but keep Mercurial enabled:
.. code-block:: python
BACKENDS = {
'hg': 'Mercurial repository',
#'git': 'Git repository',
}
Git-specific setup
------------------
Web server with chunked encoding
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Large Git pushes require an HTTP server with support for
chunked encoding for POST. The Python web servers waitress_ and
gunicorn_ (Linux only) can be used. By default, Kallithea uses
waitress_ for `gearbox serve` instead of the built-in `paste` WSGI
server.
The web server used by gearbox is controlled in the .ini file::
use = egg:waitress#main
or::
use = egg:gunicorn#main
Also make sure to comment out the following options::
threadpool_workers =
threadpool_max_requests =
use_threadpool =
Increasing Git HTTP POST buffer size
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If Git pushes fail with HTTP error code 411 (Length Required), you may need to
increase the Git HTTP POST buffer. Run the following command as the user that
runs Kallithea to set a global Git variable to this effect::
git config --global http.postBuffer 524288000
