auth: construct AuthUser from either user_id or db.User object
If the caller already has the database User object, there's no reason
for AuthUser to look it up again.
The `api_key` lookup functionality is dropped, because 1) it's only
used in one place, and 2) it's simple enough for the caller to do the
lookup itself.
The `user_id` lookup functionality is kept, because 1) it's frequently
used, and 2) far from a simple `User.get(id)` lookup, it has a complex
interaction with UserModel. (That cleanup will have to wait for another
day.)
All calls of the form `AuthUser(user_id=x.user_id)` can be replaced with
`AuthUser(dbuser=x)`, assuming `x` is a db.User. However, verifying that
assumption requires a manual audit of every call site, since `x` might
also be another `AuthUser` object, for instance. Therefore, only the
most obvious call sites have been fixed here.

===============================
Version control systems support
===============================
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.
.. code-block:: python
BACKENDS = {
'hg': 'Mercurial repository',
#'git': 'Git repository',
}
Git support
-----------
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 `paster serve` instead of the built-in `paste` WSGI
server.
The default paste server 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 =
Mercurial support
-----------------
Working with Mercurial subrepositories
``````````````````````````````````````
This section explains how to use Mercurial subrepositories_ in Kallithea.
Example usage::
## init a simple repo
hg init mainrepo
cd mainrepo
echo "file" > file
hg add file
hg ci --message "initial file"
# clone subrepo we want to add from Kallithea
hg clone http://kallithea.local/subrepo
## specify URL to existing repo in Kallithea as subrepository path
echo "subrepo = http://kallithea.local/subrepo" > .hgsub
hg add .hgsub
hg ci --message "added remote subrepo"
In the file list of a clone of ``mainrepo`` you will see a connected
subrepository at the revision it was cloned with. Clicking on the
subrepository link sends you to the proper repository in Kallithea.
Cloning ``mainrepo`` will also clone the attached subrepository.
Next we can edit the subrepository data, and push back to Kallithea. This will
update both repositories.
