login: include query parameters in came_from
The login controller uses the came_from query argument to determine
the page to continue to after login.
Previously, came_from specified only the URL path (obtained using
h.url.current), and any URL query parameters were passed along as
separate (additional) URL query parameters; to obtain the final redirect
target, h.url was used to combine came_from with the request.GET.
As of this changeset, came_from specifies both the URL path and query
string (obtained using request.path_qs), which means that came_from can
be used directly as the redirect target (as always, WebOb handles the
task of expanding the server relative path to a fully qualified URL).
The mangling of request.GET can also be removed.
The login code appended arbitrary, user-supplied query parameters to
URLs by calling the Routes URLGenerator (h.url) with user-supplied
keyword arguments. This construct is unfortunate, since url only
appends _unknown_ keyword arguments as query parameters, and the
parameter names could overlap with known keyword arguments, possibly
affecting the generated URL in various ways. This changeset removes
this usage from the login code, but other instances remain.
(In practice, the damage is apparently limited to causing an Internal
Server Error when going to e.g. "/_admin/login?host=foo", since WebOb
returns Unicode strings and URLGenerator only allows byte strings for
these keyword arguments.)

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.

'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 paster 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.
