model/scm: fix incorrect reporting of pull from remote git repo
In issue #327 it was reported that the pull of a remote git repo causes the
following inaccurate journal entry:
"committed via Kallithea into repository"
The problem is caused by the following flow:
1. pull_changes calls _handle_push for git repos, passing
action='push_remote'.
2. _handle_push calls _handle_rc_scm_extras, but does not pass 'action'
3. _handle_rc_scm_extras uses a default value of 'push_local' for action.
4. The action string 'push_local' will result in the mentioned journal
entry, via action_map in action_parser() (kallithea/lib/helpers.py).
To get a more accurate log entry, _handle_push should pass the action that
it got from pull_changes. In that case, the log entry will become
"pulled from remote into repository"

=============================
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
.. _waitress: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/waitress
.. _gunicorn: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/gunicorn
