email: send comment and pullrequest mails with the author's name in 'From'
When emails are sent for comments and pullrequest invitations, set the From
header to:
Author's Name (no-reply) <generic email address>
Using the name of the person that causes the email, makes the emails more
useful and interpretable for the recipient of the emails.
To avoid replies directly to the author, triggering an 'offline' email
discussion that is not visible in the Kallithea interface, a generic
'no-reply' email address is used instead of the author's email
address.
This approach is assumed to be accepted by spam filters, as several other
web services are using the same approach.
The sender used for other email types, e.g. password reset mails, is
untouched and remains the value configured in app_email_from.
The sender used for the SMTP envelope is untouched as well.

===============================
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 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.
