templates/summary: escape branch/tag/bookmark names in 'Download as zip' links to prevent XSS

On a repository summary page, in the 'Download' section where you can
download an archive of the repository at a given revision, the branch/tag
names were not correctly escaped.

This means that if an attacker is able to push a branch/tag/bookmark
containing HTML/JavaScript in its name, then that code would be evaluated.
This is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability.

Fix the problem by correctly escaping the branch/tag/bookmarks.

Reported by Bob Hogg <wombat@rwhogg.site> (thanks!).
.. _backup:

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================


Settings
--------

Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.


Whoosh index
------------

The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located


Database
--------

When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.

A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
