locale: fix environment checks: LC_ALL has precedence over LC_CTYPE
'man 7 locale' describes following precedence:
If the second argument to setlocale(3) is an empty string, "", for
the default locale, it is determined using the following steps:
1. If there is a non-null environment variable LC_ALL, the value of
LC_ALL is used.
2. If an environment variable with the same name as one of the
categories above exists and is non-null, its value is used for that
category.
3. If there is a non-null environment variable LANG, the value of
LANG is used.
So, if LC_ALL is set, it is used regardless of LC_CTYPE or LANG.
Hence, when suggesting users what to change when their locale is invalid, we
should also first check LC_ALL instead of LC_CTYPE.

=============================
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

.. _gunicorn: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/gunicorn
