Pylons based replacement for hgwebdir

-------------------------------------

Fully customizable, with authentication, permissions. Based on vcs library.

**Overview**

- has it's own middleware to handle mercurial protocol request each request can 

  be logged and authenticated + threaded performance unlikely to hgweb

- full permissions per project read/write/admin access even on mercurial request

- diffs annotations and source code all colored by pygments.

- mercurial branch graph and yui-flot powered graphs with zooming and statistics

- full text search of source codes with indexing daemons using whoosh

  (no external search servers required all in one application)

- async tasks for speed and performance using celery (works without them too)  

- Additional settings for mercurial web, (hooks editable from admin

  panel !) also manage paths, archive, remote messages  

- backup scripts can do backup of whole app and send it over scp to desired location

- setup project descriptions and info inside built in db for easy, non 

  file-system operations

- rss / atom feeds, gravatar support

- based on pylons 1.0 / sqlalchemy 0.6

**Incoming**

- code review based on hg-review (when it's stable)

- git support (when vcs can handle it - almost there !)

- commit based wikis

- in server forks

- clonning from remote repositories into hg-app 

- other cools stuff that i can figure out (or You can help me figure out)

- Run `python setup.py install` in order to install the application and all

  needed dependencies. Make sure that You're using activated virutalenv  

- Run `paster setup-app production.ini` it should create all needed tables 

  and an admin account make sure You specify correct path to repositories. 

- Remember that the given path for mercurial repositories must be write 

  accessible for the application

- Run paster serve development.ini - or you can use sample init.d scripts.

  the app should be available at the 127.0.0.1:5000

- Use admin account you created to login.

- Default permissions on each repository is read, and owner is admin. So remember

  to update these.

- In order to use full power of async tasks, You must install message broker

  The app should gain a lot of speed and become much more responsible. 

  For installation instructions You can visit: 

  http://ask.github.com/celery/getting-started/index.html. 

- All needed configs are inside hg-app ie. celeryconfig.py , production.ini

  You can configure the email, ports, loggers, workers from there.

- For full text search You can either put crontab entry for 

  `python /var/www/hgapp/pylons_app/lib/indexers/daemon.py incremental <path_to_repos>`

  or run indexer from admin panel. This will scann the repos given in the 

  application setup or given path for daemon.py and each scann in incremental 

  mode will scann only changed files, 

  Hg Update hook must be activated to index the content it's enabled by default

  after setup
