comments: don't hide comments made to lines outside the diff context

This is a hack but seems like the best way to solve the problem of users
increasing the context size and then making comments. The way things are done
makes it hard to come up with a better solution.

It should perhaps also be made impossible to comment on lines that isn't
changed in the changeset.

This issue is related to the need for a way to easily navigate to the
(unresolved) comments that has been made on a huge changeset.

.. _git_support:

===========
GIT support
===========


Git support in Kallithea 1.3 was enabled by default. You need to have a git
client installed on the machine to make git fully work.

Although There is one limitation on git usage.

- large pushes requires a http server with chunked encoding support.

if you plan to use git you need to run Kallithea with some
http server that supports chunked encoding which git http protocol uses,
i recommend using waitress_ or gunicorn_ (linux only) for `paste` wsgi app
replacement. Starting from version 1.4 waitress_ is the default wsgi server
used in Kallithea.

To use, simply change change the following in the .ini file::

    use = egg:Paste#http

to::

    use = egg:waitress#main

or::

    use = egg:gunicorn#main


And comment out bellow options::

    threadpool_workers =
    threadpool_max_requests =
    use_threadpool =


You can simply run `paster serve` as usual.


You can always disable git/hg support by editing a
file **kallithea/__init__.py** and commenting out backends

.. code-block:: python

   BACKENDS = {
       'hg': 'Mercurial repository',
       #'git': 'Git repository',
   }
