comment handling: extend next/previous links to global comments (issue #91)

Until now, only inline comments were linked to each other with next/previous
links.

This commit extends this mechanism to global comments, such that the last
inline comment has a next link to the first global comment, which has a next
link to the next global comment (and the other way around for previous
links).

In order to work well, instead of hiding inline comments that have been
moved, they actually have to be deleted.

.. _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',
   }
