pullrequests: detect invalid reviewers and raise HTTPBadRequest

Normally, the creation of a pullrequest with invalid reviewers is not
possible because the list of reviewers is populated from a form element
that only shows valid reviewers.
However, if creating a pullrequest through an API call, invalid reviewers
can be specified but would not be detected. The reviewer would be encoded
in the database as 'NULL'/None, and opening such a pull request would cause
a server error.

Instead, detect invalid reviewers at pullrequest creation/update time and
raise HTTPBadRequest.

.. _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.
