controllers: don't pass rendered templates in context variables

Some controllers used the followifng pattern:
- render a data template into a context variable
- for partial (ajax) requests, return the contents of this variable
- for full-page requests, render the full page, which expands the value of
the context variable

Instead, avoid context variables let the controller simply render the full or partial page, and let
the full page template include the partial page.

Remove this context variable for templating and use render exclusively.
From templates, use %include instead of context variables.

This in line with the suggestions in the Pylons documentation:
http://pylons-webframework.readthedocs.org/en/latest/helpers.html#partial-updates-with-ajax

.. _subrepos:

=============================================
working with Kallithea and mercurial subrepos
=============================================

example usage of Subrepos with Kallithea::

    ## init a simple repo
    hg init repo1
    cd repo1
    echo "file1" > file1
    hg add file1
    hg ci --message "initial file 1"

    #clone subrepo we want to add
    hg clone http://rc.local/subrepo

    ## use path like url to existing repo in Kallithea
    echo "subrepo = http://rc.local/subrepo" > .hgsub

    hg add .hgsub
    hg ci --message "added remote subrepo"



In file list of repo1 you will see a connected subrepo at revision it was
during cloning.
Clicking in subrepos link should send you to proper repository in Kallithea

cloning repo1 will also clone attached subrepository.

Next we can edit the subrepo data, and push back to Kallithea. This will update
both of repositories.
