Removed shortlog aka lightweight changelog.
Current version of changelog is fast and condensed.
There's no sense to keep changelog duplicity.

.. _git_support:

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


Git support in RhodeCode 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 RhodeCode 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 RhodeCode.

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 **rhodecode/__init__.py** and commenting out backends

.. code-block:: python

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