Release notes for Gerrit 2.0.24, 2.0.24.1, 2.0.24.2
|

===================================================
|
|
|

Gerrit 2.0.24 is now available in the usual location:

Schema Change
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
*WARNING: This version contains a schema change* (since 2.0.21)
|
|
|
|
Apply the database specific schema script:
|
|
----
|
|
java -jar gerrit.war --cat sql/upgrade018_019_postgres.sql | psql reviewdb
|
|
java -jar gerrit.war --cat sql/upgrade018_019_mysql.sql | mysql reviewdb
|

|
LDAP Change
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
LDAP groups are now bound via their full distinguished name, and not
|
|
by their common name. Sites using LDAP groups will need to have the
|
|
site administrator visit every LDAP backed group through the web UI
|
|
(Admin > Groups), search for, and select the underlying LDAP group
|
|
from the directory server.
|
|
|
|
This change was made to remove some of the guesswork when it comes
|
|
to setting up an LDAP enabled group, as well as to permit creating
|
|
new LDAP enabled groups completely from the web UI. It also removes
|
|
an ambiguous case when different parts of the same directory space
|
|
create identically named groups.
|
|
|
|
|
|
New Features
|
|
------------
|
|
* Check if the user has permission to upload changes
|
|
+
|
|
The new READ +2 permission is required to upload a change to a
|
|
project, while READ +1 permits read but denies uploading a change.
|
|
The schema upgrade script automatically converts READ +1 to +2.
|
|
|
|
* Use LDAP DN to match LDAP group to Gerrit group
|
|
* issue 297 Allow admins to search for and bind to LDAP groups
|
|
+
|
|
As noted above, LDAP groups now use the full DN to match to their
|
|
Gerrit database counterpart, rather than just the common name.
|
|
Administrators may now create Gerrit groups and attach them to
|
|
any LDAP group, by performing a query on the LDAP directory for
|
|
matching groups and selecting a result.
|
|
|
|
* issue 301 Try to prevent forgotten `git add` during replace
|
|
+
|
|
Users are now stopped from performing a replace of a patch set if
|
|
they have not made a meaningful change (modify a file, or modify
|
|
the commit message). If only the commit message was modified,
|
|
a warning is printed, but the replace still occurs.
|
|
|
|
* issue 126 Link to our issue tracker in the page footer
|
|
+
|
|
The footer now includes a link to the Gerrit project's issue
|
|
tracker, so end-users can more easily report bugs or feature
|
|
requests back to the developers.
|
|
|
|
* issue 300 Support SMTP over SSL/TLS
|
|
+
|
|
Encrypted SMTP is now supported natively within Gerrit, see
|
|
link:http://gerrit.googlecode.com/svn/documentation/2.0/config-gerrit.html#sendemail.smtpEncryption[sendemail.smtpEncryption]
|
|
|
|
Bug Fixes
|
|
---------
|
|
* issue 290 Fix invalid drop index in upgrade017_018_mysql
|
|
+
|
|
Minor syntax error in SQL script.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed ActiveDirectory LDAP group support. Allows recu...
|
|
* issue 307 Set proper LDAP defaults for Active Directory
|
|
+
|
|
ActiveDirectory is now better supported out of the box. Defaults
|
|
for the LDAP configuration settings are automatically guessed at
|
|
startup based upon the type of server configured in ldap.server.
|
|
Recursive groups (group which is a member of a group) is also
|
|
now supported when using an ActiveDirectory server. Other LDAP
|
|
servers (e.g. OpenLDAP) probably don't support this.
|
|
|
|
* "250-AUTH " will be returned if 'AUTH' response does ...
|
|
* Fix: Authentication fail when authTypes is empty
|
|
* Fix a typo that broke the gerrit build
|
|
+
|
|
Outgoing SMTP sometimes failed to authenticate against a
|
|
SMTP server due to slightly incorrect handling of the AUTH
|
|
advertisement.
|
|
|
|
* Correct scp commands in documentation to include -p
|
|
+
|
|
Our documentation of how to copy the commit-msg hook down via
|
|
scp did not include the -p option, which is necessary to make
|
|
the client preserve the executable flag on the hook script.
|
|
|
|
* issue 291 Suggest latin1 charset for MySQL databases
|
|
+
|
|
Documentation was updated to encourage using latin1 for MySQL
|
|
as MySQL fails with key too long errors during schema creation
|
|
when the database is using the UTF-8 character set.
|
|
|
|
* issue 294 Fix OpenID self registration dialog
|
|
+
|
|
OpenID 'Register' hyperlink was broken due to the dialog having
|
|
no content added to it before display. This bug was fixed by
|
|
using the proper OpenID login dialog.
|
|
|
|
* issue 309 Clear message on publish comments screen after submit...
|
|
+
|
|
The publish comments button preserved your last comment, making
|
|
it easy for a user to accidentally publish the same message on
|
|
the same change twice. The message is now cleared after it has
|
|
been successfully sent.
|
|
|
|
* issue 299 Remove the branches table from the database
|
|
* Display current branch SHA-1 in Branches tab
|
|
* issue 299 Display not-yet-born HEAD branch in Branches tab
|
|
+
|
|
The not-yet-born branch in an empty project is now shown in the
|
|
Branches tab. (This is based on the value of the HEAD symbolic
|
|
reference within the project's Git repository.)
|
|
The branches table was removed from the database. We now fully
|
|
rely upon the Git repository to determine which branches exist
|
|
and thus permit changes to be uploaded to.
|
|
|
|
* issue 296 Make help more friendly over SSH
|
|
+
|
|
`ssh -p 29418 localhost help` is now more user friendly.
|
|
|
|
* Don't request registration if the account exists
|
|
* issue 38 Fix OpenID delegate authentication
|
|
+
|
|
OpenID authentication was sometimes asking providers for
|
|
registation data when we already had it on hand, fixed.
|
|
OpenID delegate identities were being stored rather than claimed
|
|
identities when the claimed identity is just a delegate to the
|
|
delegate provider. We now store both in the account.
|
|
|
|
Fixes in 2.0.24.1
|
|
-----------------
|
|
* Fix unused import in OpenIdServiceImpl
|
|
* dev-readme: Fix formatting of initdb command
|
|
+
|
|
Minor documentation/code fixes with no impact on execution.
|
|
|
|
* Fix LDAP account lookup when user not in group
|
|
+
|
|
Fixes a NullPointerException when a user is not in any group
|
|
and the underlying LDAP server is ActiveDirectory.
|
|
|
|
* issue 315 Correct sendemail.smtppass
|
|
+
|
|
Fixes sendemail configuration to use the documented smtppass
|
|
variable and not the undocumented smtpuserpass variable.
|
|
|
|
Fixes in 2.0.24.2
|
|
-----------------
|
|
* Fix CreateSchema to create Administrators group
|
|
* Fix CreateSchema to set type of Registered Users group
|
|
* Default AccountGroup instances to type INTERNAL
|
|
* Document the various AccountGroup.Type states better
|
|
+
|
|
CreateSchema was broken in 2.0.24 and 2.0.24.1 due to the default
|
|
groups being misconfigured during insertion. Fixed.
|
|
|
|
* Grant anonymous uses READ +1, registered users READ +...
|
|
+
|
|
Default permissions were a bit confusing, there is no point in an
|
|
anonymous user having READ +2.
|
|
|
|
* Use the H2 database for unit tests
|
|
* Unit test for SystemConfigProvider and CreateSchema
|
|
+
|
|
Added unit tests to validate CreateSchema works properly, so we
|
|
don't have a repeat of breakage here.
|
|
