=head1 GIT SMART HTTP SUPPORT

Git's smart HTTP protocol will not work with the above settings. Redmine.pm

normally does access control depending on the HTTP method used: read-only

methods are OK for everyone in public projects and members with read rights

in private projects. The rest all require membership with write rights in the

project.

However, this scheme doesn't work for Git's smart HTTP protocol, as it will use

POST even for a simple clone. Instead, read-only requests must be detected

using the full URL (including the query string): anything that doesn't belong

to the git-receive-pack service is read-only.

To activate this mode of operation, add this line inside your <Location /git>

block:

  RedmineGitSmartHttp yes

Once you have activated this option, you have two options when cloning a

repository. Cloning using "http://user@host/git/repo" works, but will ask for

the password all the time. To avoid being pestered by password requests, it's

best to create a ~/.netrc file with your username and password, and clone using

"http://host/git/repo" instead.

IMPORTANT NOTE: It is *very important* that the file cannot be read by other

users, as it will contain your password in cleartext. To create the file, you

can use the following commands, replacing yourhost, youruser and yourpassword

with the right values:

  touch ~/.netrc

  chmod 600 .netrc

  echo -e "machine yourhost\nlogin youruser\npassword yourpassword" > ~/.netrc
