50 most recent check-ins by user stephan

2025-08-07
19:46
Add an assert() in a block which cannot happen. It survives 'reconstruct', so we can probably remove the block, but leaving it around for a while seems prudent. ... (check-in: 7d4af37f user: stephan tags: trunk)
2025-08-04
23:58
Add a NULL check where a change from [4c3e1728e1b1a9cb] inadvertently changed the semantics from NULL=="" to NULL==NULL, triggering a null pointer deref via backlinks parsing. Triggered by rebuild when encountering a tag with no value. ... (check-in: 441264b7 user: stephan tags: trunk)
2025-08-03
11:31
Eliminate a superfluous allocation and have freepass() zero out its storage to avoid a duplicate free() in the very off chance that it's ever called twice. These are cleanups made in passing, not fixing known problems. ... (check-in: 1c9d5cd8 user: stephan tags: trunk)
2025-08-02
17:56
Add the (user whoami) subcommand, which figures out who you are via db_find_and_open_repository(). In response to forum thread a174e200b018abbd. ... (check-in: a06df610 user: stephan tags: user-whoami)
2025-08-01
13:03
Fix diff -tk's handling of the file list when the Reload button is tapped and the list of files is changed. Problem reported in /chat. ... (check-in: 4bb41f92 user: stephan tags: trunk)
12:08
Change all datetime() calls in tktsetup.c to use toLocal() as their second argument so that they display in the configured timezone. This should resolve forum thread 82ac9af1533f78f7. ... (check-in: 2a39681a user: stephan tags: trunk)
2025-07-27
11:58
When unversioned content is saved, add an entry to the admin log. ... (check-in: 7991defa user: stephan tags: trunk)
11:07
Teach the sync protocol how to work with an out-of-band login card, saving an extra server-side copy of the sync content which is required only to account for an inlined login card. i.e. it saves RAM, potentially lots of it. The new login card mechanism is instead transported via an HTTP header. This also, not coincidentally, simplifies implementation of the login card in non-fossil(1) clients which are currently learning to speak the sync protocol. ... (check-in: 18628904 user: stephan tags: trunk)
2025-07-25
18:47
Do not add the sync login cookie unless we know the remote supports it. It's harmless in that case but it doesn't need to be there. Rename the login cookie from the unweildy x-f-x-l (X-Fossil-Xfer-Login) to x-f-l-c (X-Fossil-Login-Card) because the former is unsightly. ... (Closed-Leaf check-in: 9789e1dc user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
15:08
Extend the login card mode version check to include the date and time. It is currently still set to 2.27.1, but if/when merged then the version would need to be reverted to 2.27.0 and the version/date/time check will need to be set to compare against the trunk version from immediately before the merge. This needs more testing but looks like it will resolve the "post-2.26 trunk" incompatibility. ... (check-in: 86cc923d user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
2025-07-24
05:26
Remove the now-obsolete parsing of the X-Fossil-Xfer-Login HTTP header. ... (check-in: 8dbcf2ac user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
05:10
Use a Cookie, instead of a custom HTTP header and/or URL param, to send the sync login header, as suggested in forum post 9959d2d9d9be22d2. This is simpler. ... (check-in: 756ad2f2 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
03:16
Previous checkin should not have compiled - clean rebuild uncovered a stale dep. Re-map the fLoginCardMode to a bitmask so that it's possible to tell when multiple paths toggle that on, and which paths they were. ... (check-in: 780d3b2f user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
03:03
Doc touchups. ... (check-in: aa36afc5 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
02:41
Update the change log and sync.wiki for the login card additions. ... (check-in: edfa01d9 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
02:20
Doc improvements and internal API renaming for clarity. No functional changes. ... (check-in: 286110de user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
01:12
Remove some debug output. ... (check-in: d1b7be2f user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
2025-07-23
23:31
Remove some xfer login process debug output. ... (check-in: 815a84cb user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
20:56
Account for CGI-hosted fossil instances by sending the xfer login card as a URL argument. This is somewhat inelegant but works around their inability to read HTTP headers. This version is still more verbose than it needs to be, and requires more testing for compatibility with trunk fossil versions. ... (check-in: 439af934 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
17:39
Add the x-fossil-xfer-login header check in one additional place. With the help of the included debug output, the login problem seems to be caused by CGI (only) instances not reading the inbound HTTP headers. My attempts to make it do have, so far, only triggered HTTP 500 responses. (Edit: i'd forgotten that CGIs don't get headers. The headers are necessarily consumed by the web server to find the CGI script and populate its environment.) ... (check-in: 6c900645 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
2025-07-22
22:53
Add some debugging 'message' cards to help trace how the remote is handling the login. ... (check-in: 21be2978 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
18:11
Remove some dead code. Add some internal docs. Add a couple of const qualifiers to help me reason through the xfer payload buffer's lifetime. ... (check-in: 459d0cbb user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
17:52
Remove lots of debug output. Replace a couple of mprintf() with fossil_strdup() and a couple free() with fossil_free(). Milestone: libfossil has successfully logged in to this version of fossil. ... (check-in: 1078a123 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
15:53
Doc typo fixes. ... (check-in: 2250a684 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
15:51
Set g.syncInfo.bLoginCardHeader=1 if that inbound header is detected, rather than delaying it until the /xfer handling. Internal doc additions. ... (check-in: 4fc13c5c user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
15:41
Enable the HTTP login header if the xfer server-version is high enough, analog to the same check for the client-version. ... (check-in: bc3ad944 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
15:12
Get sync working from both login card forms and add a temporary --login-card-header CLI flag to force it to emit the HTTP header form of the card in output requests. If all is well, this checkin should be able to push to the canonical repo, despite their differences. ... (check-in: 042560df user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
02:32
The previous checkin left me unable to push because (of course) the remote trunk doesn't know how to use the login card header. This checkin disables, via a macro toggle, the use of that header on outbound sync requests. ... (check-in: cb42278d user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
02:16
For testing purposes only, unconditionally use the X-Fossil-Xfer-Login HTTP header for sync requests, rather than add it to the payload (which seems to work okay). This is primarily so that apples-to-apples comparisons can be made in libfossil's testing, and will be reverted (or applied conditionally) once the libfossil side is working. ... (check-in: ff942066 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
2025-07-21
23:45
Move the X-Fossil-Xfer-Login header check to the correct end of the connection. It is receiving these from libfossil tests but is failing to validate them, but that may well be a bug in that brand new downstream code. ... (check-in: b49c9b36 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
19:47
Update sync.wiki for [12cc5bbf227e3]. ... (check-in: a4c5a2a9 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
18:42
Replace an mprintf() with fossil_strdup(). ... (check-in: 73a2bd06 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
18:40
And this time compile before committing. ... (check-in: a62ffc19 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
18:38
Enable an /xfer login card to be delivered via the X-Fossil-Xfer-Login HTTP header, which is expected to be in the same format as the sync protocol's login card. The purpose of this is to simplify generation of the login card from non-fossil(1) clients, namely libfossil. This is untested until libfossil can generate such cards (it's just missing a bit of glue for that). ... (check-in: cfddded4 user: stephan tags: xfer-login-card)
17:16
Account for [638b7e094b899a] when building with --json, as reported in forum post 9acc3d0022. ... (check-in: c6f0d7ae user: stephan tags: trunk)
13:20
Remove FossilUserPerms::Query, as it's unused and its designated capabilities letter 'q' collides with ModTkt. It's been there since 2011-09-14 but went unnoticed until today when that struct was emacs-macro-reformatted into libfossil and triggered a duplicate case value for the letter 'q'. ... (check-in: 638b7e09 user: stephan tags: trunk)
2025-07-15
08:16
Move the mark->rid assignment down one block to avoid setting it if we're not going to use it for the 'b' and 'c' mark cases. ... (Leaf check-in: c2d25c42 user: stephan tags: git-parse-mark-fix)
08:13
A proposed, but also unproven, patch for the git export parse_mark() issues discussed in forum thread 906c248f2f. ... (check-in: 076c8def user: stephan tags: git-parse-mark-fix)
2025-07-14
17:31
Add mentions in changes.wiki and signing.md that SSH-signed artifacts are "ignored" by fossil versions prior to 2.26, as suggested in forum post 9348885dd6. ... (check-in: 3f8d014f user: stephan tags: trunk)
2025-07-05
11:35
On the 'user capabilities changed' notification, correct /setup_uedit?uid=... to /setup_uedit?id=... ... (check-in: c786b190 user: stephan tags: trunk)
2025-07-02
10:55
Add a confirmer wrapper around the forum post close/reopen button to help avoid accidental closing of posts via mis-clicks, per /chat discussion. ... (check-in: 751dbe28 user: stephan tags: trunk)
2025-06-27
10:11
Correct the starting clone_seqno in sync.wiki (1 instead of 0). ... (check-in: bbc4b702 user: stephan tags: trunk)
2025-06-25
10:25
Small additions and a broken link fix in sync.wiki. ... (check-in: 22191108 user: stephan tags: trunk)
2025-06-22
09:32
Resolve two 'db transaction never commits' warnings from /xfer in cases where it response to invalid inputs from the remote (found via libfossil testing). ... (check-in: bb860492 user: stephan tags: trunk)
2025-06-20
17:32
In wiki_submenu_to_read_wiki(), do not show the menu entry for branch/... pages. This is a proposed solution for forum post ff453de2f30791dd, in which the /wiki/foo link on /timeline?r=foo redirects back to /timeline?r=foo. Similar treatment may be needed for the other special wiki types. ... (check-in: f15b6344 user: stephan tags: trunk)
14:37
Add some link-tester docs and tweak the resize handler to get a slightly better fit. ... (check-in: aef937da user: stephan tags: trunk)
14:10
Remove an extraneous level of DOM element wrapper. Minor link-tester.json tweaks. ... (check-in: 9713297f user: stephan tags: trunk)
14:00
Minor doc update. ... (check-in: 91f92da0 user: stephan tags: trunk)
13:57
Add link-tester.json, a set of links for link-tester.html (format is described near the bottom of link-tester.js). Add a link to link-tester which opens the current page in a new tab. ... (check-in: 1acf7662 user: stephan tags: trunk)
12:48
Teach link-tester.js to be able to run when invoked from /doc/branchname/test. ... (check-in: 6ede23a1 user: stephan tags: trunk)
