RhodeCode Enterprise 4.18.3 Release Notes#
Release Date#
2020-03-24
New Features#
LDAP: added nested user groups sync which was planned in 4.18.X but didn’t make it to the release. New option for sync is available in the LDAP configuration.
General#
API: added branch permissions functions.
Pull requests: added creating indicator to let users know they should wait until PR is creating.
Pull requests: allow super-admins to force change state of locked PRs.
Users/User groups: in edit mode we now show the actual name of what we’re editing.
SSH: allow generation of legacy SSH keys for older systems and Windows users.
File store: don’t response with cookie data on file-store download response.
File store: use our own logic for setting content-type. This solves a problem when previously used resolver set different content-type+content-encoding which is an incorrect behaviour.
My Account: show info about password usage for external accounts e.g github/google etc We now recommend using auth-tokens instead of actual passwords.
Repositories: in description field we now show mention of metatags only if they are enabled.
Security#
Remote sync: don’t expose credentials in displayed URLs. Remote links url had visible credentials displayed in the link. This was used for web-view and not needed anymore.
Performance#
Full text search: significantly improved GIT commit indexing performance by reducing number of calls to the vcsserver.
Fixes#
Mercurial: fixed cases of lookup of branches that are exactly 20 character long.
SVN: allow legacy (pre SVN 1.7) extraction of post commit data.
GIT: use non-unicode author extraction as it’s returned as bytes from backend, and we can get an unicode errors while there’s some non-ascii characters.
GIT: use safe configparser for git submodules to prevent from errors on submodules with % sign.
System info: fixed UI problem with new version update info screen.
Upgrade notes#
Scheduled release addressing problems in 4.18.X releases.
