        About
        -----
        
        **Kallithea** is a fast and powerful management tool for Mercurial_ and Git_
        with a built-in push/pull server, full text search and code-review. It works on
        http/https and has a built in permission/authentication system with the ability
        to authenticate via LDAP or ActiveDirectory. Kallithea also provides simple API
        so it's easy to integrate with existing external systems.
        
        Kallithea is similar in some respects to GitHub_ or Bitbucket_, however
        Kallithea can be run as standalone hosted application on your own server. It is
        open-source donationware and focuses more on providing a customised,
        self-administered interface for Mercurial_ and Git_ repositories. Kallithea
        works on Unix-like systems and Windows, and is powered by the vcs_ library
        created by Łukasz Balcerzak and Marcin Kuźmiński to uniformly handle multiple
        version control systems.
        
        Kallithea was forked from RhodeCode in July 2014 and has been heavily modified.
        
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        Kallithea requires Python_ 2.x and it is recommended to install it in a
        virtualenv_. Official releases of Kallithea can be installed with::
        
            pip install kallithea
        
        The development repository is kept very stable and used in production by the
        developers -- you can do the same.
        
        Please visit https://docs.kallithea-scm.org/en/latest/installation.html for
        more details.
        
        There is also an experimental `Puppet module`_ for installing and setting up
        Kallithea. Currently, only basic functionality is provided, but it is still
        enough to get up and running quickly, especially for people without Python
        background. See
        https://docs.kallithea-scm.org/en/latest/installation_puppet.html for further
        information.

        https://bitbucket.org/conservancy/kallithea.
        
        
        Kallithea features
        ------------------
        
        - Has its own middleware to handle Mercurial_ and Git_ protocol requests. Each
          request is authenticated and logged together with IP address.
        - Built for speed and performance. You can make multiple pulls/pushes
          simultaneously. Proven to work with thousands of repositories and users.
        - Supports http/https, LDAP, AD, proxy-pass authentication.
        - Full permissions (private/read/write/admin) together with IP restrictions for
          each repository, additional explicit forking, repositories group and
          repository creation permissions.
        - User groups for easier permission management.
        - Repository groups let you group repos and manage them easier. They come with
          permission delegation features, so you can delegate groups management.
        - Users can fork other users repos, and compare them at any time.
        - Built-in versioned paste functionality (Gist) for sharing code snippets.
        - Integrates easily with other systems, with custom created mappers you can
          connect it to almost any issue tracker, and with a JSON-RPC API you can make
          much more.
        - Built-in commit API lets you add, edit and commit files right from Kallithea
          web interface using simple editor or upload binary files using simple form.
        - Powerful pull request driven review system with inline commenting, changeset
          statuses, and notification system.
        - Importing and syncing repositories from remote locations for Git_, Mercurial_
          and Subversion.
        - Mako templates let you customize the look and feel of the application.
        - Beautiful diffs, annotations and source code browsing all colored by
          pygments. Raw diffs are made in Git-diff format for both VCS systems,
          including Git_ binary-patches.
        - Mercurial_ and Git_ DAG graphs and Flot-powered graphs with zooming and
          statistics to track activity for repositories.
        - Admin interface with user/permission management. Admin activity journal, logs
          pulls, pushes, forks, registrations and other actions made by all users.
        - Server side forks. It is possible to fork a project and modify it freely
          without breaking the main repository.
        - reST and Markdown README support for repositories.
        - Full text search powered by Whoosh on the source files, commit messages, and
          file names. Built-in indexing daemons, with optional incremental index build
          (no external search servers required all in one application).
        - Setup project descriptions/tags and info inside built in DB for easy,
          non-filesystem operations.
        - Intelligent cache with invalidation after push or project change, provides
          high performance and always up to date data.
        - RSS/Atom feeds, Gravatar support, downloadable sources as zip/tar/gz.
        - Optional async tasks for speed and performance using Celery_.
        - Backup scripts can do backup of whole app and send it over scp to desired
          location.
        - Based on Pylons, SQLAlchemy, SQLite, Whoosh, vcs.
        
        
        License
        -------
        
        **Kallithea** is released under the GPLv3 license. Kallithea is a `Software
        Freedom Conservancy`_ project and thus controlled by a non-profit organization.
        No commercial entity can take ownership of the project and change the
        direction.
        
        Kallithea started out as an effort to make sure the existing GPLv3 codebase
        would stay available under a legal license. Kallithea thus has to stay GPLv3
        compatible ... but we are also happy it is GPLv3 and happy to keep it that way.
        A different license (such as AGPL) could perhaps help attract a different
        community with a different mix of Free Software people and companies but we are
        happy with the current focus.

           .. note::
        
               Please try to read the documentation before posting any issues,
               especially the **troubleshooting section**
        
        
        Online documentation
        --------------------
        
        Online documentation for the current version of Kallithea is available at
        https://pythonhosted.org/Kallithea/. Documentation for the current development
        version can be found on https://docs.kallithea-scm.org/.
        
        You can also build the documentation locally: go to ``docs/`` and run::
        
           make html
        
        .. note:: You need to have Sphinx_ installed to build the
                  documentation. If you don't have Sphinx_ installed you can
                  install it via the command: ``pip install sphinx`` .
        
        
        Converting from RhodeCode
        -------------------------
        
        Currently, you have two options for working with an existing RhodeCode
        database:
        
        - keep the database unconverted (intended for testing and evaluation)
        - convert the database in a one-time step
        
        Maintaining interoperability
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Interoperability with RhodeCode 2.2.X installations is provided so you don't
        have to immediately commit to switching to Kallithea. This option will most
        likely go away once the two projects have diverged significantly.
        
        To run Kallithea on a RhodeCode database, run::
        
           echo "BRAND = 'rhodecode'" > kallithea/brand.py
        
        This location will depend on where you installed Kallithea. If you installed
        via::
        
           python2 setup.py install
        
        then you will find this location at
        ``$VIRTUAL_ENV/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Kallithea-0.1-py2.7.egg/kallithea``.
        
        One-time conversion
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Alternatively, if you would like to convert the database for good, you can use
        a helper script provided by Kallithea. This script will operate directly on the
        database, using the database string you can find in your ``production.ini`` (or
        ``development.ini``) file. For example, if using SQLite::
        
           cd /path/to/kallithea
           cp /path/to/rhodecode/rhodecode.db kallithea.db
           pip install sqlalchemy-migrate
           python2 kallithea/bin/rebranddb.py sqlite:///kallithea.db
        
        .. Note::
        
           If you started out using the branding interoperability approach mentioned
           above, watch out for stray brand.pyc after removing brand.py.
        
        Git hooks
        ~~~~~~~~~
        
        After switching to Kallithea, it will be necessary to update the Git_ hooks in
        your repositories. If not, the Git_ hooks from RhodeCode will still be called,
        which will cause ``git push`` to fail every time.
        
        If you do not have any custom Git_ hooks deployed, perform the following steps
        (this may take some time depending on the number and size of repositories you
        have):
        
        1. Log-in as an administrator.
        
        2. Open page *Admin > Settings > Remap and Rescan*.
        
        3. Turn on the option **Install Git Hooks**.
        
        4. Turn on the option **Overwrite existing Git hooks**.
        
        5. Click on the button **Rescan Repositories**.
        
        If you do have custom hooks, you will need to merge those changes manually. In
        order to get sample hooks from Kallithea, the easiest way is to create a new Git_
        repository, and have a look at the hooks deployed there.
