[PATCH v3 0/3] limit the size of the packs we receive

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Goal
~~~~

In https://public-inbox.org/git/20150612182045.GA23698%40peff.net/,
Peff sent a patch that is used by GitHub to abort `git receive-pack`
when the size of the pack we receive is bigger than a configured
limit.

GitLab is interested in using the same approach and in standardizing
the error messages the user could get back.

Comments
~~~~~~~~

I kept Peff as the author of the patches that are made mostly from his
patch, but I added my Signed-off-by to them.

Changes from previous v2 version
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All these changes have been suggested by Junio and are in patch 3/3,
the other 2 patches are the same as v2:

  - renamed "receive.maxsize" to "receive.maxInputSize",
  - improved commit message,
  - renamed test script from "t5546-push-limits.sh" to
    "t5546-receive-limits.sh",
  - improved the tests in the last patch by adding a
    test_pack_input_limit() function and deleting the destination repo
    at the beginning of this function.
