Sites using LDAP groups will need to have the -site administrator visit every LDAP backed group through the web UI -(Admin > Groups), search for, and select the underlying LDAP group -from the directory server. - -This change was made to remove some of the guesswork when it comes -to setting up an LDAP enabled group, as well as to permit creating -new LDAP enabled groups completely from the web UI. It also removes -an ambiguous case when different parts of the same directory space -create identically named groups. - - -== New Features -* Check if the user has permission to upload changes -+ -The new READ +2 permission is required to upload a change to a -project, while READ +1 permits read but denies uploading a change. -The schema upgrade script automatically converts READ +1 to +2. - -* Use LDAP DN to match LDAP group to Gerrit group -* issue 297 Allow admins to search for and bind to LDAP groups -+ -As noted above, LDAP groups now use the full DN to match to their -Gerrit database counterpart, rather than just the common name. -Administrators may now create Gerrit groups and attach them to -any LDAP group, by performing a query on the LDAP directory for -matching groups and selecting a result. - -* issue 301 Try to prevent forgotten `git add` during replace -+ -Users are now stopped from performing a replace of a patch set if -they have not made a meaningful change (modify a file, or modify -the commit message). If only the commit message was modified, -a warning is printed, but the replace still occurs. - -* issue 126 Link to our issue tracker in the page footer -+ -The footer now includes a link to the Gerrit project's issue -tracker, so end-users can more easily report bugs or feature -requests back to the developers. - -* issue 300 Support SMTP over SSL/TLS -+ -Encrypted SMTP is now supported natively within Gerrit, see -link:http://gerrit.googlecode.com/svn/documentation/2.0/config-gerrit.html#sendemail.smtpEncryption[sendemail.smtpEncryption] - -== Bug Fixes -* issue 290 Fix invalid drop index in upgrade017_018_mysql -+ -Minor syntax error in SQL script. - -* Fixed ActiveDirectory LDAP group support. Allows recu... -* issue 307 Set proper LDAP defaults for Active Directory -+ -ActiveDirectory is now better supported out of the box. Defaults -for the LDAP configuration settings are automatically guessed at -startup based upon the type of server configured in ldap.server. -Recursive groups (group which is a member of a group) is also -now supported when using an ActiveDirectory server. Other LDAP -servers (e.g. OpenLDAP) probably don't support this. - -* "250-AUTH " will be returned if 'AUTH' response does ... -* Fix: Authentication fail when authTypes is empty -* Fix a typo that broke the gerrit build -+ -Outgoing SMTP sometimes failed to authenticate against a -SMTP server due to slightly incorrect handling of the AUTH -advertisement. - -* Correct scp commands in documentation to include -p -+ -Our documentation of how to copy the commit-msg hook down via -scp did not include the -p option, which is necessary to make -the client preserve the executable flag on the hook script. - -* issue 291 Suggest latin1 charset for MySQL databases -+ -Documentation was updated to encourage using latin1 for MySQL -as MySQL fails with key too long errors during schema creation -when the database is using the UTF-8 character set. - -* issue 294 Fix OpenID self registration dialog -+ -OpenID 'Register' hyperlink was broken due to the dialog having -no content added to it before display. This bug was fixed by -using the proper OpenID login dialog. - -* issue 309 Clear message on publish comments screen after submit... -+ -The publish comments button preserved your last comment, making -it easy for a user to accidentally publish the same message on -the same change twice. The message is now cleared after it has -been successfully sent. - -* issue 299 Remove the branches table from the database -* Display current branch SHA-1 in Branches tab -* issue 299 Display not-yet-born HEAD branch in Branches tab -+ -The not-yet-born branch in an empty project is now shown in the -Branches tab. (This is based on the value of the HEAD symbolic -reference within the project's Git repository.) -The branches table was removed from the database. We now fully -rely upon the Git repository to determine which branches exist -and thus permit changes to be uploaded to. - -* issue 296 Make help more friendly over SSH -+ -`ssh -p 29418 localhost help` is now more user friendly. - -* Don't request registration if the account exists -* issue 38 Fix OpenID delegate authentication -+ -OpenID authentication was sometimes asking providers for -registation data when we already had it on hand, fixed. -OpenID delegate identities were being stored rather than claimed -identities when the claimed identity is just a delegate to the -delegate provider. We now store both in the account. - -== Fixes in 2.0.24.1 -* Fix unused import in OpenIdServiceImpl -* dev-readme: Fix formatting of initdb command -+ -Minor documentation/code fixes with no impact on execution. - -* Fix LDAP account lookup when user not in group -+ -Fixes a NullPointerException when a user is not in any group -and the underlying LDAP server is ActiveDirectory. - -* issue 315 Correct sendemail.smtppass -+ -Fixes sendemail configuration to use the documented smtppass -variable and not the undocumented smtpuserpass variable. - -== Fixes in 2.0.24.2 -* Fix CreateSchema to create Administrators group -* Fix CreateSchema to set type of Registered Users group -* Default AccountGroup instances to type INTERNAL -* Document the various AccountGroup.Type states better -+ -CreateSchema was broken in 2.0.24 and 2.0.24.1 due to the default -groups being misconfigured during insertion.
