Authentication for Mercurial activity¶

Requirements¶

1. Clone/pull from repo for public project: Any user, no authentication required
2. Clone/pull from repo for private project: Permitted users only
3. Push to repo for public project: Permitted users only
4. Push to repo for private project: Permitted users only

What constitutes a permitted user?

• A user who is a member of the project?
• A user who is identified in the [web] section of the repository?
• A user who is both a member and identified in the [web] section?
• A user who is either a member or identified in the [web] section?
• A user who is identified in the [web] section, if any, or is a member if there is no such section?

Techniques¶

• Apache authentication against Redmine user database using mod_auth_mysql (no support for LDAP-authenticated users?)
• Apache authentication against Redmine users using the mod_perl module Redmine.pm or a variant thereof (http://redmine.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/extra/svn/Redmine.pm)?
