This may seem like a dumb idea, but is there anyway to serve a mercurial repository over http without any of the webinterface features bundled in hgweb.cgi .
I would like users to be able to clone/push the repository over http:// but I do not want them to be able to view the repositories or files through a web interface.
Static HTTP is an option, but the official mercurial docs claim that this is very slow.
If this is not trivial, is anyone aware of a example code that serves an hg repository over http, without any support for a browser interface preferrably?
Thanks in advance.
I did a quick check of the hgweb files and found this:
Find the hgweb/webcommands.py file of your mercurial installation, and open it in an editor. Change the following code at the top of the file:
__all__ = [
'log', 'rawfile', 'file', 'changelog', 'shortlog', 'changeset', 'rev',
'manifest', 'tags', 'bookmarks', 'branches', 'summary', 'filediff', 'diff',
'annotate', 'filelog', 'archive', 'static', 'graph', 'help',
]
to this:
__all__ = [
]
This disables all web commands; you can still view the list of repos, but not any more infos about them.
I did check hg clone and hg pull, but not hg push.
