I'm trying to get ACL working in Mercurial. Now, I'm not positive that it will work at all because I'm using hg 1.5.1. (I'm working on figuring out who I have to talk to to get someone to upgrade that for me)
Assuming that 1.5.1 will support it, my hgrc file looks like:
[extensions]
acl =
[hooks]
# Use this if you want to check access restrictions at commit time
pretxncommit = python:hgext.acl.hook
# Use this if you want to check access restrictions for pull, push,
# bundle and serve.
pretxnchangegroup = python:hgext.acl.hook
[acl]
# Check whether the source of incoming changes is in this list where
# "serve" == ssh or http, and "push", "pull" and "bundle" are the
# corresponding hg commands.
sources = serve push pull
etc
I'm getting:
error: pretxnchangegroup hook failed: acl: access denied for changeset 242c80d5c009
transaction abort!
rollback completed
abort: acl: access denied for changeset 242c80d5c009
Currently, I'm just doing this on a tiny non-server repo, but eventually this will be on a normal large HTTPS server...
thanks
EDIT: [ changed hgrc file] Ok, now I seem to be 1/2 there. When I try to push on a branch I'm not allowed to, I get:
error: pretxnchangegroup.acl hook failed: acl: user "brian_postow" not allowed on branch "branch-b" (changeset "597eddef10a1")
transaction abort!
rollback completed
abort: acl: user "brian_postow" not allowed on branch "branch-b" (changeset "597eddef10a1")
Which looks correct (maybe?) However, when I push from a branch that I AM allowed to, I get:
error: pretxnchangegroup.acl hook failed: acl: access denied for changeset 242c80d5c009
transaction abort!
rollback completed
abort: acl: access denied for changeset 242c80d5c009
so, I still don't appear to be able to push... Any ideas?
Actually I solved this problem. The problem was that I had [acl allow] but nothing in it... I thought that branches.allow would supercede allow, but I guess not.
thanks.!
