test-lfs-test-server: add a testcase for `hg serve`
I haven't figured out yet how to make the authentication checks work for a
specific list of users, so the 'web.allow-push' list is wildcarded. (It appears
that the client doesn't react to a 401 by sending authentication data, which may
be caused in part by not having all of the headers in httpbasicauthhandler's
http_error_auth_reqed(), compared to a run of test-http.t. But in any case, we
should probably have a separate set of tests for various authentication
scenarios. As it is, without the wildcard, no push access is granted.)
There are several deviations from the `lfs-test-server` case:
- `hg serve` emits a Server header. I think Gregory indicated that this isn't
easily suppressed.
- `hg serve` names the "basic" transfer handler in the Batch API response. Not
having to specify it was for backwards compatability, so this seems like the
right thing to do. (`lfs-test-server` doesn't name it, whether it was
explicitly requested by the client or not.)
- PUT status for a newly created file is 201, per RFC-2616 [1]. The Basic
Transfer API [2] shows an example upload transcript with a 200 response. It
doesn't make much sense to re-upload a file (unless it is corrupt) in an
example, but I wouldn't be surprised if some other implementations also
expect 200 because of this. But the RFC says MUST use 201 for creation.
- The Content-Type for the file transfers is "application/octet-stream", like
the sample transcript (though I don't see it explicitly called out in the
text elsewhere). Using "text/plain" seems clearly wrong.
- `lfs-test-server` isn't removing the action property and sending back an
error code like the spec calls out when a file is missing or corrupt. Doing
so on the `hg serve` side reveals a bug in our client code when handling the
response- it indicates the remote file is missing instead of corrupt around
line 452.
I'll probably glob over the Content-Length differences once this settles down.
Prior to the recent hgweb refactoring, the Batch API response was using chunked
encodings instead.
Back to the RFC, I have no idea if the python framework handles the "MUST NOT
ignore any Content-* (e.g. Content-Range) headers that it does not understand or
implement and MUST return a 501" for a PUT request.

push: use "repo['.']" instead of old form "repo['']"
Note that this does not conflict with the commit message of my
previous patch: I found this after writing the previous patch
(besides, I very easily forget things).

context: change default changeid from old form '' to '.'
I don't think I've seen repo[''] in the codebase at least in the last
two years.

lfs: add basic routing for the server side wire protocol processing
The recent hgweb refactoring yielded a clean point to wrap a function that could
handle this, so I moved the routing for this out of the core. While not an hg
wire protocol, this seems logically close enough. For now, these handlers do
nothing other than check permissions.
The protocol requires support for PUT requests, so that has been added to the
core, and funnels into the same handler as GET and POST. The permission
checking code was assuming that anything not checking 'pull' or None ops should
be using POST. But that breaks the upload check if it checks 'push'. So I
invented a new 'upload' permission, and used it to avoid the mandate to POST. A
function wrap point could be added, but security code should probably stay
grouped together. Given that anything not 'pull' or None was requiring POST,
the comment on hgweb.common.permhooks is probably wrong- there is no 'read'.
The rationale for the URIs is that the spec for the Batch API[1] defines the URL
as the LFS server url + '/objects/batch'. The default git URLs are:
Git remote: https://git-server.com/foo/bar
LFS server: https://git-server.com/foo/bar.git/info/lfs
Batch API: https://git-server.com/foo/bar.git/info/lfs/objects/batch
'.git/' seems like it's not something a user would normally track. If we adhere
to how git defines the URLs, then the hg-git extension should be able to talk to
a git based server without any additional work.
The URI for the transfer requests starts with '.hg/' to ensure that there are no
conflicts with tracked files. Since these are handed out by the Batch API, we
can change this at any point in the future. (Specifically, it might be a good
idea to use something under the proposed /api/ namespace.) In any case, no
files are stored at these locations in the repository directory.
I started a new module for this because it seems like a good idea to keep all of
the security sensitive server side code together. There's also an issue with
`hg verify` in that it will want to download *all* blobs in order to run.
Sadly, there's no way in the protocol to ask the server to verify the content of
a blob it may have. (The verify action is for storing files on a 3rd party
server, and then informing the LFS server when that completes.) So we may end
up implementing a custom transfer adapter that simply indicates if the blobs are
valid, and fall back to basic transfers for non-hg servers. In other words,
this code is likely to get bigger before this is made non-experimental.

test-lfs: drop trailing ', ' item separators from debug JSON output
The trailing space looks weird when conditionalizing the line. The commas
shouldn't be necessary because of the indenting. The `lfs-test-server` isn't
sending all of the same items (notably, the "transfer" attribute is missing), so
having the commas means more lines need to be conditionalized.

lfs: add a blob verification method to the local store
A corrupt blob can be signaled through the Batch API response, without actually
transferring the file. A true/false indicator is slightly easier than
immediately catching an exception.
