Update repository hosting documentation for all the issues users have hit
Summary: Ref T4151. Addresses these issues: - Mentions `diffusion.ssh-user`. - Mentions `/etc/shadow` and `!!`. - Mentions `/etc/passwd` and shell. - Mentions `sshd -d -d -d`. - Mentions `Defaults requiretty`. - Adds `AllowUsers` to default configuration. - Mentions `sudo -E ...` as a troubleshooting step. - Mentions multiple VCS binaries. - Fixes `sshd` paths to be absolute. - Fixes example path in `sshd_config` template. - Mentions `GIT_CURL_VERBOSE`. - Walks users through cloning. - Adds documentation for custom hooks. - Mentions that only `daemon-user` interacts with repositories. - Added general troubleshooting guide. I didn't fix these: - Weird one-time issue with `sudoers.d/`. We tell you to edit `/etc/sudoers` directly anyway. - Insane `#includedir` magic, as above. - Confusion around `vcs-user` for HTTP, since I think this is fairly clear. - Confusion around parent directory permissions -- not sure about this one, `sshd` normally runs as root? I added an `ssh-shell` as a safer alternative to `/bin/sh`. I need to test this a bit more. Test Plan: - Read documentation. - Will test `ssh-shell`.

@title Diffusion User Guide: Commit Hooks
|

@group userguide
|
||||
|
||||
Guide to commit hooks in hosted repositories.
|
||||
|
||||
= Overview =
|
||||
|
||||
Phabricator installs pre-receive/pre-commit hooks in hosted repositories
|
||||
automatically. They enforce a few rules automatically (like preventing
|
||||
dangerous changes unless a repository is configured to allow them). They can
|
||||
also enforce more complex rules via Herald, using the "Commit Hook:
|
||||
Branches/Tags/Bookmarks" and "Commit Hook: Commit Content" rule types.
|
||||
|
||||
Herald rules are flexible, and can express many of the most common hooks that
|
||||
are often installed on repositories (like protecting branches, restricting
|
||||
access to repositories, and requiring review).
|
||||
|
||||
However, if Herald isn't powerful enough to enforce everything you want to
|
||||
check, you can install additional custom hooks. These work mostly like normal
|
||||
hooks, but with a few differences.
|
||||
|
||||
= Installing Custom Hooks =
|
||||
|
||||
With hosted repositories, you can install hooks by dropping them into the
|
||||
relevant directory of the repository on disk:
|
||||
|
||||
- **SVN** Put hooks in `hooks/pre-commit-phabricator.d/`.
|
||||
- **Git** Put hooks in `hooks/pre-receive-phabricator.d/`.
|
||||
- **Mercurial** Phabricator does not currently support custom hooks in
|
||||
Mercurial.
|
||||
|
||||
These hooks act like normal `pre-commit` or `pre-receive` hooks:
|
||||
|
||||
- Executables in these directories will be run one at a time, in alphabetical
|
||||
order.
|
||||
- They'll be passed the arguments and environment that normal hooks are
|
||||
passed.
|
||||
- They should emit output and return codes like normal hooks do.
|
||||
- These hooks will run only after all the Herald rules have passed and
|
||||
Phabricator is otherwise ready to accept the commit or push.
|
||||
|
||||
These additional variables will be available in the environment, in addition
|
||||
to the variables the VCS normally provides:
|
||||
|
||||
- `PHABRICATOR_REPOSITORY` The callsign of the repository the hook is
|
||||
executing for.
|
||||
- `PHABRICATOR_USER` The Phabricator username that the session is
|
||||
authenticated under.
|
||||
- `PHABRICATOR_REMOTE_ADDRESS` The connection's remote address (that is,
|
||||
the IP address of whoever is pushing or committing).
|
||||
- `PHABRICATOR_REMOTE_PROTOCOL` The protocol the connection is using (for
|
||||
example, "ssh" or "http").

|

|

- Open `/etc/shadow` and find the line for the `vcs-user` account.

- The second field (which is the password field) must not be set to

= Cloning a Repository =
|
||||
|
||||
If you've already set up a hosted repository, you can try cloning it now. To
|
||||
do this, browse to the repository's main screen in Diffusion. You should see
|
||||
clone commands at the top of the page.
|
||||
|
||||
To clone the repository, just run the appropriate command.
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't see the commands or running them doesn't work, see below for tips
|
||||
on troubleshooting.
|
||||
|
||||
= Troubleshooting HTTP =
|
||||
|
||||
Some general tips for troubleshooting problems with HTTP:
|
||||
|
||||
- Make sure `diffusion.allow-http-auth` is enabled in your Phabricator config.
|
||||
- Make sure HTTP serving is enabled for the repository you're trying to clone.
|
||||
You can find this in "Edit Repository" -> "Hosting".
|
||||
- Make sure you've configured a VCS password. This is separate from your main
|
||||
account password. You can configure this in "Settings" -> "VCS Password".
|
||||
- Make sure the main repository screen in Diffusion shows a clone/checkout
|
||||
command for HTTP. If it doesn't, something above isn't set up correctly:
|
||||
double-check your configuration. You should see a `svn checkout http://...`,
|
||||
`git clone http://...` or `hg clone http://...` command. Run that command
|
||||
verbatim to clone the repository.
|
||||
|
||||
If you're using Git, using `GIT_CURL_VERBOSE` may help assess login failures.
|
||||
To do so, specify it on the command line before the `git clone` command, like
|
||||
this:
|
||||
|
||||
$ GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1 git clone ...
|
||||
|
||||
This will make `git` print out a lot more information. Particularly, the line
|
||||
with the HTTP response is likely to be useful:
|
||||
|
||||
< HTTP/1.1 403 Invalid credentials.
|
||||
|
||||
In many cases, this can give you more information about what's wrong.
|
||||
|
||||
= Troubleshooting SSH =
|
||||
|
||||
Some general tips for troubleshooting problems with SSH:
|
||||
|
||||
- Check that you've configured `diffusion.ssh-user`.
|
||||
- Check that you've configured `phd.user`.
|
||||
- Make sure SSH serving is enabled for the repository you're trying to clone.
|
||||
You can find this in "Edit Repository" -> "Hosting".
|
||||
- Make sure you've added an SSH public key to your account. You can do this
|
||||
in "Settings" -> "SSH Keys".
|
||||
- Make sure the main repository screen in Diffusion shows a clone/checkout
|
||||
command for SSH. If it doesn't, something above isn't set up correctly.
|
||||
You should see an `svn checkout svn+ssh://...`, `git clone ssh://...` or
|
||||
`hg clone ssh://...` command. Run that command verbatim to clone the
|
||||
repository.
|
||||
|
||||
To troubleshoot SSH setup: connect to the server with `ssh`, without running
|
||||
a command. You may need to use the `-T` flag. You should see a message like
|
||||
this one:
|
||||
|
||||
$ ssh -T dweller@secure.phabricator.com
|
||||
phabricator-ssh-exec: Welcome to Phabricator.
|
||||
|
||||
You are logged in as alincoln.
|
||||
|
||||
You haven't specified a command to run. This means you're requesting an
|
||||
interactive shell, but Phabricator does not provide an interactive shell over
|
||||
SSH.
|
||||
|
||||
Usually, you should run a command like `git clone` or `hg push` rather than
|
||||
connecting directly with SSH.
|
||||
|
||||
Supported commands are: conduit, git-receive-pack, git-upload-pack, hg,
|
||||
svnserve.
|
||||
|
||||
If you see this message, all your SSH stuff is configured correctly. **If you
|
||||
get a login shell instead, you've missed some major setup step: review the
|
||||
documentation above.** If you get some other sort of error, double check these
|
||||
settings:
|
||||
|
||||
- You're connecting as the `vcs-user`.
|
||||
- The `vcs-user` has `NP` in `/etc/shadow`.
|
||||
- The `vcs-user` has `/bin/sh` or some other valid shell in `/etc/passwd`.
|
||||
- Your SSH key is correct, and you've added it to Phabricator in the Settings
|
||||
panel.
|
||||
|
||||
If you can get this far, but can't execute VCS commands like `git clone`, there
|
||||
is probably an issue with your `sudoers` configuration. Check:
|
||||
|
||||
- Your `sudoers` file is set up as instructed above.
|
||||
- You've commented out `Defaults requiretty` in `sudoers`.
|
||||
- You don't have multiple copies of the VCS binaries (like `git-upload-pack`)
|
||||
on your system. You may have granted sudo access to one, while the VCS user
|
||||
is trying to run a different one.
|
||||
- You've configured `phd.user`.
|
||||
- The `phd.user` has read and write access to the repositories.
|
||||
|
||||
It may also be helpful to run `sshd` in debug mode:
|
||||
|
||||
$ /path/to/sshd -d -d -d -f /path/to/sshd_config.phabricator
|
||||
|
||||
This will run it in the foreground and emit a large amount of debugging
|
||||
information.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, you can usually test that `sudoers` is configured correctly by
|
||||
doing something like this:
|
||||
|
||||
$ su vcs-user
|
||||
$ sudo -E -n -u daemon-user -- /path/to/some/vcs-binary --help
|
||||
|
||||
That will try to run the binary via `sudo` in a manner similar to the way that
|
||||
Phabricator will run it. This can give you better error messages about issues
|
||||
with `sudoers` configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
= Miscellaneous Troubleshooting =
|
||||
|
||||
- If you're getting an error about `svnlook` not being found, add the path
|
||||
where `svnlook` is located to the Phabricator configuration
|
||||
`environment.append-paths` (even if it already appears in PATH). This issue
|
||||
is caused by SVN wiping the environment (including PATH) when invoking
|
||||
commit hooks.
|
||||
|
||||
= Next Steps =
|
||||
|
||||
Once hosted repositories are set up:
|
||||
|
||||
- learn about commit hooks with @{Diffusion User Guide: Commit Hooks}.
