What's missing:
- Match patch VCS, origin repo VCS and target repo VCS
- Hook into postPersonInboxR
- If only origin is provided, generate patches / otherwise somehow remember the
commits proposed
RepoSourceR, for a repo that doesn't have a loom, lists looms that want to
serve that repo with buttons for bidirectionally linking the repo to a loom
Once linked, the repo navbar has a Patches/MRs link pointing to the LoomClothsR
of the linked Loom
Giving access now starts with an Invite activity, followed by Accept from the
Invite's recipient. Finally, the resource sends a Grant, which is the actual
OCap.
I was going to link the matching Accept tables to them, but then switched to
the Invite-Accept-Grant model and going to implement it in the next patches. So
I'm committing these new tables just in case I decide to revert to the current
model.
Previously there was just CollabTopicAccept, which worked only for local topics
but pretended to apply to both, due to directly pointing to Collab, thus
possible to insert rows even if there's a CollabTopicRemote.
The new situation is a new CollabTopicLocal table to which the local topic
things point, thus keeping the local and remote data separate and difficult to
confuse.
This is such a huge patch, it's probably impossible to tell what it does by
looking at the code. One thing is clear: It changes *everything* :P so here's
an overview:
- There are now 5 types of actors, each having its own top-level route
- So projects, repos, etc. are no longer "under" sharers
- Actor routes are now based on their KeyHashid, there are no "idents" anymore,
i.e. URLs look random and don't contain user or repo names
- No sharers anymore; people and groups are distinct entities not sharing a
common namespace or anything like that
- Project has been renamed to Deck and it simply means a ticket tracker; repos
are no longer "under" projects
- In addition to Person, Group, Repo and Deck, there's a new actor type Loom,
which is a patch tracker; i.e. Repo actors don't manage MRs anymore
- All C2S and S2S is temporarily disabled, because huge changes to the whole
code are required and I'll do them gradually in the next patches
- Since form-based actions are implemented using C2S, they're disabled as well,
so Vervis is now essentially read-only
- Some views have been temporarily removed, e.g. repo history and commit view
- A huge set of DB migrations has been added to adapt the DB to these changes;
I haven't tested them yet on a read DB so there may be errors there; I'll fix
them in the next patches if I find any (probably going to test on the main
instance where Vervis itself is hosted...)
- Some modules got tech upgrades, e.g. LocalActor became a higher-kinded type
and a similar pattern is probably relevant for several other types
- There's an 'Actor' entity in the DB schema now, and all 5 actor types use it
for common things like inbox and outbox
- Although inbox and outbox are used only by Actor, so essentially could be
removed, I haven't removed them; that's because I wonder if at some point
users can have a tree of inboxes much like in email; I don't have an excuse
for Outbox, but anyway, leaving them as is for now
- Workflows, roles and collaborators are partially removed/unused until I
figure out a sane federated way to provide these features
- Since repo routes don't contain a "sharer" anymore, SSH URIs are now simpler,
they already look like user@host/repo regardless of who "controls" that repo
