auth: only use X- headers instead of REMOTE_ADDR if explicitly told so in remote_addr_header
Before, X-Forwarded-For (and others) headers would *always* be trusted blindly,
also in setups without a proxy server. It would thus in some cases be
possible for users to fake their IP, and thus potentially be possible to bypass
IP restrictions configured in Kallithea.
Fixed by making it configurable which WSGI environment variable to use for the
remote address. Users can configure remote_addr_header to for example
HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR instead of using the default REMOTE_ADDR.
This change is a bit similar to what is going on in the https_fixup middleware,
but is doing a bit more of what for example is happening in similar code in
werkzeug/middleware/proxy_fix.py .

Troubleshooting
===============
:Q: **Missing static files?**
:A: Make sure either to set the ``static_files = true`` in the .ini file or
double check the root path for your http setup. It should point to
for example:
``/home/my-virtual-python/lib/python3.7/site-packages/kallithea/public``
|
:Q: **Can't install celery/rabbitmq?**
:A: Don't worry. Kallithea works without them, too. No extra setup is required.
Try out the great Celery docs for further help.
|
:Q: **Long lasting push timeouts?**
:A: Make sure you set a longer timeout in your proxy/fcgi settings. Timeouts
are caused by the http server and not Kallithea.
|
:Q: **Large pushes timeouts?**
:A: Make sure you set a proper ``max_body_size`` for the http server. Very often
Apache, Nginx, or other http servers kill the connection due to to large
body.
|
:Q: **Apache doesn't pass basicAuth on pull/push?**
:A: Make sure you added ``WSGIPassAuthorization true``.
|
:Q: **Git fails on push/pull?**
:A: Make sure you're using a WSGI http server that can handle chunked encoding
such as ``waitress`` or ``gunicorn``.
|
:Q: **How can I use hooks in Kallithea?**
:A: If using Mercurial, use *Admin > Settings > Hooks* to install
global hooks. Inside the hooks, you can use the current working directory to
control different behaviour for different repositories.
If using Git, install the hooks manually in each repository, for example by
creating a file ``gitrepo/hooks/pre-receive``.
Note that Kallithea uses the ``post-receive`` hook internally.
Kallithea will not work properly if another post-receive hook is installed instead.
You might also accidentally overwrite your own post-receive hook with the Kallithea hook.
Instead, put your post-receive hook in ``post-receive-custom``, and the Kallithea hook will invoke it.
You can also use Kallithea-extensions to connect to callback hooks,
for both Git and Mercurial.
|
:Q: **Kallithea is slow for me, how can I make it faster?**
:A: See the :ref:`performance` section.
|
:Q: **UnicodeDecodeError on Apache mod_wsgi**
:A: Please read: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/deployment/wsgi/modwsgi/#if-you-get-a-unicodeencodeerror.
|
:Q: **Requests hanging on Windows**
:A: Please try out with disabled Antivirus software, there are some known problems with Eset Antivirus. Make sure
you have installed the latest Windows patches (especially KB2789397).
