Gitweb extracts content from the Git log and makes it accessible
over HTTP. As a result, e-mail addresses found in commits are
exposed to web crawlers and they may not respect robots.txt.
This can result in unsolicited messages.
Introduce an 'email-privacy' feature which redacts e-mail addresses
from the generated HTML content. Specifically, obscure addresses
retrieved from the the author/committer and comment sections of the
Git log. The feature is off by default.
This feature does not prevent someone from downloading the
unredacted commit log, e.g., by cloning the repository, and
extracting information from it. It aims to hinder the low-
effort, bulk collection of e-mail addresses by web crawlers.

This paragraph uses a lot of +pluses+ to render text as monospace. That
works fine with AsciiDoc (8.6.10), and almost fine with Asciidoctor
(1.5.5), which renders the third of these literally ("+$projname+"). The
reason seems to be that Asciidoctor trips on the lone plus a bit
earlier, even though it is escaped.
Switch +$projname+ to `$projname`, and change the next, similar instance
too (+$projname/+), because otherwise, we'd trip on /that one/ instead.
If we would stop there, we would now start falling over on the escaped
plus ('\+') mentioned earlier, rendering /it/ literally. So change that
too...
In other words, unescape the lone '+' and change all the pluses that
follow it to backticks.
AsciiDoc renders this paragraph identically before and after this
commit, and Asciidoctor now renders this the same as AsciiDoc.
I did try to switch the whole paragraph to using backticks rather than
pluses. That worked great with Asciidoctor, but confused AsciiDoc...
Let's go with this rather surgical change instead.

These tabs happen to appear in columns where they don't stand out too
much, so the diff here is non-obvious. Some of these are rendered
differently by AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor (although the difference might
be invisible!), which is how I found a few of them. The remainder were
found using `git grep "[a-zA-Z.,)]$TAB[a-zA-Z]"`.

The "highlight" binary can, in some cases, determine the language type
by the means of file contents, for example the shebang in the first line
for some scripting languages. Make use of this autodetection for files
which syntax is not known by gitweb. In that case, pass the blob
contents to "highlight --force"; the parameter is needed to make it
always generate HTML output (which includes HTML-escaping).
Although we now run highlight on files which do not end up highlighted,
performance is virtually unaffected because when we call highlight, it
is used for escaping HTML. In the case that highlight is used, gitweb
calls sanitize() instead of esc_html(), and the latter is significantly
slower (it does more, being roughly a superset of sanitize()). Simple
benchmark comparing performance of 'blob' view of files without syntax
highlighting in gitweb before and after this change indicates ±1%
difference in request time for all file types. Benchmark was performed
on local instance on Debian, using Apache/2.4.23 web server and CGI.
Document the feature and improve syntax highlight documentation, add
test to ensure gitweb doesn't crash when language detection is used.

"environment". It was obtained with:

One of the main purposes is to stick to the CodingGuidelines as possible so
that people writting new documentation by mimicking the existing are more likely
to have it right (even if they didn't read the CodingGuidelines).

Highlight that CONFIG_SYSTEM and /etc/gitweb.conf are meant to be
the fallback configuration file in BUGS section of gitweb.conf
documentation. This will hopefully help people who expect them to
be a common default, which unfortunately came later in the history.
Our documentation was written for an ancient version of AsciiDoc,
making the source not very readable.
By Jeff King
* jk/doc-asciidoc-inline-literal:
docs: stop using asciidoc no-inline-literal
In asciidoc 7, backticks like `foo` produced a typographic
effect, but did not otherwise affect the syntax. In asciidoc
8, backticks introduce an "inline literal" inside which markup
is not interpreted. To keep compatibility with existing
documents, asciidoc 8 has a "no-inline-literal" attribute to
keep the old behavior. We enabled this so that the
documentation could be built on either version.
It has been several years now, and asciidoc 7 is no longer
in wide use. We can now decide whether or not we want
inline literals on their own merits, which are:
1. The source is much easier to read when the literal
contains punctuation. You can use `master~1` instead
of `master{tilde}1`.
2. They are less error-prone. Because of point (1), we
tend to make mistakes and forget the extra layer of
quoting.
This patch removes the no-inline-literal attribute from the
Makefile and converts every use of backticks in the
documentation to an inline literal (they must be cleaned up,
or the example above would literally show "{tilde}" in the
output).
Problematic sites were found by grepping for '`.*[{\\]' and
examined and fixed manually. The results were then verified
by comparing the output of "html2text" on the set of
generated html pages. Doing so revealed that in addition to
making the source more readable, this patch fixes several
formatting bugs:
- HTML rendering used the ellipsis character instead of
literal "..." in code examples (like "git log A...B")
- some code examples used the right-arrow character
instead of '->' because they failed to quote
- api-config.txt did not quote tilde, and the resulting
HTML contained a bogus snippet like:
<tt><sub></tt> foo <tt></sub>bar</tt>
which caused some parsers to choke and omit whole
sections of the page.
- git-commit.txt confused ``foo`` (backticks inside a
literal) with ``foo'' (matched double-quotes)
- mentions of `A U Thor <author@example.com>` used to
erroneously auto-generate a mailto footnote for
author@example.com
- the description of --word-diff=plain incorrectly showed
the output as "[-removed-] and {added}", not "{+added+}".
- using "prime" notation like:
commit `C` and its replacement `C'`
confused asciidoc into thinking that everything between
the first backtick and the final apostrophe were meant
to be inside matched quotes
- asciidoc got confused by the escaping of some of our
asterisks. In particular,
`credential.\*` and `credential.<url>.\*`
properly escaped the asterisk in the first case, but
literally passed through the backslash in the second
case.
