| 00:21 | Linked to the new material showing Fossil's idea of user power hierarchy from the comment in fossil-v-git.wiki about Fossil's support for the organization's social and power hierarchies. It's not that Fossil has *no* support for enforcing this, it's that it's usually a fairly loose match between the two systems. This is an important point, because some people new to Fossil expect 1:1 mapping and get disappointed when we tell them it just doesn't do that. check-in: b72795a339 user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |
| 00:17 | Fixed some URLs still referring to admin-v-setup.md in its old location. check-in: 182c4d7abc user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |
| 00:07 | Investigated the use of HTTP for sync over ssh:// and file:// URLs and added what I found to the "Caps Affect Web Interfaces Only" section of the new caps docs. check-in: 845b459439 user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |

| 23:33 | Documented Public Pages and the default user capability set in www/caps/index.md. check-in: 4671ddb179 user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |
| 23:15 | Moved the discussion about inadvertent attribution of artifacts and the problems with easy solutions to the problem into the implementation details section of the new caps docs and expanded it to cover recent forum discussions. check-in: 78ad8b7496 user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |
| 22:42 | Assorted small improvements to top-level caps doc check-in: f21bfbeede user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |
| 22:09 | Expanded the "Why Not Bitfields?" discussion in www/caps/impl.md. Also tweaked the "Capability Letter Choices" text a bit while in there. check-in: 3ac560a2d0 user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |

| 20:35 | Moved www/capabilities.md to www/caps/index.md and www/admin-v-setup.md to www/caps/admin-v-setup.md. Then broke three chunks of the old capabilities.md doc out into new www/caps/* docs: login groups, implementation details of user capabilities, and the user capability reference material. The latter switched from Markdown to HTML format so we could make it a clearer-looking table, rather than its prior hard-to-read bullet list form. check-in: c6cdf9ce8e user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |
| 18:04 | Merged most of the new material on Setup vs Admin in the new capabilities doc into the pre-existing admin-v-setup.md doc, which already covers this topic. check-in: ee901c7be3 user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |
| 03:56 | Grepped the Fossil source code for C code that checks for Setup caps exclusively to preotect functions and listed those in the Reference section of capablities.md. Also expanded the coverage of the "caps affect Fossil web interfaces only" section, which plays into this. check-in: 689f7683b6 user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |
| 01:55 | Rewrote explanation of "o" cap. check-in: 208ca0d713 user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |
| 01:40 | Disentangled discussion of "developer" vs "reader" in capabilities.md. check-in: 869494eb8f user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |
| 01:00 | Added (Names) to the "Capability Reference" section of capabilities.md so the reference can be used while reading C source code, which uses these names instead of the capability characters in all code past the login handler. check-in: d48dff8fd7 user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |

| 11:49 | Clarified the placement of "moderator" and "subscriber" in the power hierarchy expression within www/capabilities.md, since each could float up and down somewhat within the fixed hierarchy we give here. Also fixed a broken URL. check-in: ba88f4f2a7 user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |
| 11:07 | Markdown hyperlinks are only converted to links to wiki if the named wikipage actually exists. Otherwise, the link becomes a relative link. This is for backwards compatibility. check-in: 3b10e64468 user: drh tags: trunk | |
| 08:31 | Added www/capabilities.md, a complete treatment on user capabilities, user categories, login groups, and administration matters involving all of this. It does not replace the pre-existing admin-v-setup.md doc, but a bit of its content did move into this new doc. The new doc also contains the user capability info previously in the forum.wiki doc. This is on a branch because although it's quite useful already, it could use some work before being merged down. At the barest minimum, there are some unanswered questions in the new doc that need addressing. This new doc does not replace the existing documentation in the UI. It may be that we end up paring that down a bit now that we have a full doc to refer to, but that is a topic for the forum thread that will appear shortly after this checkin. check-in: 832f107ebb user: wyoung tags: caps-doc | |
| 05:32 | Fixed a few fatal error messages from the login-group command that referred to an "add" command, which is now called "join". The symptom I saw is that "fossil login-group add" complained that "add" is not a valid command and that you should give '"add" or "leave"' instead! check-in: 09c65d7527 user: wyoung tags: trunk | |
| 05:22 | Fixed a few messages from the login-group command that referred to an apparent older name for the "join" sub-command, "add". This lead to a confusing symptom: "fossil login-group add foo" -> {unknown command "add" - should be "add" or "leave"}. check-in: 739cd8720e user: wyoung tags: trunk | |

| 15:06 | Stronger recommendation for changing the default user's random hex password prior to setting up a Fossil server after learning it's 6 hex digits, not 8 as I thoght when I wrote that! check-in: 9fcd6e443c user: wyoung tags: trunk | |
| 14:14 | Added bullet list detailing the sources for <script nonce=""> from a Fossil server and the reasons we consider each path safe. check-in: 91377ae432 user: wyoung tags: trunk | |
| 13:31 | Reworked the material explaining why in-page <style> is currently allowed by Fossil's default CSP to make it clearer that this is most likely a temporary situation and that local custom CSS should go in the skin instead. check-in: 092eeebf40 user: wyoung tags: trunk | |
| 13:13 | Expanded the discussion of in-repo and out-of-repo resource links in defcsp.md. check-in: 23fcd765f6 user: wyoung tags: trunk | |
| 12:39 | Reworked the new introductory material in defcsp.md to be less about the CSP as last-resort and more about being a secondary filter to our other measures. Gave examples to clarify the tensions that prevent a purely server-side solution from being a practical solution. check-in: 1c4df5bf0a user: wyoung tags: trunk | |
| 11:54 | "RaspberryPI" -> "Raspberry Pi" check-in: 5182be99c9 user: wyoung tags: trunk | |
| 11:53 | Assorted refinements to the new pre- and post-activation advice sections in www/server/index.html: nix passive voice, add a few details, add some links to related docs, etc. Also fixed a CSS indenting problem preventing correct use of <p> in <li>, then made use of the new freedom in these sections' numbered lists. check-in: b5c2c9bf31 user: wyoung tags: trunk | |

| 19:18 | Fix the $ROOT mechanism in HTML documents so that it accepts any whitespace character before href= and script=. Add $ROOT in appropriate places in the server documentation. check-in: 3e183bfad8 user: drh tags: trunk | |
| 18:15 | Outline how to configure a repository before and after server activation. check-in: 154ea087af user: drh tags: trunk | |
| 17:37 | Improvements to the althttpd documentation. check-in: 44f1df9fef user: drh tags: trunk | |
| 17:21 | Further improvements to the server document. check-in: c2c4d3039f user: drh tags: trunk | |
| 16:57 | Extra defenses against running fossil_atexit() more than once. check-in: bc7683e15a user: drh tags: trunk | |
| 16:55 | Fix the "shell" command so that it avoids invoking the atexit() handler more than once. check-in: 07a5a2118e user: drh tags: trunk | |
| 15:56 | Server documentation updates. check-in: b2426c2786 user: drh tags: trunk | |

| 12:32 | Disallow versioning of security sensitive settings tcl-setup, th1-setup, and th1-uri-regexp. For effective security, these settings should only be controllable by an administrator. check-in: 2da704c5a1 user: drh tags: trunk | |
