While one often might want to put the user's name in an email
template, `name` here was the user's full name, not their first name,
and thus reads as quite formal.
Our implementation of duplication detection in the Zulip email error
reporting system was buggy in two important ways:
* It did not look at the traceback, and thus considered all errors as
the same.
* It reset the 10-minute duplicate timer every time an error happened,
thus concealing situations where the same error was occuring more
often than 1/10 minutes.
This fixes a problem where the requests to Tornado would attempt to
use a configured outgoing HTTP proxy, when really we want to connect
directly to localhost.
Fixes: #468.
This adds support for using PGroonga to back the Zulip full-text
search feature. Because built-in PostgreSQL full text search doesn't
support languages that don't put space between terms such as Japanese,
Chinese and so on. PGroonga supports all languages including Japanese
and Chinese.
Developers will need to re-provision when rebasing past this patch for
the tests to pass, since provision is what installs the PGroonga
package and extension.
PGroonga is enabled by default in development but not in production;
the hope is that after the PGroonga support is tested further, we can
enable it by default.
Fixes#615.

Old behavior is to do something tricky that relies on the server being on
Pacific Time and the users being in the US. The goal is to have this message
appear during business hours, since click through rates are higher during
business hours. Our server is now on the East Coast though and our users are
in every timezone, so until we do something smarter this seems like a better
heuristic. We're also trying to cleanse our codebase of non-timezone-aware
datetime.datetime objects.
Apparently, we had incorrectly concluded that our highlight_string
search result highlighting offsets coming from tsearch_extras were
measured in bytes, whereas in fact it is measured in characters.
The previous default configuration resulted in delivery problems if
the Zulip server was authorized in the SPF records for the domains of
all users on the Zulip server.
Also changes all links to /integrations to be relative rather than
absolute, so that users will primarily access the /integrations page
for their subdomain.
This has the nice side effect of getting rid of the now-unnecessary
ADMIN_DOMAIN from this codepath -- we really just want whichever
realm ERROR_BOT is in.
Since this delayed sending feature is the only thing
settings.MANDRILL_API_KEY is used for, it seems reasonable for that to
be the gate as to whether we actually use Mandrill.
This is a convenient tool to have around.
We require an unusual argument value of "YES" to send to everyone on
the server, since that's something one should do with a great deal of
care.
This sends an event when a new avatar is uploaded that refreshes the
avatar for all browser clients without the need to reload the browser.
Fixes: #1359.
!avatar, !modal_link, !gravatar, etc. were incorrectly being processed
before the escape character for code blocks.
While we're at it, we add tests for these special syntaxes.
