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.
I don't think the black/white fallback code is actually used by
default, and thus when it is used, it's usually a sign that something
is broken. We should throw an error, but at the very least it makes
sense to print a warning.
In d583710f7c, I apparently broke the
color emoji handling, which was masked (for test purposes) by the fact
that we catch an expection if color doesn't work and in that case fall
back to black and white emoji.
This adds support for using VMWare Fusion as the Vagrant provider,
which has better performance than Virtualbox at the price of being
nonfree (in all senses of the term).
We haven't done solid benchmarking as to how much faster it is than
the Virtualbox provider.
The main purpose of the "var" convention is to make it easy to write stuff
inside of our git repo when running a dev instance, and then "var" gets
excluded from checkins. For production, that's not as much of a concern.
For upgrades we don't want to be changing the directory around and confusing
matters, especially with the extra moving part of nginx configs (which have
their own issues in terms of being overwritten by accident when admins go to
S3).
Between releases 1.3.13 and 1.4.0, local_settings.py was renamed to
prod_settings.py. The upgrade scripts were adjusted to reflect this name
change. But because the first part of the upgrade script is run with the
currently installed version's code, the symlink to /etc/zulip/settings.py is
created with the old name. This was causing upgrade-zulip-stage-2 to fail.
Now upgrade-zulip-stage-2 creates the symlink at zproject/prod_settings.py
if it doesn't already exist.
Fixes#1731.
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.
Fixed IndexError when there is only zero or more whitespace characters
between < and >. (str.split() will return an empty list in this case, which
means there is no index 0.)
* Replace generic Exception with TemplateParserException.
* Add tests to cover many of the uncovered lines in
tools/lib/template_parser.py.
* Add an exclusion line to the naïve pattern for checking for missing
tuples in format strings, to keep the linter happy.
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.
[docs and tests tweaked by tabbott]
From the popups that appear when clicking the down-arrow in the left
column's streams, you can now unsubscribe from that particular
channel. This runs on the same function that unsubscribes you from
streams in the "Subscriptions" tab.
Fixes: #1554.
[tweaked by tabbott to fix some errors]
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.
The ‘for’ attribute is not valid HTML in the case of this because the
emails are invalid character sets and the input has no ID with the
email.
This changes it to a data-name which is still searchable but doesn’t
interfere with typical input behavior.
The checkboxes no longer float-left, fixing an issue with the
subscribe buttons leaning right in narrow windows.
Fixes: #1491.
