rPc7f23f522a79: Accept and route VCS HTTP requests
Summary

Mostly ripped from D7391, with some changes:

  • Serve repositories at /diffusion/X/, with no special /git/ or /serve/ URI component.
    • This requires a little bit of magic, but I got the magic working for Git, Mercurial and SVN, and it seems reasonable.
    • I think having one URI for everything will make it easier for users to understand.
    • One downside is that git will clone into X by default, but I think that's not a big deal, and we can work around that in the future easily enough.
  • Accept HTTP requests for Git, SVN and Mercurial repositories.
  • Auth logic is a little different in order to be more consistent with how other things work.
  • Instead of AphrontBasicAuthResponse, added "VCSResponse". Mercurial can print strings we send it on the CLI if we're careful, so support that. I did a fair amount of digging and didn't have any luck with git or svn.
  • Commands we don't know about are assumed to require "Push" capability by default.

No actual VCS data going over the wire yet.

Test Plan

Ran a bunch of stuff like this:

$ hg clone http://local.aphront.com:8080/diffusion/P/
abort: HTTP Error 403: This repository is not available over HTTP.

...and got pretty reasonable-seeming errors in all cases. All this can do is produce errors for now.

Event Timeline

I could do git clone http://phabricator.local/diffusion/TEST/ and get Authentiation Failed. Setting the view policy to public gives me "not valid: is this a git repository?" which is expected given that there's no commands behind any of this.
