Review Board 4.0.11 Release Notes¶

Added debug logs for failed database upgrades.

If there’s an issue upgrading the database, complete details will be logged to a file that can be used when contacting Beanbag Support to help diagnose and repair the issue.

Added new internal capabilities for repository configuration.

This is mostly behind-the-scenes, but will enable support for new remote SSH access for Cliosoft SOS repositories.

Added APIs for controlling repository access lists.

Administrators can now control the users and groups that are allowed to access review requests on a repository.

This is done through the Repository Group List Resource and Repository User List Resource APIs.

Fixed rare data truncation issues in SSH communication.

Depending on the operations being performed over SSH, it’s possible for a session to end before all data has been received. This would normally manifest as a visible error talking to a repository, rather than any kind of data loss.

We haven’t had any reports of this, but have managed to trigger this behavior with some work we’ve been exploring.

Fixed issues with multiple commits in Mercurial.

Posting multiple commits to a review request could cause issues with looking up modified files in the diff, due to some state being ignored during processing.

Patch by Valentin Bartenev.

Fixed a crash in rb-site when running in a pseudo-terminal that claims a width of 0.

Patch by Werner Damman.

Fixed a precision error that could occur in API rate limiting.
