Game of Trees 0.118 released

Version 0.118 of Game of Trees has been released (and the port updated):

  • security fix for -portable: gotwebd can be tricked into reading repositories outside its repos_path; bug introduced in got-0.111; OpenBSD is not affected
  • make 'tog diff' show the repository name in names of patches written to /tmp
  • plug memory leaks which were making gotwebd regress tests fail
  • fix parallel processing of requests in gotwebd, improving responsiveness
  • set gotwebd pledges according to address families of listening sockets
  • run gotwebd fcgi parameter parsing in a dedicated process under pledge "stdio"
  • make gotd commit notifications only show history which is unique to the branch
  • enable sftp/scp support in the sshd_config file generated by gotsysd
  • make gotsysd-managed repositories readable for the _gotd group
