    • Method Detail

      • isGitClient

        public static boolean isGitClient​(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req)
        Check a request for Git-over-HTTP indicators.
        Parameters:
        req - the current HTTP request that may have been made by Git.
        Returns:
        true if the request is likely made by a Git client program.
      • sendError

        public static void sendError​(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req,
                                     javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse res,
                                     int httpStatus)
                              throws IOException
        Send an error to the Git client or browser.

        Server implementors may use this method to send customized error messages to a Git protocol client using an HTTP 200 OK response with the error embedded in the payload. If the request was not issued by a Git client, an HTTP response code is returned instead.

        Parameters:
        req - current request.
        res - current response.
        httpStatus - HTTP status code to set if the client is not a Git client.
        Throws:
        IOException - the response cannot be sent.
      • sendError

        public static void sendError​(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req,
                                     javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse res,
                                     int httpStatus,
                                     String textForGit)
                              throws IOException
        Send an error to the Git client or browser.

        Server implementors may use this method to send customized error messages to a Git protocol client using an HTTP 200 OK response with the error embedded in the payload. If the request was not issued by a Git client, an HTTP response code is returned instead.

        This method may only be called before handing off the request to UploadPack.upload(java.io.InputStream, OutputStream, OutputStream) or ReceivePack.receive(java.io.InputStream, OutputStream, OutputStream).

        Parameters:
        req - current request.
        res - current response.
        httpStatus - HTTP status code to set if the client is not a Git client.
        textForGit - plain text message to display on the user's console. This is shown only if the client is likely to be a Git client. If null or the empty string a default text is chosen based on the HTTP response code.
        Throws:
        IOException - the response cannot be sent.
      • stripServiceSuffix

        public static String stripServiceSuffix​(String path)
        Strip the Git service suffix from a request path. Generally the suffix is stripped by the SuffixPipeline handling the request, so this method is rarely needed.
        Parameters:
        path - the path of the request.
        Returns:
        the path up to the last path component before the service suffix; the path as-is if it contains no service suffix.
      • isInfoRefs

        public static boolean isInfoRefs​(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req)
        Check if the HTTP request was for the /info/refs?service= Git handler.
        Parameters:
        req - current request.
        Returns:
        true if the request is for the /info/refs service.
      • isUploadPack

        public static boolean isUploadPack​(String pathOrUri)
        Check if the HTTP request path ends with the /git-upload-pack handler.
        Parameters:
        pathOrUri - path or URI of the request.
        Returns:
        true if the request is for the /git-upload-pack handler.
      • isUploadPack

        public static boolean isUploadPack​(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req)

        Parameters:
        req - current request.
        Returns:
        true if the request is for the /git-upload-pack handler.
      • isReceivePack

        public static boolean isReceivePack​(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest req)
        Check if the HTTP request was for the /git-receive-pack Git handler.
        Parameters:
        req - current request.
        Returns:
