[jira] [Resolved] (INFRA-3160) Hook: Authorization

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-3160?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Paul Joseph Davis resolved INFRA-3160.
--------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Since this ticket was created infra has been moving more towards using LDAP directly. Previous versions of the auth code have used the same asf-authorization file that SVN uses. Currently Git just queries LDAP directly to get the list of authorized committers for a given project. For auth of users not in LDAP (global git admins, build bots, etc) there's a static file that can be used to add in user names. The relevant code is here:

https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/infra/asfgit-admin/blob/master/asfgit/auth.py

> Task: Using a pre-receive hook, restrict the user to only write to a repository that they have group write access to.
> Groups are defined in LDAP, but we generally use a static file that is updated after ldap automatically, and it has been suggested that we re-use the svn authz file.
> If not using svn authz file format, write a script that exports to a file format usable by the hook, in addition to the hook script itself.
