It could even be the default view for a repo.

• milestone: limbo --> forge-backlog

• labels: support, p3 --> support, p3, 42cc

Let's make the default view use master/HEAD in the URL. And the sidebar links to branches should go to the branch (e.g. https://sourceforge.net/p/allura/git/ci/42cc_3027/tree/) instead of redirecting to a commit id. Same for tags.

Since we don't use this form of URLs explicitly yet (although they seem to work fine), so there may be a few places where they don't work. Test to make sure all the views (history, commit, diff, merge requests, etc) work fine.

Created #297: [#5120] Change default urls for the repo (2cp)

Note: branches with special chars will probably need encoding, and those with a slash (e.g. "db/1234") might need additional handling like http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#allowencodedslashes if using apache/mod_wsgi

Closed #297.

Allura: je/42cc_5120

ForgeHg: 42cc_5120 (just fixed related tests)

Regarding branches with '/' in their names, seems like apache's AllowEncodedSlashes doesn't help with it. I've tried both On and NoDecode options (current apache version on sandboxes doesn't support the later, so I've upgraded apache). I've got 404 from apache for urls like ci/je%2F42cc/ with both of the above.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong? Could you look at this, please?

The second approach to fix it is to use some special character to determine where branch name ends and handle it in the TG controller(s) (see RefsController, that already does it).

Putting the logic in url_for_commit makes all links to the head commits turn into the named links (e.g., in the History view). This makes it harder to get the link to a specific revision if it is the head of some branch.

We really just want the branch links and default link from the app toolbar icon to use the named links, so instead of having the logic in url_for_commit, there should be a new url_for_symbolic and make BranchBrowser.index in the SCM implementations use that instead of url_for_commit, and make it work using the END_OF_REF_ESCAPE, as mentioned (will require change in CommitsController._lookup).

Upon further discussion regarding the END_OF_REF_ESCAPE, we're thinking we might want to look into getting the encoded slashes working, so don't worry about that part.

Fixed handling of branches with / in the name. Also changed branch listing to only show first 10, as with tags.

If the branches change is acceptable, could close out [#6044] as well.
