This fixes a collection of bugs surrounding LDAP configurations A and
C (i.e. LDAP_APPEND_DOMAIN=None) with EmailAuthBackend also enabled.
The core problem was that our desired security model in that setting
of requiring LDAP authentication for accounts managed by LDAP was not
implementable without a way to
Now admins can configure an LDAPSearch query that will find if there
are users in LDAP that have the email address and
email_belongs_to_ldap() will take advantage of that - no longer
returning True in response to all requests and thus blocking email
backend authentication.
In the documentation, we describe this as mandatory configuration for
users (and likely will make it so soon in the code) because the
failure modes for this not being configured are confusing.
But making that change is pending work to improve the relevant error
messages.
Fixes#11715.
This adds the general machinery required, and sets it up for the file
`typing_status.js` as a first use case.

There are a few outstanding issues that we expect to resolve beforce
including this in a release, but this is good checkpoint to merge.
This PR is a collaboration with Tim Abbott.
Fixes#716.
- Updated 260+ links from ".html" to ".md" to reduce the number of issues
reported about hyperlinks not working when viewing docs on Github.
- Removed temporary workaround that suppressed all warnings reported
by sphinx build for every link ending in ".html".
Details:
The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting
".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct.
Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading",
were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them.
These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues.
However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported
as broken links. This will be a follow-up issue.
Background:
docs: pip upgrade recommonmark and CommonMark #13013
docs: Allow .md links between doc pages #11719Fixes#11087.
Previously, we were hardcoding the domain s3.amazonaws.com. Given
that we already have an interface for configuring the host in
/etc/zulip/boto.cfg (which in turn, automatically configures boto), we
just need to actually use the value configured in boto for what S3
hostname to use.
We don't have tests for this new use case, in part because they're
likely annoying to write with `moto` and there hasn't been a huge
amount of demand for it. Since this doesn't regress existing S3
backend support, it seems worth merging.
Add a specific command to restart Vagrant to adopt the new
configuration.
(When naïvely using only `vagrant halt` + `vagrant up --provision`,
external devices remained unable to connect; per `netstat -nltp`, the
host IP of forwarded ports remained `127.0.0.1`.)
This sidesteps tricky escaping issues, and will make it easier to
build a strict Content-Security-Policy.

We have lots of documentation for Zulip developers; but previously
didn't have a nice top-level page for Zulip server administrators to
learn how to manage patches to Zulip.
We no longer use tsearch_extras, and the camo patch is irrelevant on
systemd systems (Xenial and newer). So we no longer need to
provide/install a PPA at all.
Closes#13027.

Now that we're implemented tsearch_extras in pure postgres, we no
longer need a custom extension. This should help us considerably, as
it means we no longer need to ship custom apt packages at all.

- Added warning block to dev docs using _templates/layout.html
- Removed copy-pasted warning from install.md and requirements.md
- Removed unreleased tag in docs/conf.py that's no longer used

This requires part 1 (which can take hours to run but generally
doesn't require downtime) to be completed first.
This portion of the migration will require the server to be completely
down for a brief period; for chat.zulip.org with 250M UserMessage
rows, it took about 60s to run; that time will vary depending on
hardware details like whether the server has an SSD, but fundamentally
shouldn't be long.
Our upgrade-zulip and upgrade-zulip-from-git tools can apply this
migration correctly; nothing special needs to be done.
Fixes#13040.
mypy in daemon mode takes some 400 MiB of memory, and cannot follow

Previously, Google might take you to /latest rather than /stable, and
you might get information about the next release, not the current one.
Fixes#13056.
Apparently, the ordering matters.
This command now matches what we use for installing single-purpose
installations; I should have checked this directly.
One needs to explicitly request zulip::base, it appears. Ideally,
we'd just have every ruleset depend on zulip::base, but I seem to
recall Puppet didn't like your including the same module from multiple
places. Worth testing as a follow-up investigation.
This was missed because we use the zulip_ops rules internally, which
include zulip::base via zulip_ops::base.
This commit finishes adding end-to-end support for the install script
on Debian Buster (making it production ready). Some support for this
was already added in prior commits such as
99414e2d96.
We plan to revert the postgres hunks of this once we've built
tsearch_extras for our packagecloud archive.
Fixes#9828.

In this section of the docs, two tools for testing openapi
documentation are mentioned. But for the second one, we
forgot to mention that the tool also resides in the tools/
folder (like the first one which explicitly mentions it).
This commit fixes that.
Delete trailing newlines from all files, except
tools/ci/success-http-headers.txt and tools/setup/dev-motd, where they
are significant, and static/third, where we want to stay close to
upstream.
