h3. Host name and path
33 22 Jean-Philippe Lang
34 50 Go MAEDA
Host name and path of your Redmine server. This name is used to write URL in emails sent to users. i.e.: the hostname of this precise Redmine is redmine.org.
35 22 Jean-Philippe Lang
36
h3. Protocol
37
38
Protocol used to generate links in email notifications. _Default: http_
39
40
Links in email are "guessed", but can't determine whether you're using an unsecure web server (http) or a secure one (https -> http over SSL).
41
42
h3. Text formatting
43 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
44 22 Jean-Philippe Lang
Formatting method applied to the "description" fields of the issues, news, documents...
45
46 24 Jean-Philippe Lang
h3. Cache formatted text (1.0)
47
48 50 Go MAEDA
Text formatting transforms raw text to HTML and runs each time a formatted text is sent to a user's browser (eg. issue description, wiki page...), and this process can be slow with large pages or texts.
49 24 Jean-Philippe Lang
50 43 Ben Blanco
This setting lets you enable caching of formatted text.
51 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
52 43 Ben Blanco
In order to use this feature you also need to specify a cache store, such as @config.action_controller.cache_store = :memory_store@, which you configure by adding this setting to your @config/environments/production.rb@, for example:
53
54
<pre>
55 45 Ben Blanco
# config/environments/production.rb
56
57
  ...
58
59 43 Ben Blanco
  config.consider_all_requests_local = false
60
  config.action_controller.perform_caching = true
61
62 44 Ben Blanco
  # Specify which cache store redmine should use:
63
64 43 Ben Blanco
  config.action_controller.cache_store = :memory_store
65
</pre>
66
67
By default, this cache store is "MemoryStore":http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveSupport/Cache/MemoryStore.html.
68
69
If RAM memory usage on your server is a concern, it's highly recommended that you configure the cache to use another cache store like MemCacheStore or FileStore.
70 24 Jean-Philippe Lang
71
You can read more about cache stores in the Rails guides:
72 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/caching_with_rails.html#cache-stores

86
87
This option lets you choose a custom theme.
88
Redmine is shipped with two additional themes besides the [[ThemeDefault|default]] theme:
89 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
* [[ThemeAlternate|alternate]], which mainly provides issue list colorization based on issues priority.
90
* [[ThemeClassic|classic]], which is derived from the Redmine 0.5.1 design and brings a _classic_ look.
91
92
Screenshot of the [[ThemeAlternate|alternate]] theme:

215
216
h3. Session expiration
217
218
Session maximum lifetime: Lets the administrator set the maximum lifetime of the session
219
Session inactivity timeout: Lets the administrator specify after how many hours of inactivity the session times out.
220
%{color:red}Warning 1%: Changing these settings may expire the current sessions (including your own).
221 18 Mischa The Evil
%{color:red}Warning 2%: Redmine uses the rails cookiestore for session management. We strongly advise you to set a maximum session lifetime. If you don't, it is theoretically possible that an attacker steals the session cookie and re-uses it.

293
294 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
Defines how the Issue Done Percentage is set.
295
296

297
* *Use the issue status*: Each issue status can be assigned a percentage. This enables the [[RedmineIssueTrackingSetup#-Done|"% Done" option for issues]] and the [[RedmineIssueTrackingSetup#Update-issue-done-ratios|"Update issue done ratios" command in the issue statuses overview]].

352
This option lets you specify preferred encodings for repository files (multiple values allowed, comma separated). These encodings are used to convert files content and diff to UTF-8 so that they're properly displayed in the browser.
353
When entering multiple encodings, the first valid encoding regarding the file content is used.
354

h3. Enabled SCM
412
413
Here you can (de)select the SCM-systems Redmine should "provide" to the individual projects. This setting is useful if you only support several SCM-systems (e.g. only Git or only SVN).
414
415 42 Sebastian Paluch
h3. Fetch commits automatically
416 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
417
If this option is activated, the application automatically retrieves the new revisions when a user consults the repository.
418
419
_Default: Yes_
420 42 Sebastian Paluch
421
You can disable this option and automate the call to Repository#fetch_changesets using cron to regularly retrieve the revisions for all of the repositories in the background.
422
Example:
423 14 Jean-Philippe Lang
<pre>ruby script/runner "Repository.fetch_changesets" -e production</pre>
424 36 Mischa The Evil
425 3 Jean-Philippe Lang
For Redmine 2.x:
426 18 Mischa The Evil
427
<pre>ruby script/rails runner "Repository.fetch_changesets" -e production</pre>
428 21 Nick Fischer
429 18 Mischa The Evil
For Redmine 3.x:
430 8 Jean-Philippe Lang
431 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
<pre>bin/rails runner "Repository.fetch_changesets" -e production</pre>
432 21 Nick Fischer
433 8 Jean-Philippe Lang
You can also call this task from your repository in a post-commit or post-receive hook, so that changesets are fetched after each commit.
434
Here is a tutorial for doing so with git: http://www.barricane.com/remine-git-post-receive.html
435
436 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
h3. Enable WS for repository management
437 8 Jean-Philippe Lang
438 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
This option should be activated only if you installed the script for automatic SVN repository creation. _Default: No_
439
440
h3. Maximum number of revisions displayed on file log
441 47 Go MAEDA
442
It provides a way to limit the amount of revisions which are retrieved from the SCM for a certain, browsed path.
443 50 Go MAEDA
444
h3. Apply text formatting to commit messages

448 12 Jean-Philippe Lang
h3. Referencing issues in commit messages
449 4 Jean-Philippe Lang
450 9 Jean-Philippe Lang
When fetched from the repositories, commit messages are scanned for referenced or fixed issue IDs.
451
These options lets you define keywords that can be used in commit message to reference or fix issues automatically, and the status to apply to fixed issues.
452 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
453 9 Jean-Philippe Lang
Default keywords are:
454
455
* for referencing issues: refs, references, IssueID
456
* for fixing issues: fixes, closes
457
458
There's no default status defined for fixed issue. You'll have to specify it if you want to enable auto closure of issues.
459 27 Larry Cai
If you want to reference issues without using keywords, enter a single star: * in the *Referencing keywords* (Administration/Repository) setting. In this case, any issue ID found in the message will be linked to the changeset.
460 9 Jean-Philippe Lang
461
Example of a working commit message using default keywords:
462
463
  This commit refs #1, #2 and fixes #3
464
465
This message would reference issues 1 and 2 and automatically fix issue 3.
466
After a keyword issue IDs can be separated with a space, a comma or &.
467 30 Jean-Baptiste Barth
468 40 Ulf Renman
The keywords are caseinsensitive and at least one blankspace or colon is needed between the keyword and the first hash to produce 
469
a match. More examples that will produce the same result as the example above:<pre>
470
This commit refs:#1, #2 and fixes #3
471
This commit Refs  #1, #2 and fixes #3
472
This commit REFS: #1, #2 and fixes #3
473
</pre>
474
475 30 Jean-Baptiste Barth
h3. Enable time logging
476
477
Allows time logging directly from commit messages. This only makes sense if you activated the "Time tracking" module in said project. In this case, you can add special words in your commit message to indicate the time you spent on an issue.
478
479
The basic syntax for doing that is : @@<time>@, where time consists in a number of hours or minutes.
480
481
Here's a list of many valid commit messages that would work if you want to say you spent N hours on issue 1234: <pre>
482
Implement feature #1234 @2
483
484
