Support configurable Git config search path for Rugged
This commit adds an optional rugged_git_config_search_path
parameter for
gitaly-ruby.
By default, Rugged searches inside /etc/gitconfig
instead of
/opt/gitlab/embedded/etc/gitconfig
for system-wide options unless the
Rugged::Settings['search_path_system']
is set.
This means that important options such as core.fsyncObjectFiles
are
not propagated to gitaly-ruby, which can result in data loss after
servers are rebooted.
The command-line git
doesn't have this issue because it uses the
prefix
compile-time option, but this isn't available in Rugged.
With this new parameter, package managers (e.g. Omnibus) can specify
where the system gitconfig
file should be.
Closes #2051 (closed)
