We were having issues in development mode where the JS code had errors due to a bad cache. When starting a server in development mode in bin/unicorn we now get the git sha of the discourse HEAD and get a git sha of all plugins, and store them in a file. If the sha has changed then we delete tmp/cache to refresh the assets cache.
- Avoid using User#find and then fetching the user_stat association just to update a counter - We did this for every post in the topic.
- Avoid having to query the topic_allowed_user table everytime we want add a new topic_allowed_user
- Use pluck to fetch just what we need.
The group card and group members page were affecting each other and were
leaking members list and the query parameters which led to bad UX
experience and sub-optimal performance (client made more queries because
it was loading fewer members).
This commit refactors the group model to make it more consistent, remove
dead code, move error handling outside of model.
isPrivateMessages represents that the tag list is shown in the context
of private messages and pmOnly represents that the tag is used only in
private messages.
We have tested rate limiting with admin accounts with block rate limiting for
close to 12 months now on meta.discourse.org.
This has resulted in no degradation of services even to admin accounts that
request a lot of info from the site.
The default of 200 requests a minute and 50 per 10 seconds is very generous.
It simply protects against very aggressive clients.
This setting can be disabled or tweaked using:
DISCOURSE_MAX_REQS_PER_IP_MODE and family.
The only big downside here is in cases when a very large number of users tend
to all come from a single IP.
This can be the case on sites accessing Discourse from an internal network
all sharing the same IP via NAT. Or a misconfigured Discourse that is unable
to resolve IP addresses of users due to proxy mis-configuration.
* Fix an issue where if an edit was made to a post with a reason provided, and then another edit was made with no reason, the original edit reason got wiped out
* We now always make a post revision (even with ninja edits) if an edit reason has been provided and it is different from the current edit reason

This PR introduces a new secure media setting. When enabled, it prevent unathorized access to media uploads (files of type image, video and audio). When the `login_required` setting is enabled, then all media uploads will be protected from unauthorized (anonymous) access. When `login_required`is disabled, only media in private messages will be protected from unauthorized access.
A few notes:
- the `prevent_anons_from_downloading_files` setting no longer applies to audio and video uploads
- the `secure_media` setting can only be enabled if S3 uploads are already enabled and configured
- upload records have a new column, `secure`, which is a boolean `true/false` of the upload's secure status
- when creating a public post with an upload that has already been uploaded and is marked as secure, the post creator will raise an error
- when enabling or disabling the setting on a site with existing uploads, the rake task `uploads:ensure_correct_acl` should be used to update all uploads' secure status and their ACL on S3
For this to work we need to overwrite `db:rollback` in our Rakefile like
we do for migrate, so that it removes the load_config dependency. This
allows our custom migration paths to work.
