vcs: tweak how revisions and repo names are shown in error messages Decode bytes to str, and show repo name instead of repr or full server file system path. In some places, it will only report the "basename" of the repository, without any "group names" that also would be nice to have. The easy alternative would be to show the full file system path ... but it would be unfortunate to leak absolute server side paths to end users.

.. _backup:

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================


Settings
--------

Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.


Whoosh index
------------

The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located


Database
--------

When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.

A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
