2019-10-16config: support "inboxdir" in addition to "mainrepo"
"mainrepo" ws a bad name and artifact from the early days when I intended for there to be a "spamrepo" (now just the ENV{PI_EMERGENCY} Maildir). With v2, "mainrepo" can be especially confusing, since v2 needs at least two git repositories (epoch + all.git) to function and we shouldn't confuse users by having them point to a git repository for v2. Much of our documentation already references "INBOX_DIR" for command-line arguments, so use "inboxdir" as the git-config(1)-friendly variant for that. "mainrepo" remains supported indefinitely for compatibility. Users may need to revert to old versions, or may be referring to old documentation and must not be forced to change config files to account for this change. So if you're using "mainrepo" today, I do NOT recommend changing it right away because other bugs can lurk. Link: https://public-inbox.org/meta/874l0ice8v.fsf@alyssa.is/
2019-10-15config: we always have {-section_order}
Rewrite a bunch of tests to use ordered input (emulating "git config -l" output) so we can always walk sections in the order they were given in the config file.

2019-05-15remove hard Devel::Peek dependency and lazy load for daemons
It's only useful for a corner case in long-running daemons when an admin decides to compact or vacuum a Xapian or SQLite DB. As a result, other scripts should run slightly faster. For instance, this saves about 80ms (2.710s => 2.630s) in t/mda.t on my remote workstation. While we're at it, make sure EvCleanup is properly require'd in Daemon.pm and HTTP.pm and document our use of Devel::Peek.

2017-01-07inbox: eliminate weaken usage entirely
We can do a better job initializing the data structure so we no longer need to rely on weak references to cleanup when we ditch the config on reload.
2017-01-07config: always use namespaced "publicinboxlimiter"
I'm not sure if we'll ever support sharing a config file with other tools, but maybe we will, and "limiter" is too generic.
2016-07-30t/config_limiter: fix check for identical Git object
If we completely undef an object, it is likely possible to have the same scalar address as the original object even if they are different. So keep the same object around and only force creation of the same reference. Tested on Perl 5.14.2 on Debian 7.x wheezy.
2016-07-09www: add configurable limiters
Currently only for git-http-backend use, this allows limiting the number of spawned processes per-inbox or by group, if there are multiple large inboxes amidst a sea of small ones. For example, a "big" repo limiter could be used for big inboxes: which would be shared between multiple repos: [limiter "big"] max = 4 [publicinbox "git"] address = git@vger.kernel.org mainrepo = /path/to/git.git ; shared limiter with giant: httpbackendmax = big [publicinbox "giant"] address = giant@project.org mainrepo = /path/to/giant.git ; shared limiter with git: httpbackendmax = big ; This is a tiny inbox, use the default limiter with 32 slots: [publicinbox "meta"] address = meta@public-inbox.org mainrepo = /path/to/meta.git
