The newest version of git refuses to work on repositories not owned by
the current user. This leads to issues with the /api/scmdiff endpoint:
May 27 11:16:05 myhydra hydra-server[923698]: fatal: unsafe repository ('/var/lib/hydra/scm/git/57ea036ec7ecd85c8dd085e02ecc6f12dd5c079a6203d16aea49f586cadfb2be' is owned by someone else)

I used the same solution that was used in NixOS/nix#6440.
Fixes#1214
To quote the function's comment:
Awful hack to handle timeouts in SQLite: just retry the transaction.
DBD::SQLite *has* a 30 second retry window, but apparently it
doesn't work.
Since SQLite is now dropped entirely, this wrapper can be removed
completely.
This attribute allows to know if an error occurred or not: when an
error occurs, errormsg is not an empty string. Note we can not use the
errormsg attribute because it can be arbitrarily long and is excluded
from the jobset API response.
This adds the following (pre-existing) attributes to the jobset response:
- nrtotal
- lastcheckedtime
- starttime
- checkinterval
- triggertime
- fetcherrormsg
- errortime
Without this, if (failed or aborted) derivations have been
garbage-collected, there is no way to restart them, which is very
annoying. Now we set a forceEval flag in the jobset to cause it to be
re-evaluated even if none of the inputs have changed.
This removes the "busy", "locker" and "logfile" columns, which are no
longer used by the queue runner. The "Running builds" page now only
shows builds that have an active build step.
The catalyst-action-rest branch from shlevy/hydra was an exploration of
using Catalyst::Action::REST to create a JSON API for hydra. This commit
merges in the best bits from that experiment, with the goal that further
API endpoints can be added incrementally.
In addition to migrating more endpoints, there is potential for
improvement in what's already been done:
* The web interface can be updated to use the same non-GET endpoints as
the JSON interface (using x-tunneled-method) instead of having a
separate endpoint
* The web rendering should use the $c->stash->{resource} data structure
where applicable rather than putting the same data in two places in
the stash
* Which columns to render for each endpoint is a completely debatable
question
* Hydra::Component::ToJSON should turn has_many relations that have
strings as their primary keys into objects instead of arrays

Previously, for scheduled builds, "timestamp" contained the time the
build was added to the queue, while for finished builds, it was the
time the build finished. Now it's always the former.
You can use the URL
http://<hydra-server>/api/push-github
as GitHub's WebHook URL. Hydra will automatically trigger an
evaluation of all affected jobsets.
External machines can now notify Hydra that it should check a
repository by sending a GET or PUSH request to /api/push, providing a
list of jobsets to be checked and/or a list of repository URLs. In
the latter case, all jobsets that have any of the specified
repositories as an input will be checked.
For instance, you can configure GitHub or BitBucket to send a request
to the URL
http://hydra.example.org/api/push?repos=git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git
to trigger evaluation of all jobsets that have
git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git as an input, or to the URL
http://hydra.example.org/api/push?jobsets=patchelf:trunk,nixpkgs:trunk
to trigger evaluation of just the specified jobsets.
