AttributeError: 'FakeRequest' object has no attribute 'authname'

[Steffen Hoffmann]

This was reported on 10-Apr-2014 by Paul Tobias via ​th-users mailing list, but appeared with rather big delay only today. It was rather easy to track it down to the new tag change recording, that requires evaluation of req.authname, which is not take care for in trachacks.util.FakeRequest.

The trivial fix - including excessive white-space cleanup - is straight-forward:

trachacksplugin/0.11/trachacks/util.py

 class FakeRequest(object):
-    def __init__(self, env, authname = 'anonymous'):

+        self.authname = authname
         self.perm = PermissionCache(env, authname)

Fixed an AttributeError exception in TracHacksHtPasswdStore.save_changes (IAccountChangeListener implementation) due to missing authname attribute of FakeRequest class. Refs #11698.

TagsPlugin 0.7 requires an authname attribute on the Request object in order to record the tags change history. Bumped TracTags requirement from 0.7dev to 0.7.
