Make displayname (users.conf) available in "access permission" lists

[gitblit]

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 364

Hi,
in users.conf for each user a property "displayName" is defined. Unfortunately this
displayName is NOT used in the "access permission" lists (web front end). Instead we
(LDAP-Import!) see a list of cryptic userids. This is EXTREMELY difficult to maintain.

Please define a property to make "displayname" available in those lists. Thanks in
advance!

Have you these directives into giblit.properties file?:
....
....
realm.ldap.accountPattern = (&(objectClass=person)(sAMAccountName=${username})) 
....
....
realm.ldap.displayName = displayName

I've implemented a fix for this behavior in this pull request https://github.com/gitblit/gitblit/pull/141

BR,

Alfred

Alfred's fix has been merged to master.  His fix is for the complaint: palettes (list<->list).
 This change does not affect the individual user permission dropdown list which is
a separate, complicated beast.
