git-annex development has been more or less back to normal for the past
|
||
|
|
several weeks, including getting on top of most of the recent backlog.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Today I'm finishing up a project that has taken half the week. The internal
|
||
|
|
remote interface uses Bool extensively, and avoided throwing exceptions,
|
||
|
|
and so it was not uncommon for access to a remote to fail and no reason be
|
||
|
|
given. There have been a number of bugs about one thing or anther over the
|
||
|
|
years, which have been fixed on an ad hoc basis without addressing the
|
||
|
|
underlying problem. Now it's all been changed to throw exceptions, so the
|
||
|
|
failure reason will always be displayed. Some tens of thousands of lines of
|
||
|
|
diffs later, it's almost done.
