The

[[external special remote protocol|design/external_special_remote_protocol]]
|
||
|
|
had extensibility built into it for messages git-annex sends, but not
|
||
|
|
for messages that the remote sends back to git-annex. To fix this
|
||
|
|
asymmetry, I've added a new EXTENSIONS to the protocol, which can be used
|
||
|
|
to find out about what new protocol extensions are supported.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There was the possibility that adding that might break some external
|
||
|
|
special remote that hardcoded the intial protocol messages. So, I checked
|
||
|
|
all of them that I know of, and all were ok, except for older versions of
|
||
|
|
datalad, which we were able to deal with. If you have your own external
|
||
|
|
special remote implementation, now would be a good time to check it.
