prevent using git-remote-annex with unsuitable special remote configs I hope to support importtree=yes eventually, but it does not currently work. Added remote.<name>.allow-encrypted-gitrepo that needs to be set to allow using it with encrypted git repos. Note that even encryption=pubkey uses a cipher stored in the git repo to encrypt the keys stored in the remote. While it would be possible to not encrypt the GITBUNDLE and GITMANIFEST keys, and then allow using encryption=pubkey, it doesn't currently work, and that would be a complication that I doubt is worth it.

git-remote-annex will be a program that allows push/pull/clone of a git
repository to many types of git-annex special remote.

This is a redesign and reimplementation of git-remote-datalad-annex.
It will be a safer implementation, will support incremental pushes, and
will be available to users who don't use datalad.
preparing to merge git-remote-annex Update its todo with remaining items. Add changelog entry. Simplified internals document to no longer be notes to myself, but target users who want to understand how the data is stored and might want to extract these repos manually.

This is implememented and working. Remaining todo list for it:

git-remote-annex: Display full url when using remote with the shorthand url
2024-05-24 21:15:31 +00:00
* When git clone is used with an annex:: url that is for a directory
special remote and is missing directory=, for example, it does
not display any useful error message. git fetch does, but it seems
git clone eats git-remote-annex stderr.
update

* Cloning from an annex:: url with importtree=yes doesn't work
(with or without exporttree=yes). This is because the ContentIdentifier
improve recovery from interrupted push On push, first try to drop all outManifest keys listed in the current manifest file, which resumes from an interrupted push that didn't get a chance to delete those keys. The new manifest gets its outManifest populated with the keys that were in the old manifest, plus any of the keys that were unable to be dropped. Note that it would be possible for uploadManifest to skip dropping old keys at all. The old keys would get dropped on the next push. But it seems better to delete stuff immediately rather than waiting. And the extra work is limited to push and typically is small. A remote where dropKey always fails will result in an outManifest that grows longer and longer. It would be possible to check if the remote has appendonly = True and avoid populating the outManifest. Of course, an appendonly remote will grow with every git push anyway. And currently only Remote.GitLFS sets that, which can't be used as a git-remote-annex remote anyway.

db is not populated. It should be possible to work around this.

* datalad-annex supports cloning from the web special remote,
using an url that contains the result of pushing to eg, a directory
special remote.
`datalad-annex::https://example.com?type=web&url={noquery}`
Supporting something like this would be good.
