Wasn't planning to, but spent the day making git-annex not depend on the
|
||
|
|
MissingH library. This has been a long-term goal, as MissingH pulls in
|
||
|
|
several other libraries and is not modern or principled.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The first part was to using cryptonite for MD5 calculation. While
|
||
|
|
converting to the form git-annex uses to make hash directories involved
|
||
|
|
some math, this did make git-annex garbage-collect less, and
|
||
|
|
probably made it faster.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then I had to write my own progress meter display, since git-annex was
|
||
|
|
using MissingH's display. That was fairly simple (73 LoC), and let me
|
||
|
|
make it more efficient and tuned for the git-annex use case. As a bonus, it
|
||
|
|
got progress displays when transferring files of unknown sizes, which
|
||
|
|
wasn't done before.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
MissingH was handy training wheels when I was coming over from perl,
|
||
|
|
but it's been training wheels on some old cars in the middle of a
|
||
|
|
500 car train for a while, so glad that's over.
