git-annex 6.20180316 released with [[!toggle text="these changes"]]
|
||
|
|
[[!toggleable text="""
|
||
|
|
* New protocol for communicating with git-annex-shell increases speed
|
||
|
|
of operations involving ssh remotes. When not transferring large files,
|
||
|
|
git-annex is between 200% and 400% faster using the new protocol,
|
||
|
|
and it's just as fast as before when transferring large files.
|
||
|
|
(When the remote has an old git-annex-shell, git-annex falls back
|
||
|
|
to the old slower code. This fallback is planned to be removed
|
||
|
|
after 5 years or so.)
|
||
|
|
* Note that, due to not using rsync to transfer files over ssh
|
||
|
|
any longer, permissions and other file metadata of annexed files
|
||
|
|
will no longer be preserved when copying them to and from ssh remotes.
|
||
|
|
Other remotes never supported preserving that information, so
|
||
|
|
this is not considered a regression.
|
||
|
|
* Fix data loss bug in content locking over tor, when the remote
|
||
|
|
repository is in direct mode, it neglected to check that the content
|
||
|
|
was actually present when locking it. This could cause git annex drop
|
||
|
|
to remove the only copy of a file when it thought the tor remote had
|
||
|
|
a copy.
|
||
|
|
* Fix data loss bug when the local repository uses direct mode, and a
|
||
|
|
locally modified file is dropped from a remote repsitory. The bug
|
||
|
|
caused the modified file to be counted as a copy of the original file.
|
||
|
|
(This is not a severe bug because in such a situation, dropping
|
||
|
|
from the remote and then modifying the file is allowed and has the same
|
||
|
|
end result.)
|
||
|
|
* Some downloads will be verified, even when annex.verify=false.
|
||
|
|
This is done in some edge cases where there's a likelyhood than an
|
||
|
|
object was downloaded incorrectly.
|
||
|
|
* Support exporttree=yes for rsync special remotes.
|
||
|
|
* Added backends for the BLAKE2 family of hashes, when built with
|
||
|
|
a new enough version of cryptonite.
|
||
|
|
* Improve SHA*E extension extraction code to not treat parts of the
|
||
|
|
filename that contain punctuation or other non-alphanumeric characters
|
||
|
|
as extensions. Before, such characters were filtered out.
|
||
|
|
* Better ssh connection warmup when using -J for concurrency.
|
||
|
|
Avoids ugly messages when forced ssh command is not git-annex-shell.
|
||
|
|
* Fix race condition in ssh warmup that caused git-annex to get
|
||
|
|
stuck and never process some files when run with high levels of
|
||
|
|
concurrency.
|
||
|
|
* Fix reversion introduced in 6.20171214 that caused concurrent
|
||
|
|
transfers to incorrectly fail with "transfer already in progress".
|
||
|
|
* Note that Remote/Git.hs now contains AGPL licensed code,
|
||
|
|
thus the license of git-annex as a whole is AGPL. This was already
|
||
|
|
the case when git-annex was built with the webapp enabled.
|
||
|
|
* Include amount of data transferred in progress display.
|
||
|
|
* Dial back optimisation when building on arm, which prevents
|
||
|
|
ghc and llc from running out of memory when optimising some files."""]]
