Quite a backlog developed in the couple of weeks I was concentrating on tor
|
||
|
|
support. I've taken a first pass through it and fixed the most pressing
|
||
|
|
issues now.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Most important was an ugly memory corruption problem in the GHC runtime
|
||
|
|
system that may have led to data corruption when using git-annex with Linux
|
||
|
|
kernels older than 4.5. All the Linux standalone builds of git-annex have
|
||
|
|
been updated to fix that issue.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Today dealt with several more things, including fixing a buggy timestamp
|
||
|
|
issue with `metadata --batch`, reverting the ssh ServerAliveInterval
|
||
|
|
setting (broke on too many systems with old ssh or complicated ssh
|
||
|
|
configurations), making batch input not be rejected when it can't be decoded
|
||
|
|
as UTF-8, and more.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Also, spent some time learning a little bit about Magic Wormhole and SPAKE,
|
||
|
|
as a way to exchange tor remote addresses. Using Magic Wormhole for that
|
||
|
|
seems like a reasonable plan. I did file a couple bugs on it which will
|
||
|
|
need to get fixed, and then using it is mostly a question of whether it's
|
||
|
|
easy enough to install that git-annex can rely on it.
