annex.largefiles can be configured by git-annex config, to more easily set
a default that will also be used by clones, without needing to shoehorn the
expression into the gitattributes file. The git config and gitattributes
override that.
Whenever something is added to git-annex config, we have to consider what
happens if a user puts a purposfully bad value in there. Or, if a new
git-annex adds some new value that an old git-annex can't parse.
In this case, a global annex.largefiles that can't be parsed currently
makes an error be thrown. That might not be ideal, but the gitattribute
behaves the same, and is almost equally repo-global.
Performance notes:
git-annex add and addurl construct a matcher once
and uses it for every file, so the added time penalty for reading the global
config log is minor. If the gitattributes annex.largefiles were deprecated,
git-annex add would get around 2% faster (excluding hashing), because
looking that up for each file is not fast. So this new way of setting
it is progress toward speeding up add.
git-annex smudge does need to load the log every time. As well as checking
the git attribute. Not ideal. Setting annex.gitaddtoannex=false avoids
both overheads.
Remove dup definitions and just use the RawFilePath one. </> etc are
enough faster that it's probably faster than building a String directly,
although I have not benchmarked.
git-annex find is now RawFilePath end to end, no string conversions.
So is git-annex get when it does not need to get anything.
So this is a major milestone on optimisation.
Benchmarks indicate around 30% speedup in both commands.
Probably many other performance improvements. All or nearly all places
where a file is statted use RawFilePath now.
Adds a dependency on filepath-bytestring, an as yet unreleased fork of
filepath that operates on RawFilePath.
Git.Repo also changed to use RawFilePath for the path to the repo.
This does eliminate some RawFilePath -> FilePath -> RawFilePath
conversions. And filepath-bytestring's </> is probably faster.
But I don't expect a major performance improvement from this.
This is mostly groundwork for making Annex.Location use RawFilePath,
which will allow for a conversion-free pipleline.
The parser and looking up config keys in the map should both be faster
due to using ByteString.
I had hoped this would speed up startup time, but any improvement to
that was too small to measure. Seems worth keeping though.
Note that the parser breaks up the ByteString, but a config map ends up
pointing to the config as read, which is retained in memory until every
value from it is no longer used. This can change memory usage
patterns marginally, but won't affect git-annex.
Finally builds (oh the agoncy of making it build), but still very
unmergable, only Command.Find is included and lots of stuff is badly
hacked to make it compile.
Benchmarking vs master, this git-annex find is significantly faster!
Specifically:
num files old new speedup
48500 4.77 3.73 28%
12500 1.36 1.02 66%
20 0.075 0.074 0% (so startup time is unchanged)
That's without really finishing the optimization. Things still to do:
* Eliminate all the fromRawFilePath, toRawFilePath, encodeBS,
decodeBS conversions.
* Use versions of IO actions like getFileStatus that take a RawFilePath.
* Eliminate some Data.ByteString.Lazy.toStrict, which is a slow copy.
* Use ByteString for parsing git config to speed up startup.
It's likely several of those will speed up git-annex find further.
And other commands will certianly benefit even more.
This will speed up the common case where a Key is deserialized from
disk, but is then serialized to build eg, the path to the annex object.
Previously attempted in 4536c93bb2
and reverted in 96aba8eff7.
The problems mentioned in the latter commit are addressed now:
Read/Show of KeyData is backwards-compatible with Read/Show of Key from before
this change, so Types.Distribution will keep working.
The Eq instance is fixed.
Also, Key has smart constructors, avoiding needing to remember to update
the cached serialization.
Used git-annex benchmark:
find is 7% faster
whereis is 3% faster
get when all files are already present is 5% faster
Generally, the benchmarks are running 0.1 seconds faster per 2000 files,
on a ram disk in my laptop.
* git-lfs: The url provided to initremote/enableremote will now be
stored in the git-annex branch, allowing enableremote to be used without
an url. initremote --sameas can be used to add additional urls.
* git-lfs: When there's a git remote with an url that's known to be
used for git-lfs, automatically enable the special remote.
Reasons to do this include:
1. I've gotten pretty used to git-annex's own progress display, which is
used for all transfers over ssh (except to old git-annex-shell),
and for most special remote transfers. It's getting to seem weird to see
the rsync progress display instead.
2. When -J was used, the rsync output could not be shown, and so there was
no progress display. Now there will be.
Progress will also be displayed now when cp CoW is used. But I'd expect a CoW
copy to typically run so fast that the progress display will barely be
noticable.

Convert Utility.Url to return Either String so the error message can be
displated in the annex monad and so captured.
(When curl is used, its errors are still not caught.)
warningIO is not concurrent output safe, and it doesn't go to
--json-error-messages
There are a few more that would be too hard to remove, and there are also
several dozen direct prints to stderr still.
This solves the problem of sameas remotes trampling over per-remote
state. Used for:
* per-remote state, of course
* per-remote metadata, also of course
* per-remote content identifiers, because two remote implementations
could in theory generate the same content identifier for two different
peices of content
While chunk logs are per-remote data, they don't use this, because the
number and size of chunks stored is a common property across sameas
remotes.
External special remote had a complication, where it was theoretically
possible for a remote to send SETSTATE or GETSTATE during INITREMOTE or
EXPORTSUPPORTED. Since the uuid of the remote is typically generate in
Remote.setup, it would only be possible to pass a Maybe
RemoteStateHandle into it, and it would otherwise have to construct its
own. Rather than go that route, I decided to send an ERROR in this case.
It seems unlikely that any existing external special remote will be
affected. They would have to make up a git-annex key, and set state for
some reason during INITREMOTE. I can imagine such a hack, but it doesn't
seem worth complicating the code in such an ugly way to support it.
Unfortunately, both TestRemote and Annex.Import needed the Remote
to have a new field added that holds its RemoteStateHandle.
This is used by a special remote with sameas-uuid=
The remote's uuid is the sameas-uuid, but it needs to get
its RemoteConfig from the annex-config-uuid.
I found a way to avoid inheritance complicating anything outside of
Logs.Remote. It seems fine to require all inherited values to be
inherited and not set in the sameas remote's config. Since inherited
values will be used for stuff like encryption and perhaps chunking, which
control the actual content stored on the remote, it seems likely that
there will not be any reason to need them to vary between two remotes
that access the same underlying data store.
The newer version of containers is free; the minimum ghc version is
bundled with a newer version than that.
Initremote sets that, so after both initremote and enableremote,
the git config will be set.
Any remote that does not use Annex.SpecialRemote won't set
annex-config-uuid. But that's only Remote.Git, which doesn't use
RemoteConfig anyway.
This avoids some extra work, but I don't think it was possible for two ssh
endpoint discoveries run concurrently to both prompt for the ssh password;
Annex.Ssh itself deals with concurrency.
This is mostly groundwork for http password prompting.
tryGitConfigRead may run ensureInitialized first, but when checkuuid = false,
that is skipped. So, make sure it's run before all onLocal actions.
ensureInitialized is inexpensive, so the extra call by tryGitConfigRead
is not a big deal. But since it was easy to do, I made it only be run
once by all calls to onLocal.
A few calls to onLocal didn't call ensureInitialized before. Notably,
the checkPresent action didn't, and does now.
That means that there's a guarantee that any necessary repo upgrades
will be run before the checkPresent action runs in the repo. Which is
important especially for the direct mode conversion, because without
that upgrade, the checkPresent action would need to support direct mode
still. Now I can remove the last bits of direct mode support in
Annex.Content without worrying that it will break accessing remotes
that have not been upgraded.
This does necessarily mean that checkPresent needs to write to the disk
when performing such a repo upgrade. The other remote actions already
did, so retrieval from a readonly remote that needed to be upgraded would
fail. Having checkPresent also fail doesn't seem like a large reversion,
especially since it already failed in the default case when checkuuid = true.
Prompted by the test suite on windows failing to with "export foo failed"
and no information about what went wrong.
Note that only storeExportWithContentIdentifier has been converted.
storeExport still returns a Bool and so exceptions may be hidden.
However, storeExportWithContentIdentifier has many more failure modes,
since it needs to avoid overwriting modified files. So it's more
important it have better error display.
The test suite was intermittently failing with rsync complaining it
could not write to dest.

rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1207) [sender=3.1.3]
It seems that the first rsync actually transferred the file, but then for some
reason git-annex thinks it failed, so it retries. The second rsync then fails
because the first rsync copied the file mode over and so the file is not
writable now.
So, this fixes that problem, but leaves open the question of why git-annex
would think rsync failed when it wrote the file and didn't output any
error message. Possibly a bug in rsyncProgress that either hides an
error message, or somehow makes rsync unhappy?
Using Logs.RemoteState for this means that if the same key gets uploaded
twice to a git-lfs remote, but somehow has different content the two
times (eg it's an URL key with non-stable content), the sha256/size of
the newer content uploaded will overwrite what was remembered before. That
seems ok; it just means that git-annex will request the newer version of
the content when downloading from git-lfs.
It will remember the sha256 and size if both are not known, or if only
the sha256 is not known but the size is known, it only remembers the
sha256, to avoid wasting space on the size. I did not add special case
for when the sha256 is known and the size is not, because it's been a
long time since git-annex created SHA256 keys without a size.
(See doc/upgrades/SHA_size.mdwn)
The protocol design allows the server to respond with some other object;
if a server for some reason a server did that, it would not be right for
git-annex to download its content. I don't think it would be a security
hole, since git-annex is downloading a specific key and will verify the
key's content. Seems like a good idea to belt-and-suspenders test for
such a misuse of the protocol.
This is a special remote and a git remote at the same time; git can pull
and push to it and git-annex can use it as a special remote.
Remote.Git has to check if it's configured as a git-lfs special remote
and sets it up as one if so.
Object methods not implemented yet.
In 40ecf58d4b I changed the license of code I
wrote from GPL to AGPL. But, two files containing code I wrote combined
with code by others were updated to say their license is AGPL, while in
fact part of it was (the code I wrote) but part remained under the original
license (the code written by others).
Remote/Ddar.hs is now changed entirely back to GPL 3.
Annex/DirHashes.hs stays AGPL, but I broke out Utility/MD5.hs with the code
not written by me, and corrected its license statement to GPL-2, which
is the actual version of the GPL included with the code in its original
distribution at http://www.cs.ox.ac.uk/people/ian.lynagh/md5/
Improved probing when CoW copies can be made between files on the same
drive. Now supports CoW between BTRFS subvolumes. And, falls back to rsync
instead of using cp when CoW won't work, eg copies between repos on the
same EXT4 filesystem.
Rather than trying cp --reflink=always for each file copied to a remote,
it's tried once and if it fails it falls back to using rsync thereafter
for the lifetime of the Remote object. That avoids overhead of calling cp
which while small, will add up over a large number of files.

Avoid a delay at startup when concurrency is enabled and there are
rsync or gcrypt special remotes, which was caused by git-annex
opening a ssh connection to the remote too early.
sshOptions makes a connection to the ssh server if one is not already open,
when concurrency is enabled. Avoid doing that at startup, when the remote
list is being built, but the remote may not be used at all.
Instead, rsync/gcrypt now runs sshOptions once per ssh connection to the
server. This should not be significant overhead since Remote.Git already
has the same overhead (as do Bup and Ddar).
When a remote is configured to be readonly, don't allow changing what's
exported to it.
This was missed in the original export remote implementation, but it makes
sense for a readonly export remote to not be allowed to change.
* Added mimeencoding= term to annex.largefiles expressions.
This is probably mostly useful to match non-text files with eg
"mimeencoding=binary"
* git-annex matchexpression: Added --mimeencoding option.
As well as adding the necessary methods, a few other changes to the adb
remote:
* Use ".annextmp" extension for temp files, to avoid conflict with other
temp files.
* Stop using "echo $?" to get exit status of command inside adb.
There were two problems; first the "echo" just before it meant it was
always 0! And secondly, it seems kind of random on my phone whether it's
1 or 0, not dependant on whether the command seems to have succeeded.
Unfortunately, "port" has to be set by default, or the old git-annex
will crash when trying to enable the S3 remote.
So, when protocol=https is specified, it needs to override port=80,
since it may be a default setting.
protocol=https implies port=443 and
port=443 implies protocol=https
-- this was necessary because the existing configs set port=443, but
with a protocol setting, users will naturally want to use it, and then
there's no need for them to supply the default https port. So we keep
back-compat, add a nicer way to enable https, and also add support for
non-standard https ports.
This does not change the overall license of the git-annex program, which
was already AGPL due to a number of sources files being AGPL already.
Legally speaking, I'm adding a new license under which these files are
now available; I already released their current contents under the GPL
license. Now they're dual licensed GPL and AGPL. However, I intend
for all my future changes to these files to only be released under the
AGPL license, and I won't be tracking the dual licensing status, so I'm
simply changing the license statement to say it's AGPL.
(In some cases, others wrote parts of the code of a file and released it
under the GPL; but in all cases I have contributed a significant portion
of the code in each file and it's that code that is getting the AGPL
license; the GPL license of other contributors allows combining with
AGPL code.)
Avoid a warning message when renameExport is not supported, and just
fallback to deleting with a subsequent re-upload. Especially needed for
importtree remotes, where renameExport needs to be disabled.
This changes the external special remote protocol, but in a
backwards-compatible way. A reply of UNSUPPORTED-REQUEST to an older
version of git-annex will cause it to make renameExport return False.
This is not super efficient; it would be better to lock the database
once and build up a queue of changes and flush once.
But, storeExportWithContentIdentifier is likely going to be the really
expensive part, so let's do the simple thing and only optimise later if
needed.
git-annex: thread blocked indefinitely in an STM transaction
failed
git-annex: sqlite query crashed
CallStack (from HasCallStack):
error, called at ./Database/Handle.hs:98:42 in main:Database.Handle
failed
This needs further investigation.
Use same, simpler method to make only one thread open the export db as
is used for the ContentIdentifier db.
And, always update the export db once before using.
Had to add two more API calls to override export APIs that are not safe
for use in combination with import.
It's unfortunate that removeExportDirectory is documented to be allowed
to remove non-empty directories. I'm not entirely sure why it's that
way, my best guess is it was intended to make it easy to implement with
just rm -rf.
For now, it's only allowed when exporttree=yes is also set.
That simplified the implementation, but could later be changed if
there's a remote that makes sense to be an import but not an export.
However, it may work just as well to make a remote be readonly to
prevent export to it while still allowing import.
Not sure if my reasoning about the races really holds.
It would certianly be possible to better guard against races by using
Linux-specific renameat2 with RENAME_EXCHANGE or RENAME_NOREPLACE.
Or by using link and relying on it not overwriting existing files -- but
that would need a filesystem that supports hard links and directory can
be used in filesystems that don't.
This does not avoid all possible races, but it does avoid all likely
ones, and is demonstratably better than git's own handling of races
where files get modified at the same time as it's updating the working
tree.
The main thing this won't detect are not unlikely races where part
of a file gets changed while it's being copied and then the file is
restored to its original condition before the modification check.
No, it's more likely that the limitations of checking inode, size,
and mtime won't detect certian modifications, involving eg mmapped
files.
Made some api changes.
listImportableContents needs to provide the size
of the data, so the downloader can check disk free space.
retrieveExportWithContentIdentifier is passed the filepath to write to
Use temporary "CID" key during download of a ContentIdentifier from a
remote, so withTmp can be used and then move the content to the real key
once it's known.
Installing git-annex with stack rsync won't be available.
Also, using the git-annex installer with 64 bit git installs a non-working
rsync binary because it's linked with libraries provided by 32 bit git.
xporting files with '#' or '?' in their name won't work because urls get
truncated on those. Fail in a better way in this case, and avoid failing
when removing such files from the export, so after the user has renamed the
problem files the export will succeed.

Purifying exportActions will allow introspecting and modifying it,
which is needed to add progress bar display to it.
Only S3 and WebDAV ran an Annex action while constructing ExportActions.
There was a small performance gain from them doing that, since a
resource was able to be prepared and reused for multiple actions by
Command.Export.
As seen in commit 809cfbbd8a and
5d394023eb S3 and WebDAV actually create a
new handle for each access in normal, non-export use. It doesn't seem
worth making export use of them marginally more efficient than normal
use. It would be better to do that work upfront when constructing the
remote. Or perhaps use a MVar to cache a handle.

resourcePrepare does not cause the resource to only be prepared once.
The http manager should be reused, which does avoid http connection
overhead, but not because of the use of resourcePrepare.
I seem to have thought that a Preparer was only run once when a remote
is accessed multiple times, but that is not in fact the case. prepareS3Handle
is run once per access. So, there is no point to it.
That there is some duplicate work done on each access is now apparent.
Luckily, the http manager is reused, so only one http connection is
made. But the S3 creds are loaded repeatedly. Room for improvement here.

When key-based retrieval from a S3 remote with exporttree=yes
appendonly=yes fails, fall back to trying to retrieve from the exported
tree. This allows downloads of files that were exported to such a remote
before versioning was enabled on it.
This is useful at least for a transition for users who got into that
situation, so they can download content from their S3 remote. May want to
remove this in the future though, since normally trying to download the
second time is only extra work.

Like the earlier fixed one in Command.Export, it occurred when the same
tree was exported by multiple clones. Previous fix was incomplete since
several other places looked at the list of exported trees to detect when
there was an export conflict. Added a single unified function to avoid
missing any places it needed to be fixed.

Because when git-annex lacks S3 version IDs for files stored in the bucket,
deleting them would cause data loss.
Also because git-annex is not able to download unversioned objects from a bucket
when versioning=yes.
This also prevents setting versioning=no. While that would perhaps be
possible to do safely, it would add complexity, and would mean that if
the user accidentially did enableremote versioning=no, they would not be
able to undo it.

Needs not yet released version 0.22 of aws library; with older versions

* Switch to using .git/annex/othertmp for tmp files other than partial
downloads, and make stale files left in that directory when git-annex
is interrupted be cleaned up promptly by subsequent git-annex processes.
* The .git/annex/misctmp directory is no longer used and git-annex will
delete anything lingering in there after it's 1 week old.
Also, in Annex.Ingest, made the filename it uses in the tmp dir be
prefixed with "ingest-" to avoid potentially using a filename used by
some other code.
This reverts commit 4536c93bb2.
That broke Read/Show of a Key, and unfortunately Key is read in at least
one place; the GitAnnexDistribution data type.
It would be worth bringing this optimisation back, but it would need
either a custom Read/Show instance that preserves back-compat, or
wrapping Key in a data type that contains the serialization, or changing
how GitAnnexDistribution is serialized.
Also, the Eq instance would need to compare keys with and without a
cached seralization the same.
This will speed up the common case where a Key is deserialized from
disk, but is then serialized to build eg, the path to the annex object.
It means that every place a Key has any of its fields changed, the cache
has to be dropped. I've grepped and found them all. But, it would be
better to avoid that gotcha somehow..
What these generate is not really suitable to be used as a filename,
which is why keyFile and fileKey further escape it. These are just
serializing Keys.
Also removed a quickcheck test that was very unlikely to test anything
useful, since it relied on random chance creating something that looks
like a serialized key. The other test is sufficient for testing what
that was intended to test anyway.
This should make == comparison of UUIDs somewhat faster, and perhaps a
few other operations around maps of UUIDs etc.
FromUUID/ToUUID are used to convert String, which is still used for all
IO of UUIDs. Eventually the hope is those instances can be removed,
and all git-annex branch log files etc use ByteString throughout, for a
real speed improvement.
Note the use of fromRawFilePath / toRawFilePath -- while a UUID usually
contains only alphanumerics and so could be treated as ascii, it's
conceivable that some git-annex repository has been initialized using
a UUID that is not only not a canonical UUID, but contains high unicode
or invalid unicode. Using the filesystem encoding avoids any problems
with such a thing. However, a NUL in a UUID seems extremely unlikely,
so I didn't use encodeBS / decodeBS to avoid their extra overhead in
handling NULs.
The Read/Show instance for UUID luckily serializes the same way for
ByteString as it did for String.
downloadUrl uses meteredFile, which sets up one progress meter,
and Remote.Web also uses metered, so two progress meters are displayed for
the same download.
Reversion introduced with the http-conduit switch in
c34152777b -- I don't know why the extra
call to metered was added there.
When -J is not used, the extra progress meter didn't display,
but an extra blank line did get output, which is also fixed.

When public access is used for the remote, it complained that the user
needed to set creds to use it, which was just wrong.
When creds were being used, it fell back from trying to use the version ID
to just accessing the key in the bucket, which was ok for non-export
remotes, but wrong for buckets.
In both cases, display a hopefully useful warning.
This should only come up when an existing S3 remote has been exported
to, and then later versioning was enabled.
Note that it would perhaps be possible to fall back from trying to use
retrieveKeyFile when it fails and instead use retrieveKeyFileFromExport,
which may work when S3 version ID is missing. But there are problems
with that approach; how to tell when retrieveKeyFile has failed due to this
rather than a network problem etc? Anyway, that approach would only work
until the file in the export got overwritten, and then it would no
longer be accessible. And with versioning enabled, the user wants old
versions of objects to remain accessible, so it seems better to warn
about the problem as soon as possible, so they can go back and add S3
version IDs.

Removed undocumented special case in handling of a CHECKURL-MULTI response
with only a single file listed. Rather than ignoring the url that was in
the response, use it. This allows external special remotes that want to
provide some better url to do so, although I don't entirely agree with
using CHECKURL-MULTI to accomplish that. I'm more of the feeling that an
undocumented special case that throws data away is just not a good idea.
This could in theory break some external special remote program that relied
on the current behavior, but its seems unlikely that it would because such
a program must already handle the multiple url case, unless it only ever
provides a single url response to CHECKURL-MULTI.
Make addurl --file work with a single item CHECKURL-MULTI response.
It already did for external special remotes due to the special case,
but now it also will for builtin ones like the BitTorrent special remote.
