Using Sets is the right thing; they have constant size lookup like my
SizeList, and logn insertation, which beats nub to death.
Runs faster than --fast mode did before, and gives accurate counts.
13 seconds total runtime with a warm cache in a repository with 40 thousand
keys.
find: Rather than only showing files whose contents are present, when used
with --exclude --copies or --in, displays all files that match the
specified conditions.
Note that this is a behavior change for find --exclude! Old behavior
can be gotten with find --in . --exclude=...
get, drop: Added --auto option, which decides whether to get/drop content
as needed to work toward the configured numcopies.
The problem with bundling it up in optimize was that I then found I wanted
to run an optmize that did not drop files, only got them. Considered adding
a --only-get switch to it, but that seemed wrong. Instead, let's make
existing subcommands optionally smarter.
Note that the only actual difference between drop and drop --auto is that
the latter does not even try to drop a file if it knows of not enough
copies, and does not print any error messages about files it was unable to
drop.
It might be nice to make get avoid asking git for attributes when not in
auto mode. For now it always asks for attributes.
This includes a generic JSONStream library built on top of Text.JSON
(somewhat hackishly).
It would be possible to stream out a single json document describing
all actions, but it's probably better for consumers if they can expect
one json document per line, so I did it that way instead.
Output from external programs used for transferring files is not
currently hidden when outputting json, which probably makes it not very
useful there. This may be dealt with if there is demand for json
output for --get or --move to be parsable.
The version, status, and find subcommands have hand-crafted output and
don't do json. The whereis subcommand needs to be modified to produce
useful json.
Backends are now only used to generate keys (and check them); they
are not arbitrary key-value stores for data, because it turned out such
a store is better modeled as a special remote. Updated docs to not
imply backends do more than they do now.
Sometimes I'm tempted to rename "backend" to "keytype" or something,
which would really be more clear. But it would be an annoying transition
for users, with annex.backends etc.
The tricky part about this is that to generate a key, the file must be
present already. Worked around by adding (back) an URL key type, which
is used for addurl --fast.
This allows eg, `git-annex -c annex.rsync-options=-6 get file`
The overridden git configs are not passed on to git plumbing commands
that are run. Perhaps someone will find a need to do that, but I don't yet
and it would require storing more state to know what config settings
have been overridden and need to be passed on.
get not honoring --from has surprised me a few times, so least surprise
suggests it should just behave like copy --from. This leaves the difference
between get and copy being that copy always requires the remote to copy
from, while get will decide whether to get a file from a key/value store or
a remote.
This takes advantage of the debug logging done by missingh, and I added
my own debug messages for executeFile calls. There are still some other
low-level ways git-annex runs stuff that are not shown by debugging,
but this gets most of it easily.
Add --fast flag, that can enable less expensive, but also less thurough versions of some commands.
* Add --fast flag, that can enable less expensive, but also less thurough
versions of some commands.
* fsck: In fast mode, avoid checking checksums.
* unused: In fast mode, just show all existing temp files as unused,
and avoid expensive scan for other unused content.
Still todo:
- add repos from uuid.log that were not directly found
- group repos into their respective hosts
- display inaccessible repos and broken remote connections in red
- anonymize the url display somewhat, so the maps can be shared
- use uuid info to tell when two apparently different repos are actually
the same repo accessed in different ways
* Improved temp file handling. Transfers of content can now be resumed
from temp files later; the resume does not have to be the immediate
next git-annex run.
* unused: Include partially transferred content in the list.
Moved away from a map of flags to storing config directly in the AnnexState
structure. Got rid of most accessor functions in Annex.
This allowed supporting multiple --exclude flags.
* fsck: Check if annex.numcopies is satisfied.
* fsck: Verify the sha1 of files when the SHA1 backend is used.
* fsck: Verify the size of files when the WORM backend is used.
* fsck: Allow specifying individual files to fsk if fscking everything
is not desired.
* fsck: Fix bug, introduced in 0.04, in detection of unused data.
