New approach is to do it the expensive way for the first 100 paths
on the command line, but then assume the user doesn't care about order too
much and fall back to the cheap way that does not preserve order.
This will only ever result in a few more git-ls-files being run than were run
before. (Only 1 more is really needed, but around 10 more are currently run
for a max length command line.)
So, no need to worry about the extra zombie, or lost laziness due to concat.
Note that previously, `git annex find *.jpg` would find eg, foo/bar.jpg.
That was never intended or documented behavior, so I'm going to change it.
But this is potentially a behavior change if someone discovered that
behavior and relied on it despite it being accidental. Oh well.. can't make
an omlette w/o breaking some eggs.
This was introduced by commit 450ee53ab6
However, the same problem could affect other calls to programPath,
specifically some on the assistant. So, I fixed it at a deeper level.
In this situation, curl -o exits successfully without creating the output
file.
There was already a workaround for curl file:/// but I did not realize this
also affected regular url downloads.
To fix it, pre-create the destination file before starting curl.
Since we cannot always know the size of an url before trying to download
it, let's always do this.
Note that since curl is told -C -, we have to consider if this
makes curl try to do a ranged download, which might fail on some servers
where a regular download would have succeeded. My testing indicates
this isn't a problem; since the file is empty, curl seems to not try to
do a ranged download.
Original report: https://github.com/datalad/datalad/issues/79
Curl bug report: https://github.com/bagder/curl/issues/183
Useful for things like ipfs that don't use regular urls.
An external special remote can add a regular url to a key, and then
git-annex get will download it from the web. But for ipfs, we want to
instead tell git-annex that the uri uses OtherDownloader. Before this
change, the external special remote protocol lacked a way to do that.
Seen for example, a newly checked out git submodule. In this case,
.git/HEAD is a raw sha, rather than the usual reference to a ref.
Removed currentSha in passing, since it was a more roundabout way of
doing what headSha does, and headSha is more robust.
The fix is to stop using w82s, which does not properly reconstitute unicode
strings. Instrad, use utf8 bytestring to get the [Word8] to base64. This
passes unicode through perfectly, including any invalid filesystem encoded
characters.
Note that toB64 / fromB64 are also used for creds and cipher
embedding. It would be unfortunate if this change broke those uses.
For cipher embedding, note that ciphers can contain arbitrary bytes (should
really be using ByteString.Char8 there). Testing indicated it's not safe to
use the new fromB64 there; I think that characters were incorrectly
combined.
For credpair embedding, the username or password could contain unicode.
Before, that unicode would fail to round-trip through the b64.
So, I guess this is not going to break any embedded creds that worked
before.
This bug may have affected some creds before, and if so,
this change will not fix old ones, but should fix new ones at least.
Seems to work, but still experimental until it's been tested more.
When repositories are on filesystems not supporting symlinks, the .git dir
symlink trick cannot be used. Since we're going to be in direct mode
anyway, the .git dir symlink is not strictly needed.
However, I have not fixed the code that creates new annex symlinks to
handle this case -- the committed symlinks will be wrong.
git annex sync happens to currently fail in a submodule using direct mode,
because there's no HEAD ref. That also needs to be dealt with to get
this fully working in crippled filesystems.
Leaving http://github.com/datalad/datalad/issues/44 open until these issues
are dealt with.
Most of the time, there will be no discreprancy between programPath and
readProgramFile.
But, the programFile might have been written by an old version of git-annex
that is still installed, while a newer one is currently running. In this
case, we want to run the same one that's currently running.
This is especially important for things like the GIT_SSH=git-annex used for
ssh connection caching.
The only code that still uses readProgramFile directly is the upgrade code,
which needs to know where the standalone git-annex was installed, in order to
upgrade it.
See my comment in the bug report for analysis; basically this is safe
because it's a non-forced push, so won't lose history. Even if it was a
forced push or somehow races, things will eventually become consistent and
no git-annex branch info will be lost.
(This used to be done, but it forgot to do it since version 4.20130909.)
* sync: Use the ssh-options git config when doing git pull and push.
* remotedaemon: Use the ssh-options git config.
Note that the rename env var means that if a new git-annex calls an old one
for git-annex ssh, or a new calls an old, nothing much will go wrong;
just ssh caching won't happen.
Note that while the assistant detects changes made to remote names, I left
the commit message fixed rather than calculating it after every commit. It
doesn't seem worth the CPU to do the latter.
hGetSomeString reads one byte at a time, so unicode bytes are not composed.
The problem comes when outputting that to the console with hPut; that
tried to apply the handle's encoding, and so we get mojibake.
Instead, use ByteStrings, and only convert it to a string for parsing, not
for display.
Note that there are a couple of other things that use hGetSomeString,
which I've left as-is for now.
--deduplicate, --skip-duplicates, and --clean-duplicates still checksum the
file twice, the first time to determine if it's a duplicate. This cannot be
easily merged with the checksumming done to add the file, since the file
needs to be locked down before that second checksum is taken.
I hope this doesn't impact speed much -- it does have to pull out a value
from Annex state every time it accesses the branch now.
The test case I dropped has never caught any problems that I can remember,
and would have been rather difficult to convert.
* init: Repository tuning parameters can now be passed when initializing a
repository for the first time. For details, see

Avoid using fileSize which maxes out at just 2 gb on Windows.
Instead, use hFileSize, which doesn't have a bounded size.
Fixes support for files > 2 gb on Windows.
Note that the InodeCache code only needs to compare a file size,
so it doesn't matter it the file size wraps. So it has been
left as-is. This was necessary both to avoid invalidating existing inode
caches, and because the code passed FileStatus around and would have become
more expensive if it called getFileSize.

* info: Can now display info about a given uuid.
* Added to remote/uuid info: Count of the number of keys present
on the remote, and their size. This is rather expensive to calculate,
so comes last and --fast will disable it.
* Git remote info now includes the date of the last sync with the remote.
This allows the git repository to be moved while git-annex is running in
it, with fewer problems.
On Windows, this avoids some of the problems with the absurdly small
MAX_PATH of 260 bytes. In particular, git-annex repositories should
work in deeper/longer directory structures than before. See
http://git-annex.branchable.com/bugs/__34__git-annex:_direct:_1_failed__34___on_Windows/
There are several possible ways this change could break git-annex:
1. If it changes its working directory while it's running, that would
be Bad News. Good news everyone! git-annex never does so. It would also
break thread safety, so all such things were stomped out long ago.
2. parentDir "." -> "" which is not a valid path. I had to fix one
instace of this, and I should probably wipe all calls to parentDir out
of the git-annex code base; it was never a good idea.
3. Things like relPathDirToFile require absolute input paths,
and code assumes that the git repo path is absolute and passes it to it
as-is. In the case of relPathDirToFile, I converted it to not make
this assumption.
Currently, the test suite has 16 failures.
It's ok to probe every time for git-branch remove because that's
run quite rarely. For git-checkattr, it's run only once, when
starting the --batch mode, and so again the overhead is pretty minimal.
This leaves 2 places where the build version is still used.
git merge might be interactive or fail if one skews, and --no-gpg-sign
might not be pased, or might be passed to a git that doesn't understand it
if the other skews. It seems a little expensive to check the git version
each time these are used.
This doesn't seem likely to cause many problems, at least compared with
check-attr hanging on skew.
In the case where a remote of the bare repo has a fetch = configuration,
refs/remotes/origin/master will exist, and so the merge code path tried to
run in the bare repo.
Getting rid of build warning
warning: 'statfs64' is deprecated: first deprecated in OS X 10.6
[-Wdeprecated-declarations]
10.6 is much older than the oldest git-annex OSX port, so won't break
anything.
More aggressive rsync params fixup for windows. Param may contain a url, or
a file path, so check if it looks like a local file path and if so, fix it
up.
On windows only, rsyncUrlIsPath will treat c:foo as a path, rather than as
a rsyncurl starting with a host "c".
addurl behavior change: When downloading an url ending in .torrent,
it will download files from bittorrent, instead of the old behavior

I had hoped that the git devs could change git's handling of partial

This is not a complete fix. For one, git remote will happily go add a

When decryption fails, the repo must be using non-encrypted creds. Note
that creds are encrypted/decrypted using the encryption cipher which is
stored in the repo, so the decryption cannot fail due to missing gpg keys
etc. (For !shared encryptiom, the cipher is iteself encrypted using some
gpg key(s), and the decryption of the cipher happens earlier, so not
affected by this change.
Print a warning message for !shared repos, and continue on using the
cipher. Wrote a page explaining what users hit by this bug should do.

encryptionSetup must be called before setRemoteCredPair. Otherwise,
the RemoteConfig doesn't have the cipher in it, and so no cipher is used to
encrypt the embedded creds.
This is a security fix for non-shared encryption methods!
For encryption=shared, there's no security problem, just an
inconsistentency in whether the embedded creds are encrypted.
This is very important to get right, so used some types to help ensure that
setRemoteCredPair is only run after encryptionSetup. Note that the external
special remote bypasses the type safety, since creds can be set after the
initial remote config, if the external special remote program requests it.
Also note that IA remotes never use encryption, so encryptionSetup is not
run for them at all, and again the type safety is bypassed.
This leaves two open questions:
1. What to do about S3 and glacier remotes that were set up
using encryption=pubkey/hybrid with embedcreds?
Such a git repo has a security hole embedded in it, and this needs to be
communicated to the user. Is the changelog enough?
2. enableremote won't work in such a repo, because git-annex will
try to decrypt the embedded creds, which are not encrypted, so fails.
This needs to be dealt with, especially for ecryption=shared repos,
which are not really broken, just inconsistently configured.
Noticing that problem for encryption=shared is what led to commit
fbdeeeed5f, which tried to
fix the problem by not decrypting the embedded creds.

It seems that all other uses of <div .col-sm-9> occur outside of

This was introduced in the bootstrap 3 conversion.
This avoids cp -a overriding the default mode acls that the user might have
set in a git repository.
With GNU cp, this behavior change should not be a breaking change, because
git-anex also uses rsync sometimes in the same situation, and has only ever
preserved timestamps when using rsync.
Systems without GNU cp will no longer use cp -a, but instead just cp.
So, timestamps will no longer be preserved. Preserving timestamps when
copying between repos is not guaranteed anyway.
Closes: #729757
Old behavior was to take the first fuzzy match. Now, it checks the globa
git config, and runs the normal fuzzy handling, including failing to run a
semi-random command by default.
This does mean that eg, copying multiple files to a local remote will
become slightly slower, since it now restarts git-cat-file after each copy.
Should not be significant slowdown.
The reason git-cat-file is run on the remote at all is to update its
location log. In order to add an item to it, it needs to get the current
content of the log. Finding a way to avoid needing to do that would be a
good path to avoiding this slowdown if it does become a problem somehow.

(With the exception of daemon pid locking.)
This fixes at part of #758630. I reproduced the assistant locking eg, a
removable drive's annex journal lock file and forking a long-running
git-cat-file process that inherited that lock.
This did not affect Windows.
Considered doing a portable Utility.LockFile layer, but git-annex uses
posix locks in several special ways that have no direct Windows equivilant,
and it seems like it would mostly be a complication.

Note that this means getopt parsing is done even when not in a git
repository, even though currently cmdnorepo is not passed the results of
it. I'd like to move to cmdnorepo not doing its own ad-hoc option parsing,
so this is really a good thing. (But as long as eg, getOptionFlag needs an
Annex monad, it cannot be used in cmdnorepo handling.)
There is a potential for problems if any cmdnorepo branch of a command
handles options that are not in its regular getopt, but that would be a bug
anyway.
The hoary old HTTP library was only used when checking if an url exists,
when curl was not available. It had many problems, including not supporting
https at all.
Now, this is done using http-conduit for all urls that it supports. Falls
back to curl for any url that http-conduit doesn't like (probably ftp etc,
but could also be an url that its parser chokes on for whatever reason).
This adds a new dependency on http-conduit, but webdav support already
indirectly depended on that, and the s3-aws branch also uses it.
This opens up the possibility of using http-conduit for large file
downloads, but for now I've left it using wget/curl.

Since encryption=shared, the encryption key is stored in the git repo, so
there is no point at all in encrypting the creds, also stored in the git
repo with that key. So `initremote` doesn't. The creds are simply stored
base-64 encoded.
However, it then tried to always decrypt creds when encryption was used..
replaceFileOr was broken and ran the rollback action always.
Luckily, for replaceFile, the rollback action was safe to run, since it
just nuked a temp file that had already been moved into place.
However, when `git annex direct` used replaeFileOr, its rollback printed a
scary message:
/home/joey/tmp/rrrr/.git/annex/misctmp/tmp32268: rename: does not exist (No such file or directory)
There was actually no bad result though.
This speeds up the webdav special remote somewhat, since it often now
groups actions together in a single http connection when eg, storing a
file.
Legacy chunks are still supported, but have not been sped up.
This depends on a as-yet unreleased version of DAV.
This commit was sponsored by Thomas Hochstein.
Reusing http connection when operating on chunks is not done yet,
I had to submit some patches to DAV to support that. However, this is no
slower than old-style chunking was.
Note that it's a fileRetriever and a fileStorer, despite DAV using
bytestrings that would allow streaming. As a result, upload/download of
encrypted files is made a bit more expensive, since it spools them to temp
files. This was needed to get the progress meters to work.
There are probably ways to avoid that.. But it turns out that the current
DAV interface buffers the whole file content in memory, and I have
sent in a patch to DAV to improve its interfaces. Using the new interfaces,
it's certainly going to need to be a fileStorer, in order to read the file
size from the file (getting the size of a bytestring would destroy
laziness). It should be possible to use the new interface to make it be a
byteRetriever, so I'll change that when I get to it.

When files are stored using rsync, they have their write bit removed;
so does the directory they're put in. The local repo code did not turn
these bits back on, so failed to remove.
bup already splits files and does rolling deltas, so there is no reason to
use chunking here.
The new API made it easier to add progress support for storeKey, so that's
done. Unfortunately, bup-split still outputs its own progress with -q,
so a little ugly, but not too bad.
Made dropping remove the branch for an object, for two reasons:
1. The new API calls removeKey to roll back a storeKey when the content
changed unexpectedly.
2. So that testremote will be happy.
Also, fixed a bug that caused a crash when removing the branch for an
object in rollback.
This only performs some basic tests so far; no testing of chunking or
resuming. Also, the existing encryption type of the remote is used; it
would be good later to derive an encrypted and a non-encrypted version of
the remote and test them both.

For example, I had a copy to a remote that was failing for an unknown
reason. This let me see the exception was createDirectory: permission
denied; the underlying problem being a permissions issue.
Leverage the new chunked remotes to automatically resume downloads.
Sort of like rsync, although of course not as efficient since this
needs to start at a chunk boundry.
But, unlike rsync, this method will work for S3, WebDAV, external
special remotes, etc, etc. Only directory special remotes so far,
but many more soon!
This implementation will also properly handle starting a download
from one remote, interrupting, and resuming from another one, and so on.
(Resuming interrupted chunked uploads is similarly doable, although
slightly more expensive.)

The repair code assumed that if fsck found no broken objects, after
removing bad objects and possibly pulling replacements from remote, all was
well.. but this is not really true. Removing bad objects could leave some
branches broken. fsck doesn't report any missing objects in this case,
and its messages about broken branches are ignored by the fsck output
parser.
To deal with this, added a separate scan of all refs to find broken ones
and remove them when --forced. This will also let anyone who ran into this
bug run repair again to fix up the incomplete repair done before.

Catch an exception when ensureInitialized is run in a non-initted

The assistant already got this right, and like with the assistant, this
causes an implicit git-annex init of the local remote on the second sync,
once the git-annex branch has been pushed to it.

I think this is a git behavior change, but have not checked to be sure.
Conflict cruft used to look like $foo~HEAD, but now just $foo is left
behind as conflict cruft.
With test case.
Running `git annex direct` would cause loss of data, because the object
was moved to a temp file, which it then tried to replace the work tree file
with, and on failure, the temp file got deleted. Now it's instead moved
back into the annex object location.
Minor because normally only 1 FD is leaked per git-annex run. However,
the test suite leaks a few hundred FDs, and this broke it on the Debian
autobuilders, which seem to have a tigher than usual ulimit.
The leak was introduced by the lazy getDirectoryContents' that was
introduced in e6330988dd in order to scale to
millions of journal files -- if the lazy list was never fully consumed, the
directory handle did not get closed.
Instead, pull in openDirectory/readDirectory/closeDirectory code that I
already developed and submitted in a patch to the haskell directory library
earlier. Using this in journalDirty avoids the place that the lazy list
caused a problem. And using it in stageJournal eliminates the need for
getDirectoryContents'.
The getJournalFiles* functions are switched back to using the regular
strict getDirectoryContents. I'm not sure if those always consume the whole
list, so this avoids any leak. And the things that call those are things
like git annex unused, which also look at every file committed to the
git-annex branch, so would need more work to scale to insane numbers of
files anyway.
When one side is an annexed symlink, and the other side is a non-annexed symlink.
In this case, git-merge does not replace the annexed symlink in the work
tree with the non-annexed symlink, which is different from it's handling of
conflicts between annexed symlinks and regular files or directories.
So, while git-annex generated the correct merge commit, the work tree
didn't get updated to reflect it.

Support users who have set commit.gpgsign, by disabling gpg signatures for
git-annex branch commits and commits made by the assistant.
The thinking here is that a user sets commit.gpgsign intending the commits
that they manually initiate to be gpg signed. But not commits made in the
background, whether by a deamon or implicitly to the git-annex branch.
gpg signing those would be at best a waste of CPU and at worst would fail,
or flood the user with gpg passphrase prompts, or put their signature on
changes they did not directly do.

Reused the same feedtitle and itemtitle, feedauthor, itemauthor, etc names

Also added title and author, which are the item title/author if available,
falling back to the feed title/author. These are more likely to be common
metadata fields.
(There is a small bit of dupication here, but once git gets

it is used to generate year and month fields, same as is done when adding

I had thought that this was already done, but apparently not. There may
have been a reversion around version 5.20140606. Anna's laptop had its
desktop menu file etc having that version despite having upgraded git-annex

call to ensureInstalled.
