Including the file in the lines behaves better when limiting with --after,
since only files that changed in the time period are shown.
Still not fully happy with the line layout, but putting the +/- first
followed by the date seems a good change.
This needs to run git log on the location log files to get at all past
versions of the file, which tends to be a bit slow.
It would be possible to make a version optimised for showing the location
logs for every key. That would only need to run git log once, so would be
faster, but it would need to process an enormous amount of data, so
would not speed up the individual file case.
In the future it would be nice to support log --format. log --json also
doesn't work right yet.
Made --from and --to command-specific options.
Added generic storage for values of command-specific options,
which allows removing some of the special case fields in AnnexState.
(Also added generic storage for command-specific flags, although there are
not yet any.)
Note that this storage uses a Map, so repeatedly looking up the same value
is slightly more expensive than looking up an AnnexState field. But, the
value can be looked up once in the seek stage, transformed as necessary,
and passed in a closure to the start stage, and this avoids that overhead.
Still, I'm hesitant to use this for things like force or fast flags.
It's probably best to reserve it for flags that are only used by a few
commands, or options like --from and --to that it's important only be
allowed to be used with commands that implement them, to avoid user
confusion.
With --fast, unavailable local remotes are filtered out of the fast set.
This way, if there are local remotes, --fast always acts only on them,
and if none are mounted, acts on nothing. This consistency is better
than --fast acting on different remotes depending on what's mounted.
Some changes to make automated syncing nicer. Merge from both the remote's
$branch and its synced/$branch; either could have new changes. Create
synced/$branch on the remote when pushing.
This optimises away the need to run anything in some common cases.
It's particularly useful on push; no need to push if the tracking branch
we just pulled is the same as the branch we're going to push.
The other uses of it can all be simplified using Git.Ref.base,
Git.Ref.under, and show.
In some cases, describe was being used to shorten the branch name
unnecessarily, and I instead pass the fully qualified name to git.
git-annex normally only runs the branch update once per run, for speed, but
since this fetches new remote git-annex tracking branches, they need to be
merged in after that fetch. An earlier call to Remote.byName was causing
the update to run before the fetch sometimes, but it could have been
anything. Just force the update to happen in the right place.
A crash on parsing was fixed a while ago. This adds support for fully
correctly parsing multiline git config values, using git config --null.
Since git-annex-shell configlist uses normal git config output, I left in
support for that too; the two forms of config output can be easily
identified by the parser. Since configlist only prints the annex.uuid
config, there's no risk of multiline values there, so no need to change it.
Added files don't have to be committed before they can be unannexed.
unannex no longer commits existing staged changes
unannex of the last file in a directory now works, before it failed because
git rm deleted the directory out from under it,
Supporting multiple directory hash types will allow converting to a
different one, without a flag day.
gitAnnexLocation now checks which of the possible locations have a file.
This means more statting of files. Several places currently use
gitAnnexLocation and immediately check if the returned file exists;
those need to be optimised.
The only fully supported thing is to have the main repository on one disk,
and .git/annex on another. Only commands that move data in/out of the annex
will need to copy it across devices.
There is only partial support for putting arbitrary subdirectories of
.git/annex on different devices. For one thing, but this can require more
copies to be done. For example, when .git/annex/tmp is on one device, and
.git/annex/journal on another, every journal write involves a call to
mv(1). Also, there are a few places that make hard links between various
subdirectories of .git/annex with createLink, that are not handled.
In the common case without cross-device, the new moveFile is actually
faster than renameFile, avoiding an unncessary stat to check that a file
(not a directory) is being moved. Of course if a cross-device move is
needed, it is as slow as mv(1) of the data.
It would be nice if command-specific options were supported. The first
difficulty is that which command is being called is not known until after
getopt; but that could be worked around by finding the first non-dashed
parameter. Storing the settings without putting them in the annex monad is
the next difficulty; it could perhaps be handled by making the seek stage
pass applicable settings into the start stage (and from there on to perform
as needed). But that still leaves a problem, what data type to use to
represent the options between getopt and seek?
Left out the backend usage graph for now, and bad/temp directory sizes
are only displayed when present. Also, disk usage is returned as a string
with units, which I can see changing later.
In git, a Ref can be a Sha, or a Branch, or a Tag. I added type aliases for
those. Note that this does not prevent mixing up of eg, refs and branches
at the type level. Since git really doesn't care, except rare cases like
git update-ref, or git tag -d, that seems ok for now.
There's also a tree-ish, but let's just use Ref for it. A given Sha or Ref
may or may not be a tree-ish, depending on the object type, so there seems
no point in trying to represent it at the type level.
semitrusted uuids rarely are listed in trust.log, so a special case
is needed to get a list of them. Take the difference of all known uuids
with non-semitrusted uuids.
More accurately, it was supported already when map uses git-annex-shell,
but not when it does not.
Note that the user name cannot be shell escaped using git-annex's current
approach for shell escaping. I tried and some shells like dash cannot
cd ~'joey'. Rest of directory is still shell escaped, not for security but
in case a directory has a space or other weird character.
git-annex-shell inannex now returns always 0, 1, or 100 (the last when
it's unclear if content is currently in the index due to it currently being
moved or dropped).
(Actual locking code still not yet written.)
The lock will only persist during the perform stage, so the content must
be removed from the annex then, rather than in the cleanup stage.
(No lock is actually taken yet.)
Many functions took the repo as their first parameter. Changing it
consistently to be the last parameter allows doing some useful things with
currying, that reduce boilerplate.
In particular, g <- gitRepo is almost never needed now, instead
use inRepo to run an IO action in the repo, and fromRepo to get
a value from the repo.
This also provides more opportunities to use monadic and applicative
combinators.
Avoid ever using read to parse a non-haskell formatted input string.
show :: Key is arguably still show abuse, but displaying Keys as filenames
is just too useful to give up.
