The error message displayed used to only come from curl/wget and perhaps
was clearer than the one displayed now that http-client is used. In any
case, it does make sense to hide it because git-annex prints its own
warning message.

Only display the warning when the current branch has a tree that is not
the same as the tree in the export.
Note that it doesn't check to see if the current tree is
in incompleteExportedTreeish; it might be worth checking that and reminding
the user about an incomplete export, but when export tracking is not
configured, they are probably not in the right clone of the repository to
resolve the incomplete export.

Makes git annex whereis display the versionId urls.
And, when a s3 remote is enabled without creds, git-annex will use the
versionId urls to access its contents.
This commit was sponsored by Fernando Jimenez on Patreon.
Since the same key can be stored in a versioned S3 bucket multiple times
with different version IDs, this allows tracking them all. Not currently
needed, but if we ever want to drop from a versioned S3 bucket, we'll
need to know them all.

Actually very straightforward reuse of the metadata log file code.
Although I had to add a todo item as git-annex forget won't clean up
dead remote's metadata yet.
This would be worth adding to the external special remote interface
sometime. Have not opened a todo though, guess I'll wait until something
needs it.

Have to store the S3 object along with the version ID, so retrieval can
use the same object.
This commit was supported by the NSF-funded DataLad project.
Only done when versioning=yes is configured. It could always do it when
S3 sends back a version id, but there may be buckets that have
versioning enabled by accident, so it seemed better to honor the
configuration.
S3's docs say version IDs are "randomly generated", so presumably
storing the same content twice gets two different ones not the same one.
So I considered storing a list of version IDs for a key. That would
allow removing the key completely. But.. The way Logs.RemoteState works,
when there are multiple writers, the last writer wins. So storing a list
would need a different log format that merges, which seemed overkill to support
removing a key from an append-only remote.
Note that Logs.RemoteState for S3 is now dedicated to version IDs.
If something else needs to be stored, a new log will be needed to do it.

Make exporttree=yes remotes that are appendonly not be untrusted, and not force
verification of content, since the usual concerns about losing data when an
export is updated by someone else don't apply.
Note that all the remote operations on keys are left as usual for
appendonly export remotes, except for storing content.

Make `git annex export` check appendonly when removing a file from an

Last of the known v6 races.
This also makes git add of a pointer file populate it when its content
is present in the annex. Which makes sense to do, I think.
This commit was supported by the NSF-funded DataLad project.
Update pointer file next time reconcileStaged is run to recover from the
race.
Note that restagePointerFile causes git to run the clean filter,
and that will run reconcileStaged. So, normally by the time the git
annex get/drop command finishes, the race has already been dealt with.
It may be that, in some case, that won't happen and the race will be
dealt with at a later point. git-annex could run reconcileStaged at
shutdown if that becomes a problem.
This does not handle the situation where the git mv is committed before
git-annex gets a chance to run again. git commit does run the clean
filter, and that happens to re-inject the content if it was supposed to
be dropped but is still populated. But, the case where the file was
supposed to be gotten but is not populated is not handled yet.
This commit was supported by the NSF-funded DataLad project.
Check just before running update-index if the worktree file's content is
still the same, don't update it when it's been modified. This narrows
the race window a lot, from possibly minutes or hours, to seconds or
less.
(Use replaceFile so that the worktree update happens atomically,
allowing the InodeCache of the new worktree file to itself be gathered
w/o any other race.)
This doesn't eliminate the race; it can still occur in the window before
update-index runs. When annex.queue is large, a lot of files will be
statted by the checks, and so the window may still be large enough to be a
problem.
When only a few files are being processed, the window is as small as it
is in the race where a modification gets overwritten by git-annex when
it updates the worktree. Or maybe as small as whatever race git
checkout/pull/merge may have when the worktree gets modified during it.
Still, I've kept a todo about this race.
This commit was supported by the NSF-funded DataLad project.
Use git update-index --refresh, since it's a little bit more
efficient and the user can be told to run it if a locked index prevents
git-annex from running it.
This also fixes the problem where an annexed file was deleted in the index
and a get of another file that uses the same key caused the index update to
add back the deleted file. update-index will not add back the deleted file.
Documented in tips/unlocked_files.mdwn the gotcha that the index update
may conflict with other operations. I can't see any way to possibly avoid
that conflict.
One new todo about a race that causes a modification to be accidentially
staged.
Note that the assistant only flushes the git command queue when it
commits a modification. I have not tested the assistant with v6 unlocked
files, but assume most users of the assistant won't care if the index
shows a file as modified for a while.
This commit was supported by the NSF-funded DataLad project.
After updating the worktree for an add/drop, update git's index, so git
status will not show the files as modified.
What actually happens is that the index update removes the inode
information from the index. The next git status (or similar) run
then has to do some work. It runs the clean filter.
So, this depends on the clean filter being reasonably fast and on git
not leaking memory when running it. Both problems were fixed in
a96972015d, but only for git 2.5. Anyone
using an older git will see very expensive git status after an add/drop.
This uses the same git update-index queue as other parts of git-annex, so
the actual index update is fairly efficient. Of course, updating the index
does still have some overhead. The annex.queuesize config will control how
often the index gets updated when working on a lot of files.
This is an imperfect workaround... Added several todos about new
problems this workaround causes. Still, this seems a lot better than the
old behavior.
This commit was supported by the NSF-funded DataLad project.
v6 add: Take advantage of improved SIGPIPE handler in git 2.5 to speed up
the clean filter by not reading the file content from the pipe. This also
avoids git buffering the whole file content in memory.
When built with an older git, still consumes stdin. If built with a newer
git and used with an older one, it breaks, but that's acceptable --
checking the git version every time would make repeated smudge runs slow.

Added annex.commitmessage config that can specify a commit message for the

addurl: When security configuration prevents downloads with youtube-dl,
still check if the url is one that it supports, and fail downloading it,
instead of downloading the raw web page.
Security fix! Allowing any schemes, particularly file: and
possibly others like scp: allowed file exfiltration by anyone who had
write access to the git repository, since they could add an annexed file
using such an url, or using an url that redirected to such an url,
and wait for the victim to get it into their repository and send them a copy.
* Added annex.security.allowed-url-schemes setting, which defaults
to only allowing http and https URLs. Note especially that file:/
is no longer enabled by default.
* Removed annex.web-download-command, since its interface does not allow
supporting annex.security.allowed-url-schemes across redirects.
If you used this setting, you may want to instead use annex.web-options
to pass options to curl.
With annex.web-download-command removed, nearly all url accesses in
git-annex are made via Utility.Url via http-client or curl. http-client
only supports http and https, so no problem there.
(Disabling one and not the other is not implemented.)
Used curl --proto to limit the allowed url schemes.
Note that this will cause git annex fsck --from web to mark files using
a disallowed url scheme as not being present in the web. That seems
acceptable; fsck --from web also does that when a web server is not available.
youtube-dl already disabled file: itself (probably for similar
reasons). The scheme check was also added to youtube-dl urls for
completeness, although that check won't catch any redirects it might
follow. But youtube-dl goes off and does its own thing with other
protocols anyway, so that's fine.
Special remotes that support other domain-specific url schemes are not
affected by this change. In the bittorrent remote, aria2c can still
download magnet: links. The download of the .torrent file is
otherwise now limited by annex.security.allowed-url-schemes.
This does not address any external special remotes that might download
an url themselves. Current thinking is all external special remotes will
need to be audited for this problem, although many of them will use
http libraries that only support http and not curl's menagarie.
The related problem of accessing private localhost and LAN urls is not
addressed by this commit.

In keyUrls, the GitConfig is used only by annexLocations
to support configured Differences. Since such configurations affect all
clones of a repository, the local repo's GitConfig must have the same
information as the remote's GitConfig would have. So, used getGitConfig
to get the local GitConfig, which is cached and so available cheaply.
That actually fixed a bug noone had ever noticed: keyUrls is
used for remotes accessed over http. The full git config of such a
remote is normally not available, so the remoteGitConfig that keyUrls
used would not have the necessary information in it.
In copyFromRemoteCheap', it uses gitAnnexLocation,
which does need the GitConfig of the remote repo itself in order to
check if it's crippled, supports symlinks, etc. So, made the
State include that GitConfig, cached. The use of gitAnnexLocation is
within a (not $ Git.repoIsUrl repo) guard, so it's local, and so
its git config will always be read and available.
(Note that gitAnnexLocation in turn calls annexLocations, so the
Differences config it uses in this case comes from the remote repo's
GitConfig and not from the local repo's GitConfig. As explained above
this is ok since they must have the same value.)
Not very happy with this mess of different GitConfigs not type-safe and
some read only sometimes etc. Very hairy. Think I got it this change
right. Test suite passes..

Unfortunately one more use remains..
This should be just as fast as the other method. The remote's Git.Repo
has already had its config read, so Annex.new's call to Git.Config.read
is a noop.

Added some tweaks to make git-annex work in termux on Android. The regular
arm standalone tarball now works in termux.
I guess the test for "$base/bin/git" is not really necessary, since it
tests for git-annex. Since that gets deleted on android, removed that test.
These are pretty hackish hacks, especially adding it to PATH. The goal is
to make it work well enough out of the box on Android.

* For url downloads, git-annex now defaults to using a http library,
rather than wget or curl. But, if annex.web-options is set, it will
use curl. To use the .netrc file, run:
git config annex.web-options --netrc
* git-annex no longer uses wget (and wget is no longer shipped with
git-annex builds).
Note that curl is always run in silent mode, since the new API for
download has a MeterUpdate and doesn't make way for curl progress
output. It might be worth writing a parser for curl's progress output
to update the meter when using it, but I didn't bother with this edge
case for now.

Remote.S3 and Remote.Helper.Http both had similar code to sink a
http-conduit Response to a file; refactor out sinkResponseFile.
downloadC downloads an url to a file using http-conduit, and supports
resuming. Falls back to curl to handle urls that http-conduit does not
support. This is not used yet, but the goal is to replace download with
it.
git-annex.cabal: conduit-extra was not actually used for a long time,
remove the dep. conduit moves into the main dependency list, but since
http-conduit was already in there, and it depends on conduit, that's not
really adding a new build dep.

Enable HTTP connection reuse across multiple files, when git-annex
uses http-conduit. Before, a new Manager was created each time
Utility.Url used it. Now, a single Manager gets created the first time,
so connections are reused.
Doesn't help when external programs are used for url download,
but does speed up addurl --fast, fsck --from web, etc.
Testing fsck --fast --from web with 3 files, over high-latency
satellite internet, it sped up from 19.37s to 14.96s.

When resuming a download and not using a rolling checksummer like rsync,
the partial file we start with might contain garbage, in the case where a
file changed as it was being downloaded. So, disabling verification on
resumes risked a bad object being put into the annex.
Even downloads with rsync are currently affected. It didn't seem worth the
added complexity to special case those to prevent verification, especially
since git-annex is using rsync less often now.
This commit was sponsored by Brock Spratlen on Patreon.
P2P protocol version 1 adds VALID|INVALID after DATA; INVALID means the
file was detected to change content while it was being sent and so we
may not have received the valid content of the file.
Added new MustVerify constructor for Verification, which forces
verification even when annex.verify=false etc. This is used when INVALID
and in protocol version 0.
As well as changing git-annex-shell p2psdio, this makes git-annex tor
remotes always force verification, since they don't yet use protocol
version 1. Previously, annex.verify=false could skip verification when
using tor remotes, and let bad data into the repository.

When the assistant detects a network change, it
stops using old git-annex transferkeys processes.
So, no problem that old git-annex-shell p2pstdio
connections are cached; they won't be reused after
network change.
When git-annex-shell p2pstdio fails with 255, it's because the ssh
server is not reachable. Avoid running the fallback action in this case,
since it would just try a second time to connect, and presumably fail.
Note that the closed P2PSshConnection will not be stored in the pool,
so the next request tries again to connect. This is just the right
behavior; when the remote becomes reachable again, the same git-annex
process will start using it.

Unfortunately ReceiveMessage didn't handle unknown messages the way it
was documented to; client sending VERSION would cause the server to
return an ERROR and hang up. Fixed that, but old releases of git-annex
use the P2P protocol for tor and will still have that behavior.
So, version is not negotiated for Remote.P2P connections, only for
Remote.Git connections, which will support VERSION from their first
release. There will need to be a later flag day to change Remote.P2P;
left a commented out line that is the only thing that will need to be
changed then.
Version 1 of the P2P protocol is not implemented yet, but updated
the docs for the DATA change that will be allowed by that version.

Note that, due to not using rsync to transfer files to ssh remotes
any longer, permissions and other file metadata of annexed files
will no longer be preserved when copying them to ssh remotes.
Other remotes never supported preserving that information, so
this is not considered a regression. Added NEWS item about this.
Another significant side effect of this is that, even when rsync is run to
retrieve a file, its progress display will no longer be shown, and
instead the native git-annex progress display will appear. It would be
possible to use the rsync process display when rsync is used (old
git-annex-shell and also retrieval from a local repository), but it
would have complicated the code unncessarily, and been inconsistent
behavior.
(I'd been thinking for a while about eliminating the rsync progress
display, since it's got some annoying verbosities, including display of
the key and the "(xfr#1, to-chk=0/1)" bit and was already somewhat
inconsistent.)
retrieveKeyFileCheap still uses rsync, since that ensures that it gets
the actual file content from the remote. Using the P2P protocol would
use the local content, as long as the local and remote size are the
same.

Not yet used for everything else, but this is enough to

Some bugfixes included, which got it working. Also fallback to old

Not yet used by git-annex, but this will allow faster transfers etc than
using individual ssh connections and rsync.
Not called git-annex-shell p2p, because git-annex p2p does something
else and I don't want two subcommands with the same name between the two
for sanity reasons.

Renaming is not supported; it might be possible to use --fuzzy to get rsync
to notice the file is being renamed, but that is a bit ..fuzzy.
On the other hand, interrupted transfers of an exported file are resumed,
since rsync is great at that. Had to adjust the exporttree docs, which
said interrupted transfers would restart.
Note that remove no longer makes the empty directory dummy, instead
sending the top-level empty directory. This works just as well and I
noticed the dummy was unncessary when refactoring it into removeGeneric.
Verified that behavior of remove is not changed, and git annex
testremote does pass.
