This adds a separate journal, which does not currently get committed to
an index, but is planned to be committed to .git/annex/index-private.
Changes that are regarding a UUID that is private will get written to
this journal, and so will not be published into the git-annex branch.
All log writing should have been made to indicate the UUID it's
regarding, though I've not verified this yet.
Currently, no UUIDs are treated as private yet, a way to configure that
is needed.
The implementation is careful to not add any additional IO work when
privateUUIDsKnown is False. It will skip looking at the private journal
at all. So this should be free, or nearly so, unless the feature is
used. When it is used, all branch reads will be about twice as expensive.
It is very lucky -- or very prudent design -- that Annex.Branch.change
and maybeChange are the only ways to change a file on the branch,
and Annex.Branch.set is only internal use. That let Annex.Branch.get
always yield any private information that has been recorded, without
the risk that Annex.Branch.set might be called, with a non-private UUID,
and end up leaking the private information into the git-annex branch.
And, this relies on the way git-annex union merges the git-annex branch.
When reading a file, there can be a public and a private version, and
they are just concacenated together. That will be handled the same as if
there were two diverged git-annex branches that got union merged.
All callers adjusted to update it themselves.
In Command.ReKey, and Command.SetKey, the cleanup action already did,
so it was updating the log twice before.
This fixes a bug when annex.stalldetection is set, as now
Command.Transferrer can skip updating the location log, and let it be
updated by the calling process.
Eliminate a zombie that was only cleaned up by the later zombie cleanup
code.
This is still not ideal, it would be cleaner if it used conduit or
something, and if the thread gets killed before waiting, it won't stop
the process.
Only remaining zombies are in CmdLine.Seek
Fix support for repositories tuned with annex.tune.branchhash1=true,
including --all not working and git-annex log not displaying anything for
annexed files.
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 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.)
Most of the individual logs are not converted yet, only presense logs
have an efficient ByteString Builder implemented so far. The rest
convert to and from String.
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.
This leaves git annex unused --from remote still using loggedKeysFor
and buffering more than ought to be necessary, but I can't see a way to
improve that.
In Annex.Branch.branch, the (++) was killing laziness.
Rewrote so it streams lazily.
filterM also kills laziness, so made loggedKeys use a Unchecked type,
and check if the key is dead in the seek loop.
Note that loggedKeysFor still buffers, so git-annex info <remote> and
git-annex unused --from remote still use more memory than necessary.
Also removed some unused functions from Annex.Journal.
Can be used to override the default timestamps used in log files in the
git-annex branch. This is a dangerous environment variable; use with
caution.
Note that this only affects writing to the logs on the git-annex branch.
It is not used for metadata in git commits (other env vars can be set for
that).
There are many other places where timestamps are still used, that don't
get committed to git, but do touch disk. Including regular timestamps
of files, and timestamps embedded in some files in .git/annex/, including
the last fsck timestamp and timestamps in transfer log files.
A good way to find such things in git-annex is to get for getPOSIXTime and
getCurrentTime, although some of the results are of course false positives
that never hit disk (unless git-annex gets swapped out..)
So this commit does NOT necessarily make git-annex comply with some HIPPA
privacy regulations; it's up to the user to determine if they can use it in
a way compliant with such regulations.
Benchmarking: It takes 0.00114 milliseconds to call getEnv
"GIT_ANNEX_VECTOR_CLOCK" when that env var is not set. So, 100 thousand log
files can be written with an added overhead of only 0.114 seconds. That
should be by far swamped by the actual overhead of writing the log files
and making the commit containing them.

fsck already special-cased dead keys to make --all not report errors with
them, and it makes sense to also expand that to whereis. I think it makes
sense for dead keys to be skipped by all uses of --all, so mistakes can be
completely forgotten about and not come back to haunt us.
The speed impact of testing if the key is dead is negligible for fsck and
whereis, since they use the location log anyway and it gets cached.
This does slow down a few commands that support --all, in particular
metadata --all runs around 2x as slow. I don't think metadata
--all is often used though. It might slow down copy/move/mirror
--all and get --all.
log --all is not affected (does not use the normal --all machinery).
Dead keys will still be processed by --incomplete, --branch,
--failed, and --key. Although it would be unlikely for a dead key to
ave in incomplete or failed transfer. It seems to make perfect sense for
--branch to process keys on the branch, even if dead.
(fsck's special-casing of dead keys was left in, so if one of these options
causes a dead key to be fscked, there will be a nice message.)

Implemented with no additional overhead of compares etc.
This is safe to do for presence logs because of their locality of change;
a given repo's presence logs are only ever changed in that repo, or in a
repo that has just been actively changing the content of that repo.
So, we don't need to worry about a split-brain situation where there'd
be disagreement about the location of a key in a repo. And so, it's ok to
not update the timestamp when that's the only change that would be made
due to logging presence info.
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.
Having one module that knows about all the filenames used on the branch
allows working back from an arbitrary filename to enough information about
it to implement dropping dead remotes and doing other log file compacting
as part of a forget transition.
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.
Checks location log information, and file contents.
Does not check that numcopies is satisfied, as .gitattributes information
about numcopies is not available in a bare repository. In practice, that
should not be a problem, since fsck is also run in a checkout and will
check numcopies there.
