It used to not log to daemon.log when a repository was first created, and
when starting the webapp. Now both do. Redirecting stdout and stderr to the
log is tricky when starting the webapp, because the web browser may want to
communicate with the user. (Either a console web browser, or web.browser = echo)
This is handled by restoring the original fds when running the browser.
An earlier commit (mislabeled) made direct mode fsck check file checksums.
While it's expected for files to change at any time in direct mode, and so
fsck cannot complain every time there's a checksum mismatch, it is possible
for it to detect when a file does not *seem* to have changed, then check
its checksum, and so detect disk corruption or other problems.
This commit improves that, by checking a second time, if the checksum
fails, that the file is still not modified, before taking action. This way,
a direct mode file can be modified while being fscked.
Now there's a Config type, that's extracted from the git config at startup.
Note that laziness means that individual config values are only looked up
and parsed on demand, and so we get implicit memoization for all of them.
So this is not only prettier and more type safe, it optimises several
places that didn't have explicit memoization before. As well as getting rid
of the ugly explicit memoization code.
Not yet done for annex.<remote>.* configuration settings.
This avoids some small overhead by only running the check once per command;
it also ensures that, even if the command doesn't find anything to run on,
it still fails to run when in a bare repo.
* Bugfix: Remove leading \ from checksums output by sha*sum commands,
when the filename contains \ or a newline. Closes: #696384
* fsck: Still accept checksums with a leading \ as valid, now that
above bug is fixed.
* migrate: Remove leading \ in checksums
However, I don't yet have a reliable way to deal with files being modified
while they're being transferred. I have code that detects it on the sending
side, but the receiver is still free to move the wrong content into its
annex, and record that it has the content. So that's not acceptable, and
I'll need to work on it some more.
However, at this point I can use a direct mode repository as a remote and
transfer files from and to it.
* get/copy --auto: Transfer data even if it would exceed numcopies,
when preferred content settings want it.
* drop --auto: Fix dropping content when there are no preferred content
settings.
