This was potentially a hole in the readonly mode armor even before my last
commit. If the user could push a git-annex branch to a repo, they could get
git-annex-shell to initialize the repo. After my last commit, the user
didn't even need to be allowed to push a branch to init the repo, so
this hole certianly needs to be closed now.
Now it suffices to run git remote add, followed by git-annex sync. Now the
remote is automatically initialized for use by git-annex, where before the
git-annex branch had to manually be pushed before using git-annex sync.
Note that this involved changes to git-annex-shell, so if the remote is
using an old version, the manual push is still needed.
Implementation required git-annex-shell be changed, so configlist can
autoinit a repository even when no git-annex branch has been pushed yet.
Unfortunate because we'll have to wait for it to get deployed to servers
before being able to rely on this change in the documentation.
Did consider making git-annex sync push the git-annex branch to repos that
didn't have a uuid, but this seemed difficult to do without complicating it
in messy ways.
It would be cleaner to split a command out from configlist to handle
the initialization. But this is difficult without sacrificing backwards
compatability, for users of old git-annex versions which would not use the
new command.
Note that I ran into a problem where parsing the global options looped
forever, eating memory. It was somehow caused by stacking
combineGlobalSetters inside a combineGlobalSetters. Maybe due to both
using "many"? Anyway, changed things to avoid that.
This is a work in progress. It compiles and is able to do basic command
dispatch, including git autocorrection, while using optparse-applicative
for the core commandline parsing.
* Many commands are temporarily disabled before conversion.
* Options are not wired in yet.
* cmdnorepo actions don't work yet.
Also, removed the [Command] list, which was only used in one place.
This fixes all instances of " \t" in the code base. Most common case
seems to be after a "where" line; probably vim copied the two space layout
of that line.
Done as a background task while listening to episode 2 of the Type Theory
podcast.
This will be used by the remote-daemon to quickly tell when changes have
been pushed from some other repository into a ssh remote.
Adjusted the remote-daemon protocol to communicate changed shas, rather
than git branch refs. This way, it can easily check if a sha is new.
