Converted several threads to run in the monad.
Added a lot of useful combinators for working with the monad.
Now the monad includes the name of the thread.
Some debugging messages are disabled pending converting other threads.
I now have this topology working:
assistant ---> {bare repo, special remote} <--- assistant
And, I think, also this one:
+----------- bare repo --------+
v v
assistant ---> special remote <--- assistant
While before with assistant <---> assistant connections, both sides got
location info updated after a transfer, in this topology, the bare repo
*might* get its location info updated, but the other assistant has no way to
know that it did. And a special remote doesn't record location info,
so transfers to it won't propigate out location log changes at all.
So, for these to work, after a transfer succeeds, the git-annex branch
needs to be pushed. This is done by recording a synthetic commit has
occurred, which lets the pusher handle pushing out the change (which will
include actually committing any still journalled changes to the git-annex
branch).
Of course, this means rather a lot more syncing action than happened
before. At least the pusher bundles together very close together pushes,
somewhat. Currently it just waits 2 seconds between each push.
Hooked up everything that needs to notify on pushes. Note that
syncNewRemote does not notify. This is probably ok, and I'd need to thread
more state through to make it do so.
This is only set up to support a single push notification method; I didn't
use a NotificationBroadcaster. Partly because I don't yet know what info
about pushes needs to be communicated, so my data types are only
preliminary.
Currently only the web special remote is readonly, but it'd be possible to
also have readonly drives, or other remotes. These are handled in the
assistant by only downloading from them, and never trying to upload to
them.
I've convinced myself that nothing in DaemonStatus can deadlock,
as it always keepts the TMVar full. That was the only reason it was in the
Annex monad.
Added knownRemotes to DaemonStatus. This list is not entirely trivial to
calculate, and having it here should make it easier to add/remove remotes
on the fly later on. It did require plumbing the daemonstatus through to
some more threads.
SampleMVar won't work; between getting the current value and changing
it, another thread could made a change, which would get lost.
TMVar works well; this update situation is handled by atomic transactions.
