Convert Utility.Url to return Either String so the error message can be
displated in the annex monad and so captured.
(When curl is used, its errors are still not caught.)
Rescued from commit 11d6e2e260 which removed
db benchmarks in favor of benchmarking arbitrary git-annex commands. Which
is nice and general, but microbenchmarks are useful too.
Added annex.gitaddtoannex configuration. Setting it to false prevents
git add from usually adding files to the annex.
(Unless the file was annexed before, or a renamed annexed file is detected.)
Currently left at true; some users are encouraging it be set to false.
Renamed unlocked files are now detected, and will always be
annexed, unless annex.largefiles disallows it.
This allows for git add's behavior to later be changed to otherwise
not annex files (whether by default or as a config option), without
worrying about the rename case.
This is not a major behavior change; annexing is still the default. But
there is one case where the behavior is changed, I think for the better:
touch f
git -c annex.largefiles=nothing add f
git add bigfile
git commit -m ...
mv bigfile f
git add f
Before, git-annex would see that f was previously not annexed,
and so the renamed bigfile content gets added to git. Now, it notices
that the inode is the one that bigfile used, and so it annexes it.
This potentially slows down git add a lot in some repositories because
of the poor performance of isInodeKnown when there are a lot of unlocked
files. Configuring annex.largefiles avoids the speed hit.
This solves the problem of sameas remotes trampling over per-remote
state. Used for:
* per-remote state, of course
* per-remote metadata, also of course
* per-remote content identifiers, because two remote implementations
could in theory generate the same content identifier for two different
peices of content
While chunk logs are per-remote data, they don't use this, because the
number and size of chunks stored is a common property across sameas
remotes.
External special remote had a complication, where it was theoretically
possible for a remote to send SETSTATE or GETSTATE during INITREMOTE or
EXPORTSUPPORTED. Since the uuid of the remote is typically generate in
Remote.setup, it would only be possible to pass a Maybe
RemoteStateHandle into it, and it would otherwise have to construct its
own. Rather than go that route, I decided to send an ERROR in this case.
It seems unlikely that any existing external special remote will be
affected. They would have to make up a git-annex key, and set state for
some reason during INITREMOTE. I can imagine such a hack, but it doesn't
seem worth complicating the code in such an ugly way to support it.
Unfortunately, both TestRemote and Annex.Import needed the Remote
to have a new field added that holds its RemoteStateHandle.
initremote --sameas=remotename sets sameas-name and sameas-uuid
Using sameas-name rather than name prevents old git-annex initremote
from enabling a sameas remote by name, since it would not handle it
correctly.
Straightforward, except for the issue of how to reverse LockAdjustment.
With --unlock, a commit that modifies/adds unlocked files gets reverse
adjusted to use locked files. That's fairly reasonable, I think.
But reversing --lock by unlocking all modified files feels wrong. Maybe
that's just because repositories typically seem to still have mostly
locked files in them (unless one is in an adjusted unlocked branch of
course!)
It may be that eventually how to reverse both will need to be configurable,
I don't know.
The code is only needed because for a long time, git-annex didn't
install hooks in repos on crippled filesystems. Now it does, and they
work at least on FAT (where all files are executable) and Windows.
It would be possible to remove this code in v8 simply by re-installing
the hooks.
Can be set to false to prevent any automatic repository upgrades.
Also, removed direct mode specific upgrade code in Annex.Init, and made
needsUpgrade always include the name/path of the repo, so if
there's a problem it's clear what repo has the problem.
And, made needsUpgrade catch any exceptions that might occur during the
upgrade, so it can display a more useful error message than just the
exception.
Whether or not there's a false index, it can't Restage here.
When there's a false index, restaging would alter it and not the real
index, but it fails anyway because that index is locked.
When there's not a false index, the index is locked, and so restaging
can't alter it.
No longer used. The only possible user of it would be code in
Upgrade.V5, so I verified that the parts of Annex.Content it used were
not used to manipulate direct mode files.
* Automatically convert direct mode repositories to v7 with adjusted
unlocked branches and set annex.thin.
* init: When run on a crippled filesystem with --version=5,
will error out, since version 7 is needed for adjusted unlocked branch.
* direct: This command always errors out as direct mode is no longer
supported.
* indirect: This command has become a deprecated noop.
* proxy: This command is deprecated because it was only needed in direct
mode. (But it continues to work.)
Also removed mentions of direct mode throughough the documentation.
I have not removed all the direct mode code yet.
When file matching options are specified when getting info of
something other than a directory, they won't have any effect, so error out
to avoid confusion.

* merge: When run with a branch parameter, merges from that branch.
This is especially useful when using an adjusted branch, because
it applies the same adjustment to the branch before merging it.

No behavior changes, but this shows everywhere that a progress meter
could be displayed when hashing a file to add to the annex.
Many of the places don't make sense to display a progress meter though,
eg when importing the copy of the file probably swamps the hashing of
the file.
This means that Command.Move and Command.Get don't need to
manually set the stage, and is a lot cleaner conceptually.
Also, this makes Command.Sync.syncFile use the worker pool better.
In the scenario where it first downloads content and then uploads it to
some other remotes, it will start in TransferStage, then enter VerifyStage
and then go back to TransferStage for each transfer to the remotes.
Before, it entered CleanupStage after the download, and stayed in it for
the upload, so too many transfer jobs could run at the same time.
Note that, in Remote.Git, it uses runTransfer and also verifyKeyContent
inside onLocal. That has a Annex state for the remote, with no worker pool.
So the resulting calls to enteringStage won't block in there.
While Remote.Git.copyToRemote does do checksum verification, I
realized that should not use a verification slot in the WorkerPool
to do it. Because, it's reading back from eg, a removable disk to checksum.
That will contend with other writes to that disk. It's best to treat
that checksum verification as just part of the transer. So, removed the todo
item about that, as there's nothing needing to be done.
Rather than limiting it to PerformStage and CleanupStage, this opens it
up so any number of stages can be added as needed by commands.
Each concurrent command has a set of stages that it uses, and only
transitions between those can block waiting for a free slot in the
worker pool. Calling enteringStage for some other stage does not block,
and has very little overhead.
Note that while before the Annex state was duplicated on the first call
to commandAction, this now happens earlier, in startConcurrency.
That means that seek stage actions should that use startConcurrency
and then modify Annex state won't modify the state of worker threads
they then start. I audited all of them, and only Command.Seek
did so; prepMerge changes the working directory and so has to come
before startConcurrency.
Also, the remote list is built before duplicating the state, which means
that it gets built earlier now than it used to. This would only have an
effect of making commands that end up not needing to perform any actions
unncessary build the remote list (only when they're run with concurrency
enable), but that's a minor overhead compared to commands seeking
through the work tree and determining they don't need to do anything.
get, move, copy, sync: When -J or annex.jobs has enabled concurrency,
checksum verification uses a separate job pool than is used for
downloads, to keep bandwidth saturated.
Not yet done for upload checksum verification, but that only affects
remotes on local disks.
Fixes the last wart in the StartMessage transition. A few commands
include other CommandStart actions that generate output, and
do not themselves need to display a start/end message.
The hoped for optimisation of CommandStart with -J did not materialize.
In fact, not runnign CommandStart in parallel is slower than -J3.
So, CommandStart are still run in parallel.
(The actual bad performance I've been seeing with -J in my big repo
has to do with building the remoteList.)
But, this is still progress toward making -J faster, because it gets rid
of the onlyActionOn roadblock in the way of making CommandCleanup jobs
run separate from CommandPerform jobs.
Added OnlyActionOn constructor for ActionItem which fixes the
onlyActionOn breakage in the last commit.
Made CustomOutput include an ActionItem, so even things using it can
specify OnlyActionOn.
In Command.Move and Command.Sync, there were CommandStarts that used
includeCommandAction, so output messages, which is no longer allowed.
Fixed by using startingCustomOutput, but that's still not quite right,
since it prevents message display for the includeCommandAction run
inside it too.
The goal is to be able to run CommandStart in the main thread when -J is
used, rather than unncessarily passing it off to a worker thread, which
incurs overhead that is signficant when the CommandStart is going to
quickly decide to stop.
To do that, the message it displays needs to be displayed in the worker
thread, after the CommandStart has run.
Also, the change will mean that CommandStart will no longer necessarily
run with the same Annex state as CommandPerform. While its docs already
said it should avoid modifying Annex state, I audited all the
CommandStart code as part of the conversion. (Note that CommandSeek
already sometimes runs with a different Annex state, and that has not been
a source of any problems, so I am not too worried that this change will
lead to breakage going forward.)
The only modification of Annex state I found was it calling
allowMessages in some Commands that default to noMessages. Dealt with
that by adding a startCustomOutput and a startingUsualMessages.
This lets a command start with noMessages and then select the output it
wants for each CommandStart.
One bit of breakage: onlyActionOn has been removed from commands that used it.
The plan is that, since a StartMessage contains an ActionItem,
when a Key can be extracted from that, the parallel job runner can
run onlyActionOn' automatically. Then commands won't need to worry about
this detail. Future work.
Otherwise, this was a fairly straightforward process of making each
CommandStart compile again. Hopefully other behavior changes were mostly
avoided.
In a few cases, a command had a CommandStart that called a CommandPerform
that then called showStart multiple times. I have collapsed those
down to a single start action. The main command to perhaps suffer from it
is Command.Direct, which used to show a start for each file, and no
longer does.
Another minor behavior change is that some commands used showStart
before, but had an associated file and a Key available, so were changed
to ShowStart with an ActionItemAssociatedFile. That will not change the
normal output or behavior, but --json output will now include the key.
This should not break it for anyone using a real json parser.
* init: When the repository already has a description, don't change it.
* describe: When run with no description parameter it used to set
the description to "", now it will error out.
Importing from a special remote honors its preferred content too; unwanted
files are not imported. But, some preferred content expressions can't be
checked before files are imported, and trying to import with such an
expression will fail.
Tested this with scenarios including changing the preferred content
expression and making sure merging the import didn't delete files that were
no longer wanted.
There was one minor inefficiency mentioned in the todo that I punted on.
Prevents merging the import from deleting the non-preferred files from
the branch it's merged into.
adjustTree previously appended the new list of items to the old, which
could result in it generating a tree with multiple files with the same
name. That is not good and confuses some parts of git. Gave it a
function to resolve such conflicts.
That allowed dealing with the problem of what happens when the import
contains some files (or subtrees) with the same name as files that were
filtered out of the export. The files from the import win.
The filtering is fairly efficient as far as building the trees goes,
since it reuses adjustTree. But it still needs to traverse the whole
tree, and look up the keys used by every file.
The tree that gets recorded to export.log is the filtered tree.
This way resumes of interrupted sync to an export uses it without
needing to recalculate it. And, a change to the preferred content
settings of the remote will result in a different tree, so the export
will be updated accordingly.
The original tree is still used in the remote tracking branch.
That branch represents the special remote as a git remote, and if it
were a normal git remote, the tree in its head would not be affected by
preferred content.
Only when the preferred content expression includes them will a parse
failure due to them needing keys result in the preferred content
expression not parsing in keyless mode.
This will let import try to match preferred content expressions before
downloading the content and generating its key.
If an expression needs a key, it preferredContentParser with
preferredContentKeylessTokens will fail to parse it.
standard and groupwanted are not in preferredContentKeylessTokens
because they may refer to an expression that refers to a key.
That needs further work to support them.
Fixes bug that caused git-annex to fail to add a file when another
git-annex process cleaned up the temp directory it was using.
Solution is just to push withOtherTmp out to a higher level, so that
the whole ingest process can be completed inside it.
But in the assistant, that was not practical to do, since withOtherTmp runs
in the Annex monad and the assistant does not. Worked around by introducing
a separate temp directory that only the assistant uses for lockdown.
Since only one assistant can run at a time, it's easy to clean up that
directory of old cruft at startup.
Fix reversion in last release that caused wrong tree to be written to
remote tracking branch after an export of a subtree.
The invariant "commitsha should have the treesha as its tree"
was not met due to a bug. Guarantee it's met by catting the commitsha
to find its actual tree. A little bit slower, but this is not run often.
This way no history is lost, neither what was exported to the remote,
or the history of changes that is imported from it. No complicated
correlation of two possibly very different histories is needed, just
record what we know and then git merge will do a good job.
Also, it notices when the remote tracking branch doesn't need to be updated,
and avoids doing anything, so noop remotes are super cheap.
The only catch here is that, since the commits generated for imports
from the remote don't have a stable date or author/committer, each
(non-noop) import generates different commits for the same imported
trees. So, when the imported remote tracking branch is merged into master
and then a change is imported again, there will be an extra series of
commits, which will get more and more expensive each time.
This seems to call for making stable commits for imports. Also that
seems a good idea to make importing in several repositories have the
same result.
* Added mimeencoding= term to annex.largefiles expressions.
This is probably mostly useful to match non-text files with eg
"mimeencoding=binary"
* git-annex matchexpression: Added --mimeencoding option.
Also, look up the name in the special remote log first, only fall back
to remote name/uuid/description lookup if it fails. This should avoid
violating least surprise in cases where the special remote they wish t
rename is not enabled, or has a git remote with a different name.
Switch listContents to being a proper CommandStart, so if it throws an
exception, it will be treated like any other command action that fails.
downloadImport apparently does not ever throw an exception,
and itself uses commandAction, so it can't be a CommandStart.
In particular, when two files had the same content, and one was unlocked
and modified, with annex.thin that can corrupt the content of the
annex object, and so fsck on the other file should detect that.
getKeyStatus was relying on Database.Keys.getAssociatedFiles to tell
when a file is unlocked, but that can false positive because the
database can list old associated files.
Instead, separate out the case of unlocked object which has multiple
hardlinks when annex.thin is in use.
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.)
Avoid a warning message when renameExport is not supported, and just
fallback to deleting with a subsequent re-upload. Especially needed for
importtree remotes, where renameExport needs to be disabled.
This changes the external special remote protocol, but in a
backwards-compatible way. A reply of UNSUPPORTED-REQUEST to an older
version of git-annex will cause it to make renameExport return False.
This works, and tested syncing both gets changes from a special remote
and sends changes to it, keeping it fully in sync nicely!
But have not tried it with a subdir configured.
Users may want sync to only export, or only import and this is broadly
analagous to push and pull, so it makes sense to use the same
configuration for it.
Alternative doesn't combine the subparsers the way I wanted.
Unfortunately this new parser has suboptimal usage because everything is
all jumbled together.
For now, it's only allowed when exporttree=yes is also set.
That simplified the implementation, but could later be changed if
there's a remote that makes sense to be an import but not an export.
However, it may work just as well to make a remote be readonly to
prevent export to it while still allowing import.
The branch is only updated once the export is 100% complete. This way,
if an export is started but interrupted and so the remote does not yet
contain some of the files, an import will make a commit on the old
branch, and so won't delete the missing files.
Made some api changes.
listImportableContents needs to provide the size
of the data, so the downloader can check disk free space.
retrieveExportWithContentIdentifier is passed the filepath to write to
Use temporary "CID" key during download of a ContentIdentifier from a
remote, so withTmp can be used and then move the content to the real key
once it's known.
Added graftTree but it's buggy.
Should use graftTree in Annex.Branch.graftTreeish; it will be faster
than the current implementation there.
Started Annex.Import, but untested and it doesn't yet handle tree
grafting.
Avoid performing repository fixups for submodules and git-worktrees
when there's a .noannex file that will prevent git-annex from being
used in the repository.
This change is ok as long as the .noannex file is really going to prevent
git-annex from being used. But, init --force could override the file.
Which would result in the repo being initialized without the fixups
having run.
To avoid that situation decided to change init, to not let --force be used
to override a .noannex file. Instead the user can just delete the file.
* fromkey: Added --json.
* fromkey --batch output changed to support using it with --json.
The old output was not parseable for any useful information, so
this is not expected to break anything.
If the worktree file already exists, and is annexed and uses the same
key, avoid failing, nothing needs to be done.
Had to add lookupFileNotHidden to handle the case where an adjust --hide-missing
is in use, and the worktree file was hidden due to the object content
being missing. lookupFile would return the key of the hidden file,
but it makes sense that after fromkey succeeds, the worktree must
contain the file it was supposed to set up.
Purifying exportActions will allow introspecting and modifying it,
which is needed to add progress bar display to it.
Only S3 and WebDAV ran an Annex action while constructing ExportActions.
There was a small performance gain from them doing that, since a
resource was able to be prepared and reused for multiple actions by
Command.Export.
As seen in commit 809cfbbd8a and
5d394023eb S3 and WebDAV actually create a
new handle for each access in normal, non-export use. It doesn't seem
worth making export use of them marginally more efficient than normal
use. It would be better to do that work upfront when constructing the
remote. Or perhaps use a MVar to cache a handle.
This commit was sponsored by Nick Piper on Patreon.
Like the earlier fixed one in Command.Export, it occurred when the same
tree was exported by multiple clones. Previous fix was incomplete since
several other places looked at the list of exported trees to detect when
there was an export conflict. Added a single unified function to avoid
missing any places it needed to be fixed.
This commit was sponsored by mo on Patreon.
The object is supposed to be present on the readonly remote; have to
assume the location log is right about that, so the presence check
should succeed.
* Switch to using .git/annex/othertmp for tmp files other than partial
downloads, and make stale files left in that directory when git-annex
is interrupted be cleaned up promptly by subsequent git-annex processes.
* The .git/annex/misctmp directory is no longer used and git-annex will
delete anything lingering in there after it's 1 week old.
Also, in Annex.Ingest, made the filename it uses in the tmp dir be
prefixed with "ingest-" to avoid potentially using a filename used by
some other code.
This reverts commit 4536c93bb2.
That broke Read/Show of a Key, and unfortunately Key is read in at least
one place; the GitAnnexDistribution data type.
It would be worth bringing this optimisation back, but it would need
either a custom Read/Show instance that preserves back-compat, or
wrapping Key in a data type that contains the serialization, or changing
how GitAnnexDistribution is serialized.
Also, the Eq instance would need to compare keys with and without a
cached seralization the same.
This will speed up the common case where a Key is deserialized from
disk, but is then serialized to build eg, the path to the annex object.
It means that every place a Key has any of its fields changed, the cache
has to be dropped. I've grepped and found them all. But, it would be
better to avoid that gotcha somehow..
Now there's a ByteString used all the way from disk to Key.
The main complication in this conversion was the use of fromInternalGitPath
in several places to munge things on Windows. The things that used that
were changed to parse the ByteString using either path separator.
Also some code that had read from files to a String lazily was changed
to read a minimal strict ByteString.
A keyName could contain "/", though this is unlikely and certianly only
ever could happen with WORM keys.
The change to addunused to escape that is no problem at all.
The change to VariantFile to escape it means that different versions of
git-annex could resolve a merge conflict differently in this case, which
is unfortunate. There would be different .variant files used, so the two
resolutions would themselves merge together without additional
conflicts, but the user would have to clean up the extra .variant
files.
What these generate is not really suitable to be used as a filename,
which is why keyFile and fileKey further escape it. These are just
serializing Keys.
Also removed a quickcheck test that was very unlikely to test anything
useful, since it relied on random chance creating something that looks
like a serialized key. The other test is sufficient for testing what
that was intended to test anyway.
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.
It used to display the "bad feed content" message indicating there were no
enclosures found, which was misleading when the http request for the feed
failed.
This commit was sponsored by Ewen McNeill on Patreon.
This fixes a bug with the numcopies counting when using sync --content.
It did not always pass the local repo uuid to handleDropsFrom, and so the
numcopies counting was off by one, and unwanted local content would only be
dropped when there were numcopies+1 remote copies.
Also, support dropping local content that has reached an
exporttree remote that is not untrusted (currently only S3 remotes
with versioning).
No deprecation warning at run time, just one on the man page.
One thing findref remains able to do that find cannot is to run in a bare
repo. Find was made to refuse to run in a bare repo because it seemed
confusing for it to not list any files ever in that situation. It would be
better for find --branch to work in a bare repo but not without --branch
but I don't currently have a way to do that.
Probably a better solution would be to make git-annex in a bare repo
default to --branch master or something like that instead of --all.

p2p and multicast creds are not cached the same way that s3 and webdav
creds are. The difference is that p2p and multicast obtain the creds
themselves, as part of a process like pairing. So they're storing the
only extant copy of the creds. In s3 and webdav etc the creds are
provided by the cloud storage provider.
This is a fine difference, but I do think it's a reasonable difference.
If the user wants to prevent s3 and webdav etc creds from being stored
unencrypted on disk, they won't feel the same about p2p auth tokens
used for tor, or a multicast encryption key, or for that matter their
local ssh private key.

export, sync --content: Avoid unnecessarily trying to upload files to an
exporttree remote that already contains the files.
When the export was origianly made in one repo and now git-annex is
running in a different repo, the export database is not yet populated with
information about the exportLocation of files. So, it was trying to upload
the files to the export, even when it already contained them.
sync --content would first download the content from the export, and then
re-upload the content back.
And this also led to "not available" failures for each file that was not
locally present yet.
Fix: Just use checkPresentExport before uploading; if it succeeds update
the database.
This is a surprising oversight, it's possible it fixes a reversion because
I would have thought I'd have noticed this problem when originally
developing exporttree remotes.

That can leave other imported files not checked into git, because the git
command queue is not flushed when git-annex errors out. And since it only
happens once git-annex has concluded a feed is broken, it's an intermittent
bug, worst kind. Been seeing it for a while, only tracked down today.
Instead, by returning False, git-annex importfeed will cleanly shutdown and
still exit nonzero.

Cache high-resolution mtimes for improved detection of modified files in v7
(and direct mode).
Including on Windows.
With back-compat support so old low-res mtimes won't break anything, and
so the new information also won't break old versions of git-annex.
Removed undocumented special case in handling of a CHECKURL-MULTI response
with only a single file listed. Rather than ignoring the url that was in
the response, use it. This allows external special remotes that want to
provide some better url to do so, although I don't entirely agree with
using CHECKURL-MULTI to accomplish that. I'm more of the feeling that an
undocumented special case that throws data away is just not a good idea.
This could in theory break some external special remote program that relied
on the current behavior, but its seems unlikely that it would because such
a program must already handle the multiple url case, unless it only ever
provides a single url response to CHECKURL-MULTI.
Make addurl --file work with a single item CHECKURL-MULTI response.
It already did for external special remotes due to the special case,
but now it also will for builtin ones like the BitTorrent special remote.

This does beg the question of what to do if git later gets eg a
post-smudge hook, that could run git-annex smudge --update. I think the
thing to do in that case would be to make git-annex smudge --update
install the new hooks. That way, as the user uses git-annex, the hook
would be created pretty quickly and without needing any extra syscalls
except for when git-annex smudge --update is called.
I considered doing something like that for installation of the
post-checkout and post-merge hooks, which would have avoided the need
for v7. But the only place it was cheap to do it would be in git-annex smudge
which could cheaply notice that smudge.log didn't exist yet and so know
the hooks needed to be installed. But since smudge used to populate pointer
files, it would be quite surprising if a single git checkout/merge failed
to update the work tree, and so that idea didn't work out.
The other reason for v7 is psychological -- users don't need to worry
about whether they might be running an old version of git-annex that
doesn't support their v7 repository very well. And bug reports about
"v6" have gotten a bit of a bad association in my head since they often
hit one of the known limitations and didn't realize it was experimental.
newtyped RepoVersion Int to avoid needing 2 comparisons in
versionSupportsUnlockedPointers etc. Also it's just nicer.

Usually, git won't run clean filter when a file is unmodified. But, when
git checkout runs git annex smudge --update, it populates the pointer
runs git update-index, which sees the file has changed and runs
git annex smudge --clean, which was checksumming the file unncessarily
as it re-ingested it.
With annex.thin set, this is the difference between git checkout of a
branch with a 1 gb file taking 30s and 0.1s.

* init, upgrade: Install git post-checkout and post-merge hooks that run
git annex smudge --update.
* precommit: Run git annex smudge --update, because the post-merge
hook is not run when there is a merge conflict. So the work tree will
be updated when a commit is made to resolve the merge conflict.
* precommit: Run git annex smudge --update, because the post-merge
hook is not run when there is a merge conflict. So the work tree will
be updated when a commit is made to resolve the merge conflict.
* Note that git has no hooks run after git stash or git cherry-pick,
so the user will have to manually run git annex smudge --update
after such commands.
Nothing currently installs the hooks into v6 repos that already exist.
Something will need to be done about that, either move this behavior to v7,
or document that the user will need to manually fix up their v6 repos.

The smuge filter no longer provides git with annexed file content, to
avoid a git memory leak, and because that did not honor annex.thin.
git annex smudge --update has to be run after a checkout to update
unlocked files in the working tree with annexed file contents.
No hooks yet to run it.

This completes initial support for --hide-missing, although the

This relies on git ls-files --with-tree, which I'm using in a way that
its man page does not document. Hm. I emailed the git list to try to get
the docs improved, but at least the git test suite does test the same
kind of use case I'm using here.
Performance impact when not in an adjusted branch is limited to some
additional MVar accesses, and a single git call to determine the name of
the current branch. So very minimal.
When in an adjusted branch, the performance impact is
in Annex.WorkTree.lookupFile, which starts doing an equal amount of work
for files that didn't exist as it already did for files that were
unlocked.

Both Command.Sync and Annex.Ingest had their own versions of this.
The one in Annex.Ingest used Git.Branch.currentUnsafe, but does not seem
to need it. That is only checking to see if it's in an adjusted unlocked
branch, and when in an adjusted branch, the branch does in fact exist,
so the added check that Git.Branch.current does is fine.

* At long last there's a way to hide annexed files whose content
is missing from the working tree: git-annex adjust --hide-missing
* When already in an adjusted branch, running git-annex adjust
again will update the branch as needed. This is mostly
useful with --hide-missing to hide/unhide files after their content
has been dropped or received.
Still needs integration with sync and the assistant, and not as fast as it
could be, but already usable.

Combinations like --hide-misssing --unlocked seem very useful. On the
other hand, combining --fix with --unlock doesn't make sense because a
file can be either unlocked or a symlink that can be fixed, but not
both.
Changed the serialization of HideMissingAdjustment in passing, but it
has not actually been used yet so nothing will be broken.

After 220317df5a the test suite still
detected a problem; migrate of an unlocked file replaced it with a
pointer file rather than a file with the content.
This was a bookeeping problem; the worktree file was being copied to the object
file and the inode cache updated, but if that database write didn't get
flushed in time, later checks would think the content was not present.
Fixed by copying the object file to the worktree file instead, which
avoids needing to update the inode cache.
Also, only copy when there's a hard link to break, not always.

After commit b2bafdb2fc the test suite
threw up a failure migrating unlocked files.
I'm not clear how that commit broke it (presumably by inAnnex reporting
the right information now), but the actual problem is plain:
The inodecache for the worktree file is generated, but then the file is
replaced with a copy (unncessarily unless annex.link is set, but the
code always does so) and so linkToAnnex/linkAnnex then fails because it
notices the inode cache is not valid.

Running git-annex linux builds in termux seems to work well enough that the
only reason to keep the Android app would be to support Android 4-5, which
the old Android app supported, and which I don't know if the termux method
works on (although I see no reason why it would not).
According to [1], Android 4-5 remains on around 29% of devices, down from
51% one year ago.

Done by making setUrlPresent and setUrlMissing only update presence info
for the web, and only when the url is a web url. See the comment for
reasoning about why that's the right thing to do.
In AddUrl, had to make it update location tracking, to handle the

Only display the warning when the current branch has a tree that is not

Note that it doesn't check to see if the current tree is

configured, they are probably not in the right clone of the repository to

Added -z option to git-annex commands that use --batch, useful for
supporting filenames containing newlines.
It only controls input to --batch, the output will still be line delimited
unless --json or etc is used to get some other output. While git often
makes -z affect both input and output, I don't like trying them together,
and making it affect output would have been a significant complication,
and also git-annex output is generally not intended to be machine parsed,
unless using --json or a format option.
Commands that take pairs like "file key" still separate them with a space
in --batch mode. All such commands take care to support filenames with
spaces when parsing that, so there was no need to change it, and it would
have needed significant changes to the batch machinery to separate tose
with a null.
To make fromkey and registerurl support -z, I had to give them a --batch
option. The implicit batch mode they enter when not provided with input
parameters does not support -z as that would have complicated option
parsing. Seemed better to move these toward using the same --batch as
everything else, though the implicit batch mode can still be used.

The new second pass sees the file as type changed because the first
pass's changes have typically not reached git yet. So, have to
explicitly check for unmodified files in the second pass.
Note that, if the file has been touched but not really modified,
the first pass will handle it, and so the second pass does nothing.

v6: When a file is unlocked but has not been modified, and the unlocking is
only staged, git-annex add did not lock it. Now it will, for consistency
with how modified files are handled and with v5.
Note the removal of the sameInodeCache check. Otherwise it would see
that the unmodified file is unmodified and stop there. That check seems to have
been copied from the direct mode branch. But, direct mode had a specific
reason to check for unmodified content, that does not apply to v6.
The second pass means there is potential for a race, eg the unlocked
file could be modified in between the first and second passes.
No problem with that, since both passes do the same thing.

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

Make git-annex sync and the assistant skip trying to drop from appendonly
remotes since it's just going to fail.
git-annex drop and similar commands will still try to drop from
appendonly, so the user will see failure messages when they try to do
that. To do otherwise would be confusing since the user has explicitly
asked for a drop with those commands.

v6: When annex.largefiles is not configured for a file, running git add or
git commit, or otherwise using git to stage a file will add it to the annex
if the file was in the annex before, and to git otherwise. This is to avoid
accidental conversion.
Note that git-annex add's behavior has not changed, for reasons explained
in the added comment.
Performance: No added overhead when annex.largefiles is configured.
When not configured, there is an added call to catObjectMetaData,
which involves a round trip through git cat-file --batch.
However, the earlier catKeyFile primes the cache for it.

Last of the known v6 races.
This also makes git add of a pointer file populate it when its content

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.

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.

When --batch is used with matching options like --in, --metadata, etc, only
operate on the provided files when they match those options. Otherwise, a
blank line is output in the batch protocol.
Affected commands: find, add, whereis, drop, copy, move, get
In the case of find, the documentation for --batch already said it honored
the matching options. The docs for the rest didn't, but it makes sense to
have them honor them. While this is a behavior change, why specify the
matching options with --batch if you didn't want them to apply?
Note that the batch output for all of the affected commands could
already output a blank line in other cases, so batch users should
already be prepared to deal with it.
git-annex metadata didn't seem worth making support the matching options,
since all it does is output metadata or set metadata, the use cases for
using it in combination with the martching options seem small. Made it
refuse to run when they're combined, leaving open the possibility for later
support if a use case develops.

Added remote.name.annex-speculate-present config that can be used to
make cache remotes.
Implemented it in Remote.keyPossibilities, which is used by the
get/move/copy/mirror commands, and nothing else. This way, things like
whereis will not show content that's speculatively present.
The assistant and sync --content were not using Remote.keyPossibilities,
and were changed to use it.
The efficiency hit should be small; Remote.keyPossibilities is only
used before transferring a file, which is the expensive operation.
And, it's only doing one lookup of the remoteList and a very cheap
filter over it.
Note that, git-annex still updates the location log when copying content
to a remote with annex-speculate-present set. In this case, the location
tracking will indicate that content is present in the remote. This may
not be wanted for caches, or may not be a real problem for them. TBD.

If youtubeDl fails, remove the tmp file. Here tmp is the
html file downloaded to check if the url is html, not what youtube-dl
might have started to download. If the tmp file were retained, a
re-run of addurl would try to resume downloading it, which the web
server might not support, causing the resume to fail.
And it's a smallish html page anyway so no benefit to
keeping it for such a resume.
Leveraged the existing verification code by making it also check the
retrievalSecurityPolicy.
Also, prevented getViaTmp from running the download action at all when the
retrievalSecurityPolicy is going to prevent verifying and so storing it.
Added annex.security.allow-unverified-downloads. A per-remote version
would be nice to have too, but would need more plumbing, so KISS.
(Bill the Cat reference not too over the top I hope. The point is to
make this something the user reads the documentation for before using.)
A few calls to verifyKeyContent and getViaTmp, that don't
involve downloads from remotes, have RetrievalAllKeysSecure hard-coded.
It was also hard-coded for P2P.Annex and Command.RecvKey,
to match the values of the corresponding remotes.
A few things use retrieveKeyFile/retrieveKeyFileCheap without going
through getViaTmp.

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.

When content has been lost from an export remote and git-annex fsck --from
remote has noticed it's gone, re-running git-annex export or git-annex sync
--content will re-upload it.
Note that normally there's no way to remove a single file from an export.
doc/design/exporting_trees_to_special_remotes.mdwn talks about this
in the section "dropping from exports and copying to exports". But, if
a file is somehow deleted or corrupted on the export, and fsck notices
this, it will update the location log to say it's missing.
So, checking the location log when determining if a file needs to be sent
to the export will let such missing files be added back in. There's
otherwise no way to do so. It does not fall afoul of the races documented
in the abovementioned section, I think.

https://prime.haskell.org/wiki/Libraries/Proposals/SemigroupMonoid
I am not happy with the fragile pile of CPP boilerplate required to support
ghc back to 7.0, which git-annex still targets for both the android build
and the standalone build targeting old linux kernels. It makes me unlikely
to want to use Semigroup more in git-annex, because the benefit of the
abstraction is swamped by the ugliness. I actually considered ripping out
all the Semigroup instances, but some are needed to use
optparse-applicative.
The problem, I think, is they made this transaction on too fast a timeline.
(Although ironically, work on it started in 2015 or earlier!)
In particular, Debian oldstable is not out of security support, and it's
not possible to follow the simpler workarounds documented on the wiki and
have it build on oldstable (because the semigroups package in it is too
old).
I have only tested this build with ghc 8.2.2, not the newer and older
versions that branches of the CPP support. So there could be typoes, we'll
see.

In some cases, unstaged changes are safe, eg dotfiles in the top which
are not affected by a view. Or non-annexed files in general which would
prevent view branch checkout from proceeding. But in other cases,
particularly unstaged changes to annexed files, entering a view would wipe
out those changes! And so don't allow entering a view with any unstaged
changes.
Staged changes are not safe when entering a view, because the changes get
committed to the view branch, and so the user is unlikely to remember them
when they exit the view, and so will effectively lose them, even if they're
still present in the view branch.
Also, improved the git status parser, although the improvement turned out
to not really be needed.

This fixes a crash when a git submodule has a name starting with a dot.
Such a submodule might contain dotfiles that are intended to be used when
inside the view (since a dot-directory that's not a submodule was already
preserved when entering a view). So, rather than eliminating the submodule
from the view, its git ls-files --stage hash is copied over into the view.
dotfiles/dirs have their git ls-files --stage hashes similarly copied over
to the view. This is more efficient and simpler than the old method,
and also won't break if git ever adds a new type of tree item, like was
done with submodules.
Since the content of dotfiles in the working tree is no longer hashed
when entering a view, when there are unstaged modifications, they are
not included in the view branch. Entering the view branch still works,
but git checkout shows "M .dotfile", and git diff will show the unstaged
changes. This seems like an improvement over the old behavior.
Also made Command.View not delete empty directories that are submodules
when entering a view, while still deleting other empty directories.

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.
As long as all code imports Utility.Aeson rather than Data.Aeson,
and no Strings that may contain utf-8 characters are used for eg, object
keys via T.pack, this is guaranteed to fix the problem everywhere that
git-annex generates json.
It's kind of annoying to need to wrap ToJSON with a ToJSON', especially
since every data type that has a ToJSON instance has to be ported over.
However, that only took 50 lines of code, which is worth it to ensure full
coverage. I initially tried an alternative approach of a newtype FileEncoded,
which had to be used everywhere a String was fed into aeson, and chasing
down all the sites would have been far too hard. Did consider creating an
intentionally overlapping instance ToJSON String, and letting ghc fail
to build anything that passed in a String, but am not sure that wouldn't
pollute some library that git-annex depends on that happens to use ToJSON
String internally.

Note that curl is always run in silent mode, since the new API for

Added annex.retry, annex.retry-delay, and per-remote versions to configure
transfer retries.

Avoid creating transfer info file before transfer lock is created and
locked.
The wrong order for one thing caused transfer info to be overwritten
when a transfer was already in progress.
But worse, it caused checkTransfer to see the transfer info,
and so lock the transfer lock in order to verify the transfer was not in
progress. Which in a concurrent situation, prevented the transferrer
from locking the transfer lock, so it failed with "transfer already in
progress".
Note that the transferinfo command does not lock the transfer lock
before creating the transfer info. But, that's only run after
recvkey is running, and recvkey does lock the transfer lock, so that
seems more or less ok. (Other than being a super complicated legacy mess
that the P2P code has mostly obsoleted now.)

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.

Noticed that getting a key whose size is not known resulted in a
progress display that didn't include the percent complete.
Fixed for P2P by making the size sent with DATA be used to update the
meter's total size.
In order for rateLimitMeterUpdate to also learn the total size,
had to make it be passed the Meter, and some other reorg in
Utility.Metered was also done so that --json-progress can construct a
Meter to pass to rateLimitMeterUpdate.
When the fallback rsync is done, the progress display still doesn't
include the percent complete. Only way to fix that seems to be to let rsync
display its output again, but that would conflict with git-annex's
own progress meter, which is also being displayed.

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.

Not yet used for everything else, but this is enough to
verify that it works, and do some benchmarking.
Some bugfixes included, which got it working. Also fallback to old
actions has been verified to work correctly.
Benchmarked dropping one thousand files from a ssh remote on localhost.
Using the old git-annex 40.867 seconds.
With the P2P protocol 9.905 seconds!

Much like Remote.P2P, there's a pool of connections to a peer, in order
to support concurrent operations.
Deals with old git-annex-ssh on the remote that does not support p2pstdio,
by only trying once to use it, and remembering if it's not supported.
Made p2pstdio send an AUTH_SUCCESS with its uuid, which serves the dual
purposes of something to detect to see that the connection is working,
and a way to verify that it's connected to the right uuid.
(There's a redundant uuid check since the uuid field is sent
by git_annex_shell, but I anticipate that being removed later when
the legacy git-annex-shell stuff gets removed.)
Not entirely happy with Remote.Git.runSsh's behavior
when the proto action fails. Running the fallback will work ok, but what
will we do when the fallbacks later get removed? It might be better to
try to reconnect, in case the connection got closed.

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.

lockContentShared had a screwy caveat that it didn't verify that the content
was present when locking it, but in the most common case, eg indirect mode,
it failed to lock when the content is not present.
That led to a few callers forgetting to check inAnnex when using it,
but the potential data loss was unlikely to be noticed because it only
affected direct mode I think.
Fix data loss bug when the local repository uses direct mode, and a
locally modified file is dropped from a remote repsitory. The bug
caused the modified file to be counted as a copy of the original file.
(This is not a severe bug because in such a situation, dropping
from the remote and then modifying the file is allowed and has the same
end result.)
And, in content locking over tor, when the remote repository is
in direct mode, it neglected to check that the content was actually
present when locking it. This could cause git annex drop to remove
the only copy of a file when it thought the tor remote had a copy.
So, make lockContentShared do its own inAnnex check. This could perhaps
be optimised for direct mode, to avoid the check then, since locking
the content necessarily verifies it exists there, but I have not bothered
with that.

sync: Fix bug that prevented pulling changes into direct mode repositories
that were committed to remotes using git commit rather than git-annex sync.

Noticed while running this (which a user posted in a comment they deleted
for some reason):
git-annex importfeed https://vimeo.com/logiingimars/videos/rss
The filename that youtube-dl suggests included a subdirectory,
which didn't exist, so renaming to it failed.

Added --json-error-messages option, which includes error messages in the
json output, rather than outputting them to stderr.
The actual rediretion of errors is not implemented yet, this is only
the docs and option plumbing.
