Remote now contains a ParsedRemoteConfig. The parsing happens when the
Remote is constructed, rather than when individual configs are used.
This is more efficient, and it lets initremote/enableremote
reject configs that have unknown fields or unparsable values.
It also allows for improved type safety, as shown in
Remote.Helper.Encryptable where things that used to match on string
configs now match on data types.
This is a work in progress, it does not build yet.
The main risk in this conversion is forgetting to add a field to
RemoteConfigParser. That will prevent using that field with
initremote/enableremote, and will prevent remotes that already are set
up from seeing that configuration. So will need to check carefully that
every field that getRemoteConfigValue is called on has been added to
RemoteConfigParser.
(One such case I need to remember is that credPairRemoteField needs to be
included in the RemoteConfigParser.)
This is a first step toward that goal, using the ProposedAccepted type
in RemoteConfig lets initremote/enableremote reject bad parameters that
were passed in a remote's configuration, while avoiding enableremote
rejecting bad parameters that have already been stored in remote.log
This does not eliminate every place where a remote config is parsed and a
default value is used if the parse false. But, I did fix several
things that expected foo=yes/no and so confusingly accepted foo=true but
treated it like foo=no. There are still some fields that are parsed with
yesNo but not not checked when initializing a remote, and there are other
fields that are parsed in other ways and not checked when initializing a
remote.
This also lays groundwork for rejecting unknown/typoed config keys.
This avoids hardcoding the sha size, so when git uses sha256, it will
output the full sha256 and not a truncation to 40 characters.
I reviewed git's history, and while there have been some
bugs with commands not supporting --no-abbrev (eg git diff --no-index
--no-abbrev was broken in git 2.1), none of the commands git-annex
uses will be impacted by those old bugs.
Git will eventually switch to sha2 and there will not be one single
shaSize anymore, but two (40 and 64).
Changed all parsers for git plumbing output to support both sizes of
shas.
One potential problem this does not deal with is, if somewhere in
git-annex it reads two shas from different sources, and compares them
to see if they're the same sha, it would fail if they're sha1 and sha256
of the same value. I don't know if that will really be a concern.
