Before, only content known to be present somewhere was considered a
duplicate. Now, any content that has been annexed before will be considered
a duplicate, even if all annexed copies of the data have been lost.
Note that --clean-duplicates and --deduplicate still check numcopies,
so won't delete duplicate files unless there's an annexed copy.
This makes import use the same method as reinject --known.
The man page already said that duplicate meant "its content is either
present in the local repository already, or git-annex knows of another
repository that contains it, or it was present in the annex before but has
been removed now". So, this is really only bringing the implementation into
line with the man page.

In the case where the pointer file is in place, and not the content
of the object, lock's performNew was called with filemodified=True,
which caused it to try to repopulate the object from an unmodified
associated file, of which there were none. So, the content of the object
got thrown away incorrectly. This was the cause (although not the root
cause) of data loss in https://github.com/datalad/datalad/issues/1020
The same problem could also occur when the work tree file is modified,
but the object is not, and lock is called with --force. Added a test case
for this, since it's excercising the same code path and is easier to set up
than the problem above.
Note that this only occurred when the keys database did not have an inode
cache recorded for the annex object. Normally, the annex object would be in
there, but there are of course circumstances where the inode cache is out
of sync with reality, since it's only a cache.
Fixed by checking if the object is unmodified; if so we don't need to
try to repopulate it. This does add an additional checksum to the unlock
path, but it's already checksumming the worktree file in another case,
so it doesn't slow it down overall.
Further investigation found a similar problem occurred when smudge --clean
is called on a file and the inode cache is not populated. cleanOldKeys
deleted the unmodified old object file in this case. This was also
fixed by checking if the object is unmodified.
In general, use of getInodeCaches and sameInodeCache is potentially
dangerous if the inode cache has not gotten populated for some reason.
Better to use isUnmodified. I breifly auited other places that check the
inode cache, and did not see any immediate problems, but it would be easy
to miss this kind of problem.
When git-annex is used with a git version older than 2.2.0, disable support for
adjusted branches, since GIT_COMMON_DIR is needed to update them and was first
added in that version of git.
The crash turned out to be caused by the sqlite database being deleted out
from under sqlite before it was done with it. Since multiple git_annex
calls are done in the same process while running the test suite, the
DbHandle could linger until GCed, and the test repo, and thus sqlite
database be deleted before the workerThread was done.
So, we need to look at both the file on disk to see if it's a annex link,
and the file in the index too. lookupFile doesn't look in the index if the file
is not present on disk.
have to change the content of unlocked file before committing
otherwise git commit will fail in v6 mode when the file was already
unlocked, because no changes have been made
In v5, that was not possible, but it is in v6, and so the test was failing.
Investigating, it turns out that locking was copying the pointer file
content to the annex object despite the content not being present. So,
add a check to prevent that.
WorkTree.lookupFile was finding a key for a file that's deleted from the
work tree, which is different than the v5 behavior (though perhaps the same
as the direct mode behavior). Fix by checking that the work tree file exists
before catting its key.
Hopefully this won't slow down much, probably the catKey is much more expensive.
I can't see any way to optimise this, except perhaps to make Command.Unused
check if work tree files exist before/after calling lookupFile. But,
it seems better to make lookupFile really only find keys for worktree files;
that's what it's intended to do.
(Only --from for now, should add --to sometime but I'm on low sleep so this
is the mininal test to catch the reversion just fixed, bad me for doing it
backwards and incompletely.)
When gpg.program is configured, it's used to get the command to run for
gpg. Useful on systems that have only a gpg2 command or want to use it
instead of the gpg command.
This removes a bit of complexity, and should make things faster
(avoids tokenizing Params string), and probably involve less garbage
collection.
In a few places, it was useful to use Params to avoid needing a list,
but that is easily avoided.
Problems noticed while doing this conversion:
* Some uses of Params "oneword" which was entirely unnecessary
overhead.
* A few places that built up a list of parameters with ++
and then used Params to split it!
Test suite passes.
The directory special remote was not affected in its normal configuration,
since annex-directory is an absolute path normally. But it could fail
when a relative path was used.
The git remote was affected even when an absolute path to it was used in
.git/config, since git-annex now converts all such paths to relative.
The fix is to stop using w82s, which does not properly reconstitute unicode
strings. Instrad, use utf8 bytestring to get the [Word8] to base64. This
passes unicode through perfectly, including any invalid filesystem encoded
characters.
Note that toB64 / fromB64 are also used for creds and cipher
embedding. It would be unfortunate if this change broke those uses.
For cipher embedding, note that ciphers can contain arbitrary bytes (should
really be using ByteString.Char8 there). Testing indicated it's not safe to
use the new fromB64 there; I think that characters were incorrectly
combined.
For credpair embedding, the username or password could contain unicode.
Before, that unicode would fail to round-trip through the b64.
So, I guess this is not going to break any embedded creds that worked
before.
This bug may have affected some creds before, and if so,
this change will not fix old ones, but should fix new ones at least.
I hope this doesn't impact speed much -- it does have to pull out a value
from Annex state every time it accesses the branch now.
The test case I dropped has never caught any problems that I can remember,
and would have been rather difficult to convert.

Unfortunately, this caused breakage on Windows, and possibly elsewhere,
because parentDir and takeDirectory do not behave the same when there is a
trailing directory separator.
parentDir is less safe than takeDirectory, especially when working
with relative FilePaths. It's really only useful in loops that
want to terminate at /

This allows the git repository to be moved while git-annex is running in
it, with fewer problems.
On Windows, this avoids some of the problems with the absurdly small
MAX_PATH of 260 bytes. In particular, git-annex repositories should
work in deeper/longer directory structures than before. See
http://git-annex.branchable.com/bugs/__34__git-annex:_direct:_1_failed__34___on_Windows/
There are several possible ways this change could break git-annex:
1. If it changes its working directory while it's running, that would
be Bad News. Good news everyone! git-annex never does so. It would also
break thread safety, so all such things were stomped out long ago.
2. parentDir "." -> "" which is not a valid path. I had to fix one
instace of this, and I should probably wipe all calls to parentDir out
of the git-annex code base; it was never a good idea.
3. Things like relPathDirToFile require absolute input paths,
and code assumes that the git repo path is absolute and passes it to it
as-is. In the case of relPathDirToFile, I converted it to not make
this assumption.
Currently, the test suite has 16 failures.
Simplify the test suite now that I have a way to setEnv on Windows by not
threading an environement through it.
Incidentially this fixed a failure on Windows, observed when running the
test suite in cygwin terminal, where there is apparently an env var named
"", and it tried to set that when propigating the environment, which failed.
But mostly, it makes the code a lot less horrible.

I had hoped that the git devs could change git's handling of partial
commits to not use a false index file, but seems not.
So, this relies on some git internals to detect that case. The test suite
has a test case added to catch it if changes to git break it.

Didn't know that this library existed!
This includes making git-annex not re-exec itself on start on windows, and
making the test suite on Windows run tests without forking.
Found these with:
git grep "^ " $(find -type f -name \*.hs) |grep -v ': where'
Unfortunately there is some inline hamlet that cannot use tabs for
indentation.
Also, Assistant/WebApp/Bootstrap3.hs is a copy of a module and so I'm
leaving it as-is.
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 needs optparse-applicative 0.10. Dropped support for 0.9 and older,
but kept 0.9.1 working since autobuilders and debian testing still use it.
(The display is not perfect with 0.9.1.)
Removed old extensible-exceptions, only needed for very old ghc.
Made webdav use Utility.Exception, to work after some changes in DAV's
exception handling.
Removed Annex.Exception. Mostly this was trivial, but note that
tryAnnex is replaced with tryNonAsync and catchAnnex replaced with
catchNonAsync. In theory that could be a behavior change, since the former
caught all exceptions, and the latter don't catch async exceptions.
However, in practice, nothing in the Annex monad uses async exceptions.
Grepping for throwTo and killThread only find stuff in the assistant,
which does not seem related.
Command.Add.undo is changed to accept a SomeException, and things
that use it for rollback now catch non-async exceptions, rather than
only IOExceptions.
I think this is a git behavior change, but have not checked to be sure.
Conflict cruft used to look like $foo~HEAD, but now just $foo is left
behind as conflict cruft.
With test case.
Support users who have set commit.gpgsign, by disabling gpg signatures for
git-annex branch commits and commits made by the assistant.
The thinking here is that a user sets commit.gpgsign intending the commits
that they manually initiate to be gpg signed. But not commits made in the
background, whether by a deamon or implicitly to the git-annex branch.
gpg signing those would be at best a waste of CPU and at worst would fail,
or flood the user with gpg passphrase prompts, or put their signature on
changes they did not directly do.
See Debian bug #753720.
Also makes all commits done by git-annex go through a few central control
points, to make such changes easier in future.
Also disables commit.gpgsign in the test suite.

Only fsck and reinject and the test suite used the Backend, and they can
look it up as needed from the Key. This simplifies the code and also speeds
it up.
There is a small behavior change here. Before, all commands would warn when
acting on an annexed file with an unknown backend. Now, only fsck and
reinject show that warning.
This is a new feature, it was not handled before, since it's a bit of an
edge case. However, it can be handled exactly the same as a file/dir
conflict, just leave the non-annexed item alone.
While implementing this, the core resolveMerge' function got a lot simpler
and clearer. Note especially that where before there was an asymetric call to
stagefromdirectmergedir, now graftin is called symmetrically in both cases.
And, in order to add that `graftin us`, the current branch needed to be
known (if there is no current branch, there cannot be a merge conflict).
This led to some cleanups of how autoMergeFrom behaved when there is no
current branch.

I think that 751f496c11 didn't quite manage
to actually fix the bug, although I have not checked since its "fix" got
redone.
The test suite now actually checks the file staged in git is a symlink,
rather than relying on the bug casing a later sync failure. This seems a
more reliable way to detect it, and probably avoids a heisenbug in the test
suite.
(And a vpop command, which is still a bit buggy.)
Still need to do vadd and vrm, though this also adds their documentation.
Currently not very happy with the view log data serialization. I had to
lose the TDFA regexps temporarily, so I can have Read/Show instances of
View. I expect the view log format will change in some incompatable way
later, probably adding last known refs for the parent branch to View
or something like that.
Anyway, it basically works, although it's a bit slow looking up the
metadata. The actual git branch construction is about as fast as it can be
using the current git plumbing.

git-annex has been using MissingH's `abdNormPath` forever, but that's
unmaintained and possibly buggy, and doesn't work on Windows. I've been
wanting to get rid of it for some time, and finally did today, writing a
`simplifyPath` that does the things git-annex needs and will work with all
the Windows filename craziness, and takes advantage of the more modern
System.FilePath to be quite a simple peice of code. A QuickCheck test found
no important divergences from absNormPath. A good first step to making
git-annex not depend on MissingH at all.
And it fixed some weird behaviors on Windows like
`git annex add ..\subdir\file` not working.
Note that absNormPathUnix has been left alone for now.
Fix bug in automatic merge conflict resolution code when used
on a filesystem not supporting symlinks, which resulted in it losing
track of the symlink bit of annexed files.
This was the underlying bug that was causing another test to fail,
which got worked around in 1c997fd08c.
I've chosen to keep 2 separate test cases since the old test case only
detected the problem accidentially.
Test suite passes on FAT & in windows, as well as on proper unix systems.

This fixes the problem of the environment variables apparently not being
seen on Windows. I could probably remove the setting of the env vars from
Test.hs now as this covers it better.
Note that outside the test suite, git-annex on windows seems to manage to
configure the repo so commits work on its own.
1c997fd08c broke the mixed conflict
resolution test. Since origin is no longer involved, both sides have to
sync after pairing. (The sync before pairing is just to get a commit.)
On windows, the sync of the second cloned repo to origin failed, because
synced/master was a non-fast-forward. This may be a bug of its own, but
it's not the issue that this test was intended to test, so disconnect
the repos from origin before syncing.
On Windows, a file that is not writable cannot be deleted even if in a
directory with write perms. So git object files were not getting deleted
when removing a git repository.
This will be used in expiring old unused objects. The timestamp is when it
was first noticed it was unused.
Backwards compatability: It supports reading old format unused log files.
The old version of git-annex will ignore lines in log files written by the
new version, so the worst interop problem would be git annex dropunused not
knowing some numbers that git-annex unused reported.
* numcopies: New command, sets global numcopies value that is seen by all
clones of a repository.
* The annex.numcopies git config setting is deprecated. Once the numcopies
command is used to set the global number of copies, any annex.numcopies
git configs will be ignored.
* assistant: Make the prefs page set the global numcopies.
This global numcopies setting is needed to let preferred content
expressions operate on numcopies.
It's also convenient, because typically if you want git-annex to preserve N
copies of files in a repo, you want it to do that no matter which repo it's
running in. Making it global avoids needing to warn the user about gotchas
involving inconsistent annex.numcopies settings.
(See changes to doc/numcopies.mdwn.)
Added a new variety of git-annex branch log file, that holds only 1 value.
Will probably be useful for other stuff later.
