Using Sets is the right thing; they have constant size lookup like my
SizeList, and logn insertation, which beats nub to death.
Runs faster than --fast mode did before, and gives accurate counts.
13 seconds total runtime with a warm cache in a repository with 40 thousand
keys.
find: Rather than only showing files whose contents are present, when used
with --exclude --copies or --in, displays all files that match the
specified conditions.
Note that this is a behavior change for find --exclude! Old behavior
can be gotten with find --in . --exclude=...
get, drop: Added --auto option, which decides whether to get/drop content
as needed to work toward the configured numcopies.
The problem with bundling it up in optimize was that I then found I wanted
to run an optmize that did not drop files, only got them. Considered adding
a --only-get switch to it, but that seemed wrong. Instead, let's make
existing subcommands optionally smarter.
Note that the only actual difference between drop and drop --auto is that
the latter does not even try to drop a file if it knows of not enough
copies, and does not print any error messages about files it was unable to
drop.
It might be nice to make get avoid asking git for attributes when not in
auto mode. For now it always asks for attributes.
First, this ensures that git annex addurl, when run repeatedly with the
same url, doesn't create duplicate files, which it did before when it
fell back to the longer filename.
Secondly, the file part of an url is frequently not very descriptive on its
own.
The uri scheme, auth, and port is intentionally left out, as clutter.
This includes a generic JSONStream library built on top of Text.JSON
(somewhat hackishly).
It would be possible to stream out a single json document describing
all actions, but it's probably better for consumers if they can expect
one json document per line, so I did it that way instead.
Output from external programs used for transferring files is not
currently hidden when outputting json, which probably makes it not very
useful there. This may be dealt with if there is demand for json
output for --get or --move to be parsable.
The version, status, and find subcommands have hand-crafted output and
don't do json. The whereis subcommand needs to be modified to produce
useful json.
Using a single strictness annotation, in just the right place.
Tried several others, none of which helped and some of which potentially
hurt. This is only the second time I've really had to deal with this in
a year of using haskell, which is, I suppose not that bad.
