This is a work in progress. It compiles and is able to do basic command
dispatch, including git autocorrection, while using optparse-applicative
for the core commandline parsing.
* Many commands are temporarily disabled before conversion.
* Options are not wired in yet.
* cmdnorepo actions don't work yet.
Also, removed the [Command] list, which was only used in one place.
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.
Old behavior was to take the first fuzzy match. Now, it checks the globa
git config, and runs the normal fuzzy handling, including failing to run a
semi-random command by default.
Note that this means getopt parsing is done even when not in a git
repository, even though currently cmdnorepo is not passed the results of
it. I'd like to move to cmdnorepo not doing its own ad-hoc option parsing,
so this is really a good thing. (But as long as eg, getOptionFlag needs an
Annex monad, it cannot be used in cmdnorepo handling.)
There is a potential for problems if any cmdnorepo branch of a command
handles options that are not in its regular getopt, but that would be a bug
anyway.
I've been disliking how the command seek actions were written for some
time, with their inversion of control and ugly workarounds.
The last straw to fix it was sync --content, which didn't fit the
Annex [CommandStart] interface well at all. I have not yet made it take
advantage of the changed interface though.
The crucial change, and probably why I didn't do it this way from the
beginning, is to make each CommandStart action be run with exceptions
caught, and if it fails, increment a failure counter in annex state.
So I finally remove the very first code I wrote for git-annex, which
was before I had exception handling in the Annex monad, and so ran outside
that monad, passing state explicitly as it ran each CommandStart action.
This was a real slog from 1 to 5 am.
Test suite passes.
Memory usage is lower than before, sometimes by a couple of megabytes, and
remains constant, even when running in a large repo, and even when
repeatedly failing and incrementing the error counter. So no accidental
laziness space leaks.
Wall clock speed is identical, even in large repos.
This commit was sponsored by an anonymous bitcoiner.
Option parsing for commands that run outside git repos is still screwy,
as there is no Annex monad and so the flags cannot be passed in. But,
any remaining parameters can be, which is enough for this fix.
That's needed in files used to build the configure program.
For the other files, I'm keeping my __WINDOWS__ define, as I find that much easier to type.
I may search and replace it to use the mingw32_HOST_OS thing later.
When rsyncProgress pipes rsync's stdout, this turns out to cause a ssh
process started by rsync to be left behind as a zombie. I don't know why,
but my recent zombie reaping cleanup was correct, it's just that this other
zombie, that's not directly started by git-annex, was no longer reaped
due to changes in the cleanup. Make rsyncProgress reap the zombie started
by rsync, as a workaround.
FWIW, the process tree looks like this. It seems like the rsync child
is for some reason starting but not waiting on this extra ssh process.
Ssh connection caching may be involved -- disabling it seemed to change
the shape of the tree, but did not eliminate the zombie.
9378 pts/14 S+ 0:00 | \_ rsync -p --progress --inplace -4 -e 'ssh' '-S' ...
9379 pts/14 S+ 0:00 | | \_ ssh ...
9380 pts/14 S+ 0:00 | | \_ rsync -p --progress --inplace -4 -e 'ssh' '-S' ...
9381 pts/14 Z+ 0:00 | \_ [ssh] <defunct>
This seems to fix a problem I've recently seen where ctrl-c during rsync
leads to `git annex get` moving on to the next thing rather than exiting.
Seems likely that started happening with the switch to System.Process
(d1da9cf221), as the old code took care
to install a default SIGINT handler.
Note that since the bug was only occurring sometimes, I am not 100% sure
I've squashed it, although I seem to have.
git-annex (but not git-annex-shell) supports the git help.autocorrect
configuration setting, doing fuzzy matching using the restricted
Damerau-Levenshtein edit distance, just as git does. This adds a build
dependency on the haskell edit-distance library.
Added Annex.cleanup, which is a general purpose interface for adding
actions to run at the end.
Remotes with the old git-annex-shell will commit every time, and have no
commit command, so hide stderr when running the commit command.
This is the last memory leak that prevents git-annex from running
in constant space, as far as I can see. I can now run git annex find
dummied up to repeatedly find the same file over and over, on millions
olf files, and memory stays entirely constant.
When converting to the strict state monad, I missed this place where
thunks to the state could be built up, possibly. This seems to make
it run in some percentage less memory.
Done by adding a oneshot mode, in which location log changes are written to
the journal, but not committed. Taking advantage of git-annex's existing
ability to recover in this situation.
This is used by git-annex-shell and other places where changes are made to
a remote's location log.
Ssh connection caching is now enabled automatically by git-annex. Only one
ssh connection is made to each host per git-annex run, which can speed some
things up a lot, as well as avoiding repeated password prompts. Concurrent
git-annex processes also share ssh connections. Cached ssh connections are
shut down when git-annex exits.
Note: The rsync special remote does not yet participate in the ssh
connection caching.
