Looking through the git sources (documentation is unclear),
it seems commit doesn't ever trigger git-gc, mostly fetching and merging
seems to. I cannot easily override the setting in all those places, so
instead set gc.auto in git config when initializing a repository with
the assistant.
This does mean that the user cannot set gc.auto=0 and completely avoid
repacks, as the assistant does it daily. But, it only does it after there
are 100x the default number of loose objects, so this is probably not going
to be too annoying.
Pass subcommand as a regular param, which allows passing git parameters
like -c before it. This was already done in the pipeing set of functions,
but not the command running set.
The transfer queue can grow larger than 10 when queueing transfers for
files that were just received, as well as requeueing failed transfers.
I probably need to do some work to prevent that, as it could use a lot of
RAM. But for now, cap the number of displayed transfers in the webapp, to
avoid flooding the browser.
The only thing lost is ./ghci
Speed: make fast used to take 20 seconds here, when rebuilding from
touching Command/Unused.hs. With cabal, it's 29 seconds.
git annex init probes for crippled filesystems, and sets direct mode, as
well as `annex.crippledfilesystem`.
Avoid manipulating permissions of files on crippled filesystems.
That would likely cause an exception to be thrown.
Very basic support in Command.Add for cripped filesystems; avoids the lock
down entirely since doing it needs both permissions and hard links.
Will make this better soon.
New setting, can be used to disable autocommit of changed files by the
assistant, while it still does data syncing and other tasks.
Also wired into webapp UI
This way, once it switches to the new repo, the user can switch back to the
old one, and its menu will allow switching to the new again.
However, if there are multiple repos, the others don't yet learn about the
new repo.
Would like to also have restart UI, but that's rather harder to do,
seems it'd need to start another copy of the webapp, and redirect the
browser to its new url, but running two assistants in the same repo at
the same time isn't good.
Now there's a Config type, that's extracted from the git config at startup.
Note that laziness means that individual config values are only looked up
and parsed on demand, and so we get implicit memoization for all of them.
So this is not only prettier and more type safe, it optimises several
places that didn't have explicit memoization before. As well as getting rid
of the ugly explicit memoization code.
Not yet done for annex.<remote>.* configuration settings.
For no apparent reason, this version removes all useful instances of
ToJavaScript, leavind behind only an instance for Aeson.Value. Argh. Pissed
off at this arbitrary breaking change, and seriously considering dropping
this library.
Maybe the spec allows it, but broadcasting self-directed presence info to
all buddies is just insane.
I had to bring back the IQ messages for self-pairing, while still using
directed presence for other pairing. Ugly.
Testing between Google Talk and prosody, the directed IQ messages
were not received. Google Talk probably only relays them between
clients using the same account.
I first tried even more directed presence, with each client JID being sent
a separate presence, but that didn't work on Google Talk, particularly
it was ignored when one client sent it to another client using the same
account.
So, presence directed at the user@host of the client to pair with. Tested
working between Google Talk and prosody (in both directions), as well
as between two clients with the same account on Google Talk, and
two clients with the same account on prosody.
Only problem with this form of directed presence is that if I also use it
for git pushes, more clients than are interested in a push's data will
receive it. So I may need some better approach, or a hybrid between
directed IQ and directed presence.
