Run the same code git-annex used to get the sha, including its sanity
checking. Much better than old grep. Should detect FreeBSD systems with
sha commands that output in stange format.
This after fielding a bug where git-annex was built with a sha256 program
whose output checked out, but was then run with one that output lines
like:
SHA256 (file) = <sha here>
Which it then parsed as having a SHA256 of "SHA256"!
Now the output of the command is required to be of the right length,
and contain only the right characters.
It's possible for files in indirect mode to have a direct mode mapping
file. Probably from when they were in direct mode. In this case,
toDirectGen tried to copy the content from the direct mode file that the
mapping said had it. But, being in indirect mode, it didn't really have the
content. So it did nothing. This fix makes it always move the content from
.git/annex/objects/ when it's there.
Observed that the pushed refs were received, but not merged into master.
The merger never saw an add event for these refs. Either git is not writing
to a new file and renaming it into place, or the inotify code didn't notice
that. Changed it to also watch for modify events and that seems to have
fixed it!
Note that the note on df88c51334 turned out
to be wrong. Multiple repository pairing over XMPP does work, because the
annex-uuid of the xmpp remote is updated to the uuid of the new repo
when pairing takes place. So the push from it is accepted. (And the other
UUIDs are listed in uuid.log, so pushes from those repositories also are
accepted of course.)
The root of the problem is that toInodeCache sees a non-symlink, and so
goes on and generates a new inode cache for the dummy symlink.
Any place that toInodeCache, or sameFileStatus, or genInodeCache are called
may need to deal with this case. Although many of them are ok. For example,
prepSendAnnex calls sameInodeCache, which calls genInodeCache.. but if
the file content is not present, the InodeCache generated for its standin
file is appropriately not the same, and so it returns Nothing.
I've audited some, but have to say I'm not happy with this; it should be
handled at the type level somehow, or a toInodeCache wrapper be used that
is aware of dummy symlinks.
(The Watcher already dealt with it, via the guardSymlinkStandin function.)
This is so git remotes on servers without git-annex installed can be used
to keep clients' git repos in sync.
This is a behavior change, but since annex-sync can be set to disable
syncing with a remote, I think it's acceptable.
assistant: Work around horrible, terrible, very bad behavior of
gnome-keyring, by not storing special-purpose ssh keys in ~/.ssh/*.pub.
Apparently gnome-keyring apparently will load and indiscriminately use such
keys in some cases, even if they are not using any of the standard ssh key
names. Instead store the keys in ~/.ssh/annex/, which gnome-keyring will
not check.
Note that neither I nor #debian-devel were able to quite reproduce this
problem, but I believe it exists, and that this fixes it. And it certianly
won't hurt anything..
Most remotes have meters in their implementations of retrieveKeyFile
already. Simply hooking these up to the transfer log makes that information
available. Easy peasy.
This is particularly valuable information for encrypted remotes, which
otherwise bypass the assistant's polling of temp files, and so don't have
good progress bars yet.
Still some work to do here (see progressbars.mdwn changes), but this
is entirely an improvement from the lack of progress bars for encrypted
downloads.
* addurl: Register transfer so the webapp can see it.
* addurl: Automatically retry downloads that fail, as long as some
additional content was downloaded.
