This removes versionedExport, which was only used by the S3 special
remote. Instead, versionedexport=yes is a common way for remotes to
indicate that they are versioned.
This is not perfect because it does not handle versioned special
remotes, which should not be untrustworthy, but now are when proxied.
The implementation turned out to be easy, because the exporttree field
is a default field, so is available in RemoteConfig even for git
remotes.
This handles cases where a single key is used by multiple files in the
exported tree. When using `git-annex push`, the key's content gets
stored in the annexobjects location, and then when the branch is pushed,
it gets renamed from the annexobjects location to the first exported
file. For subsequent exported files, a copy of the content needs to be
made. This causes it to download the key from the remote in order to
upload another copy to it.
This is not needed when using `git push` followed by `git-annex copy --to`
the proxied remote, because the received key is stored at all export
locations then.
Also, fixed handling of the synced branch push, it was exporting master
when synced/master was pushed.
Note that currently, the first push to the remote does not see that it
is able to get a key from it in order to upload it back. It displays
"(not available)". The second push is able to. Since git-annex push
pushes first the synced branch and then the branch, this does end up
with a full export being made, but it is not quite right.
This is similar to git-annex copy --from --to, in that it downloads a
local copy, locks it for removal, uploads it, and drops it. Removal of
the temporary local copy is done without verifying numcopies for the
same reason as that command.
I do wonder, looking at this, if there's a race where the local copy
gets used as a copy to allow some other drop in the narrow window after
it is downloaded and before it gets locked for removal. That would need
some other repository to have an out of date location log that says the
repository contains a copy of the key, in order for it to try to use it
as a copy. If there is such a race, git-annex copy/move would also be
vulnerable to it. It would be better to lock it for removal before
starting to download it! That is possible in v10 repositories, which do
use a separate content lock file.
Note that, when the exported tree contains several files that use the
same key, it will be downloaded repeatedly, once per time needed to
upload it. It would be possible to avoid that extra work, but it would
complicate this since the local copy would need to be preserved, locked
for removal, until the end. Also, that would mean that interrupting the
export would leave possibly a lot of temporarily downloaded keys in the
local repository, while currently it can only leave one.
Since git-annex sync sends the sync branch first, and only displays the
output of the push to the sync branch, this makes git-annex
post-retrieve's output when updating the exported tree be visible when
syncing.
This also makes syncing with a non-bare repository still update the
exported tree, even when the checked out branch is not able to be
updated. The sync branch gets sent regardless.
When getting from a P2P HTTP remote, prompt for credentials when required,
instead of failing.
This feels like it might be a bug in servant-client. withClientM's type
suggests it would not throw a ClientError. But it does in this case.
This handles the workflow where the branch is first pushed to the proxy,
and then files in the exported tree are later are copied to the proxied remote.
Turns out that the way the export log is structured, nothing needs
to be done to finalize the export once the last key is sent to it. Which
is great because that would have been a lot of complication. On
receiving the push, Command.Export runs and calls recordExportBeginning,
does as much as it can to update the export with the files currently
on it, and then calls recordExportUnderway. At that point, the
export.log records the export as "complete", but it's not really. And
that's fine. The same happens when using `git-annex export` when some
files are not available to send. Other repositories that have
access to the special remote can already retrieve files from it. As
the missing files get copied to the exported remote, all that needs
to be done is record each in the export db.
At this point, proxying to exporttree=yes annexobjects=yes special remotes
is fully working. Except for in the case where multiple files in the
tree use the same key, and the files are sent to the proxied remote
before pushing the tree.
It seems that even special remotes without annexobjects=yes will work if
used with the workflow where the git-annex branch is pushed before
copying files. But not with the `git-annex push` workflow.
It works when using git-annex sync/push/assist, or when manually sending
all content to the proxied remote before pushing to the proxy remote.
But when the push comes before the content is sent, sending content does
not update the exported tree.
