Allow AnyTime events that still have time to occur in the current day to
fall in a window covering the current day, instead of waiting until the
next day in the Recurrance.
Currently only implemented for local git remotes. May try to add support
to git-annex-shell for ssh remotes later. Could concevably also be
supported by some special remote, although that seems unlikely.
Cronner user this when available, and when not falls back to
fsck --fast --from remote
git annex fsck --from does not itself use this interface.
To do so, I would need to pass --fast and all other options that influence
fsck on to the git annex fsck that it runs inside the remote. And that
seems like a lot of work for a result that would be no better than
cd remote; git annex fsck
This may need to be revisited if git-annex-shell gets support, since it
may be the case that the user cannot ssh to the server to run git-annex
fsck there, but can run git-annex-shell there.

addurl: Improve message when adding url with wrong size to existing file.
Before the message suggested the url didn't exist.
Fixed handling of URL keys that have no recorded size. Before, if the key
has no size, the url also had to not declare any size, which was unlikely
and wrong, or it was taken to not exist. This probably would mostly affect
keys that were added to the annex with addurl --relaxed.
Turns out that forkProcess masks async exceptions. Unmask them so that the
daemon code can use them for thread IPC.
There is some risk this introduces breakage in git-annex, but it would be
breakage that would already occur when the assistant was run with
--foreground.
Wow! This was hairy, but about 10x less hairy than expected actually!
A bit more recursion than I really like, since I think in theory all
of this date stuff can be calulated using some formulas I am too lazy too
look up. But this doesn't matter in practice; I asked it for
nextTime (Schedule (Divisible 100 (Yearly 7)) (SpecificTime 23 59) (MinutesDuration 10)) Nothing
.. and it calculated (NextTimeExactly 2100-01-07 23:59:00) in milliseconds.
Rather similar to crontab, although with a different format.
But with less emphasis on per-minute scheduling.
Also, supports weekly events, which cron makes too hard.
Also, has a duration field.
SHA3 is still waiting for final standardization.
Although this is looking less likely given
https://www.cdt.org/blogs/joseph-lorenzo-hall/2409-nist-sha-3
In the meantime, cryptohash implements skein, and it's used by some of the
haskell ecosystem (for yesod sessions, IIRC), so this implementation is
likely to continue working. Also, I've talked with the cryprohash author
and he's a reasonable guy.
It makes sense to have an alternate high security hash, in case some
horrible attack is found against SHA2 tomorrow, or in case SHA3 comes out
and worst fears are realized.
I'd also like to support using skein for HMAC. But no hurry there and
a new version of cryptohash has much nicer HMAC code, so I will probably
wait until I can use that version.
Overridable with --user-agent option.
Not yet done for S3 or WebDAV due to limitations of libraries used --
nether allows a user-agent header to be specified.

I forgot I had <$$> hidden away in Utility.Applicative.
It allows doing the same kind of currying as does >=*>
and I found using it made the code more readable for me.

This is a massive win on OSX, which doesn't have a sha256sum normally.
Only use external hash commands when the file is > 1 mb,
since cryptohash is quite close to them in speed.
SHA is still used to calculate HMACs. I don't quite understand
cryptohash's API for those.

Now the webapp can generate a gpg key that is dedicated for use by
git-annex. Since the key is single use, much of the complexity of
generating gpg keys is avoided.
Note that the key has no password, because gpg-agent is not available
everywhere the assistant is installed. This is not a big security problem
because the key is going to live on the same disk as the git annex
repository, so an attacker with access to it can look directly in the
repository to see the same files that get stored in the encrypted
repository on the removable drive.
There is no provision yet for backing up keys.
This commit sponsored by Robert Beaty.
Note that Utility.Format.prop_idempotent_deencode does not hold
now that hex escaped characters are supported. quickcheck fails to notice
this, so I have left it as-is for now.
Cipher is now a datatype
data Cipher = Cipher String | MacOnlyCipher String
which makes more precise its interpretation MAC-only vs. MAC + used to
derive a key for symmetric crypto.
With the initremote parameters "encryption=pubkey keyid=788A3F4C".
/!\ Adding or removing a key has NO effect on files that have already
been copied to the remote. Hence using keyid+= and keyid-= with such
remotes should be used with care, and make little sense unless the point
is to replace a (sub-)key by another. /!\
Also, a test case has been added to ensure that the cipher and file
contents are encrypted as specified by the chosen encryption scheme.
Having one module that knows about all the filenames used on the branch
allows working back from an arbitrary filename to enough information about
it to implement dropping dead remotes and doing other log file compacting
as part of a forget transition.
/!\ It is to be noted that revoking a key does NOT necessarily prevent
the owner of its private part from accessing data on the remote /!\
The only sound use of `keyid-=` is probably to replace a (sub-)key by
another, where the private part of both is owned by the same
person/entity:
git annex enableremote myremote keyid-=2512E3C7 keyid+=788A3F4C
Reference: http://git-annex.branchable.com/bugs/Using_a_revoked_GPG_key/
* Other change introduced by this patch:
New keys now need to be added with option `keyid+=`, and the scheme
specified (upon initremote only) with `encryption=`. The motivation for
this change is to open for new schemes, e.g., strict asymmetric
encryption.
git annex initremote myremote encryption=hybrid keyid=2512E3C7
git annex enableremote myremote keyid+=788A3F4C
Instead of populating the second-level Bloom filter with every key
referenced in every Git reference, consider only those which differ
from what's referenced in the index.
Incidentaly, unlike with its old behavior, staged
modifications/deletion/... will now be detected by 'unused'.
Credits to joeyh for the algorithm. :-)
When quvi is installed, git-annex addurl automatically uses it to detect
when an page is a video, and downloads the video file.
web special remote: Also support using quvi, for getting files,
or checking if files exist in the web.

I was not able to reproduce the failure, but I did reproduce that
wget -O http://404/ results in an empty file being written.
This runs git-cat-file in non-batch mode for all files with spaces.
If a directory tree has a lot of them, and is in direct mode, even "git
annex add" when there are few new files will need a *lot* of forks!
The only reason buffering the whole file content to get the sha is not a
memory leak is that git-annex only ever uses this on symlinks.
This needs to be reverted as soon as a fix is available in git!
A git pathspec is a filename, except when it starts with ':', it's taken
to refer to a branch, etc. Rather than special case ':', any filename
starting with anything unusual is prefixed with "./"
This could have been a real mess to deal with, but luckily SafeCommand
is already extensively used and so we know at the type level the difference
between parameters that are files, and parameters that are command options.
Testing did show that Git.Queue was not using SafeCommand on
filenames fed to xargs. (Filenames starting with '-' worked before only
because -- was used to separate filenames from options when calling eg git
add.)
The test suite now passes with filenames starting with ':'. However, I did
not keep that change to it, because such filenames are probably not legal
on windows, and I have enough ugly windows ifdefs in there as it is.

Started with a problem when running addurl on a really long url,
because the whole url is munged into the filename. Ended up doing
a fairly extensive review for places where filenames could get too large,
although it's hard to say I'm not missed any..
Backend.Url had a 128 character limit, which is fine when the limit is 255,
but not if it's a lot shorter on some systems. So check the pathconf()
limit. Note that this could result in fromUrl creating different keys
for the same url, if run on systems with different limits. I don't see
this is likely to cause any problems. That can already happen when using
addurl --fast, or if the content of an url changes.
Both Command.AddUrl and Backend.Url assumed that urls don't contain a
lot of multi-byte unicode, and would fail to truncate an url that did
properly.
A few places use a filename as the template to make a temp file.
While that's nice in that the temp file name can be easily related back to
the original filename, it could lead to `git annex add` failing to add a
filename that was at or close to the maximum length.
Note that in Command.Add.lockdown, the template is still derived from the
filename, just with enough space left to turn it into a temp file.
This is an important optimisation, because the assistant may lock down
a bunch of files all at once, and using the same template for all of them
would cause openTempFile to iterate through the same set of names,
looking for an unused temp file. I'm not very happy with the relatedTemplate
hack, but it avoids that slowdown.
Backend.WORM does not limit the filename stored in the key.
I have not tried to change that; so git annex add will fail on really long
filenames when using the WORM backend. It seems better to preserve the
invariant that a WORM key always contains the complete filename, since
the filename is the only unique material in the key, other than mtime and
size. Since nobody has complained about add failing (I think I saw it
once?) on WORM, probably it's ok, or nobody but me uses it.
There may be compatability problems if using git annex addurl --fast
or the WORM backend on a system with the 255 limit and then trying to use
that repo in a system with a smaller limit. I have not tried to deal with
those.

The icon files will be installed when running make install or cabal
install. Did not try to run update-icon-caches, since I think it's debian
specific, and dh_icons will take care of that for the Debian package.
Using the favicon as a 16x16 icon. At 24x24 the svg displays pretty well,
although the dotted lines are rather faint. The svg is ok at all higher
resolutions.
The standalone linux build auto-installs the desktop and autostart files
when run. I have not made it auto-install the icon file too, because
a) that would take more work to include them in the tarball and find them
b) it would need to be an install to ~/.icons/, and I don't know if that
really works!
This is a compromise. I would like to nice every thread except for the
webapp thread, but it's not practical to do so. That would need every
thread to run as a bound thread, which could add significant overhead.
And any forkIO would escape the nice level.
Fuzz tests have shown that git cat-file --batch sometimes stops running.
It's not yet known why (no error message; repo seems ok). But this is
something we can deal with in the CoProcess framework, since all 3 types of
long-running git processes should be restartable if they fail.
Note that, as implemented, only IO errors are caught. So an error thrown
by the reveiver, when it sees something that is not valid output from
git cat-file (etc) will not cause a restart. I don't want it to retry
if git commands change their output or are just outputting garbage.
This does mean that if the command did a partial output and crashed in the
middle, it would still not be restarted.
There is currently no guard against restarting a command repeatedly, if,
for example, it crashes repeatedly on startup.
The current manual mode preferred content expression is:
"present and (((exclude=*/archive/* and exclude=archive/*) or (not (copies=archive:1 or copies=smallarchive:1))) or (not copies=semitrusted+:1))"
The old matcher misparsed this, to basically:
OR (present and (...)) (not copies=semitrusted+:1))
The paren handling and indeed the whole conversion from tokens to the
matcher was just wrong. The new way may not be the cleverest, but I think
it is correct, and you can see how it pattern matches structurally against
the expressions when parsing them.
That expression is now parsed to:
MAnd (MOp <function>)
(MOr (MOr (MAnd (MOp <function>) (MOp <function>)) (MNot (MOr (MOp <function>) (MOp <function>))))
(MNot (MOp <function>)))
Which appears correct, and behaves correct in testing.
Also threw in a simplifier, so the final generated Matcher has less
unnecessary clutter in it. Mostly so that I could more easily read &
confirm them.
Also, added a simple test of the Matcher to the test suite.
There is a small chance of badly formed preferred content expressions
behaving differently than before due to this rewrite.
I hope this will be easier to reason about, and less buggy. It was
certianly easier to write!
An immediate benefit is that with a traversable queue of push requests to
select from, the threads can be a lot fairer about choosing which client to
service next.
As seen in this bug report, the lifted exception handling using the StateT
monad throws away state changes when an action throws an exception.
http://git-annex.branchable.com/bugs/git_annex_fork_bombs_on_gpg_file/
.. Which can result in cached values being redundantly calculated, or other
possibly worse bugs when the annex state gets out of sync with reality.
This switches from a StateT AnnexState to a ReaderT (MVar AnnexState).
All changes to the state go via the MVar. So when an Annex action is
running inside an exception handler, and it makes some changes, they
immediately go into affect in the MVar. If it then throws an exception
(or even crashes its thread!), the state changes are still in effect.
The MonadCatchIO-transformers change is actually only incidental.
I could have kept on using lifted-base for the exception handling.
However, I'd have needed to write a new instance of MonadBaseControl
for the new monad.. and I didn't write the old instance.. I begged Bas
and he kindly sent it to me. Happily, MonadCatchIO-transformers is
able to derive a MonadCatchIO instance for my monad.
This is a deep level change. It passes the test suite! What could it break?
Well.. The most likely breakage would be to code that runs an Annex action
in an exception handler, and *wants* state changes to be thrown away.
Perhaps the state changes leaves the state inconsistent, or wrong. Since
there are relatively few places in git-annex that catch exceptions in the
Annex monad, and the AnnexState is generally just used to cache calculated
data, this is unlikely to be a problem.
Oh yeah, this change also makes Assistant.Types.ThreadedMonad a bit
redundant. It's now entirely possible to run concurrent Annex actions in
different threads, all sharing access to the same state! The ThreadedMonad
just adds some extra work on top of that, with its own MVar, and avoids
such actions possibly stepping on one-another's toes. I have not gotten
rid of it, but might try that later. Being able to run concurrent Annex
actions would simplify parts of the Assistant code.
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.
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.
For an unknown reason, getAddrInfo currently is segfaulting. Note that
in February, I had used warpDebug, which uses getAddrInfo, and it worked.
Don't know if my toolchain has changed and broke it, or it's due to having
a different Android device now. Anyway, work around it by hardcoding the
address to use.
