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.
There was confusion in different parts of the progress bar code about
whether an update contained the total number of bytes transferred, or the
number of bytes transferred since the last update. One way this bug
showed up was progress bars that seemed to stick at zero for a long time.
In order to fix it comprehensively, I add a new BytesProcessed data type,
that is explicitly a total quantity of bytes, not a delta.
Note that this doesn't necessarily fix every problem with progress bars.
Particularly, buffering can now cause progress bars to seem to run ahead
of transfers, reaching 100% when data is still being uploaded.
Both the directory and webdav special remotes used to have to buffer
the whole file contents before it could be decrypted, as they read
from chunks. Now the chunks are streamed through gpg with no buffering.
Transfer info files are updated when the callback is called, updating
the number of bytes transferred.
Left unused p variables at every place the callback should be used.
Which is rather a lot..
Currently only the web special remote is readonly, but it'd be possible to
also have readonly drives, or other remotes. These are handled in the
assistant by only downloading from them, and never trying to upload to
them.
This commit includes a paydown on technical debt incurred two years ago,
when I didn't know that it was bad to make custom Read and Show instances
for types. As the routes need Read and Show for Transfer, which includes a
Key, and deriving my own Read instance of key was not practical,
I had to finally clean that up.
So the compact Key read and show functions are now file2key and key2file,
and Read and Show are now derived instances.
Changed all code that used the old instances, compiler checked.
(There were a few places, particularly in Command.Unused, and the test
suite where the Show instance continue to be used for legitimate
comparisons; ie show key_x == show key_y (though really in a bloom filter))
Test suite now passes with -threaded!
I traced back all the hangs with -threaded to System.Cmd.Utils. It seems
it's just crappy/unsafe/outdated, and should not be used. System.Process
seems to be the cool new thing, so converted all the code to use it
instead.
In the process, --debug stopped printing commands it runs. I may try to
bring that back later.
Note that even SafeSystem was switched to use System.Process. Since that
was a modified version of code from System.Cmd.Utils, it needed to be
converted too. I also got rid of nearly all calls to forkProcess,
and all calls to executeFile, which I'm also doubtful about working
well with -threaded.
In order to record a semi-useful filename associated with the key,
this required plumbing the filename all the way through to the remotes'
storeKey and retrieveKeyFile.
Note that there is potential for deadlock here, narrowly avoided.
Suppose the repos are A and B. A sends file foo to B, and at the same
time, B gets file foo from A. So, A locks its upload transfer info file,
and then locks B's download transfer info file. At the same time,
B is taking the two locks in the opposite order. This is only not a
deadlock because the lock code does not wait, and aborts. So one of A or
B's transfers will be aborted and the other transfer will continue.
Whew!
annex.ssh-options, annex.rsync-options, annex.bup-split-options.
And adjust types to avoid the bugs that broke several config settings
recently. Now "annex." prefixing is enforced at the type level.
getConfig got a remote-specific config, and this confusing name caused it
to be used a couple of places that only were interested in global configs.
Rename to getRemoteConfig and make getConfig only get global configs.
There are no behavior changes here, but remote.<name>.annex-web-options
never actually worked (and per-remote web options is a very unlikely to be
useful case so I didn't make it work), so fix the documentation for it.
Supporting multiple directory hash types will allow converting to a
different one, without a flag day.
gitAnnexLocation now checks which of the possible locations have a file.
This means more statting of files. Several places currently use
gitAnnexLocation and immediately check if the returned file exists;
those need to be optimised.
git-annex-shell inannex now returns always 0, 1, or 100 (the last when
it's unclear if content is currently in the index due to it currently being
moved or dropped).
(Actual locking code still not yet written.)
Many functions took the repo as their first parameter. Changing it
consistently to be the last parameter allows doing some useful things with
currying, that reduce boilerplate.
In particular, g <- gitRepo is almost never needed now, instead
use inRepo to run an IO action in the repo, and fromRepo to get
a value from the repo.
This also provides more opportunities to use monadic and applicative
combinators.
Only one place need to filter the list of remotes for ignored remotes:
keyPossibilities. Make the full list available to everything else.
This allows getting rid of the special case handing for --from and --to
to make ignored remotes not be ignored with those options.
