git-annex find is now RawFilePath end to end, no string conversions.
So is git-annex get when it does not need to get anything.
So this is a major milestone on optimisation.
Benchmarks indicate around 30% speedup in both commands.
Probably many other performance improvements. All or nearly all places
where a file is statted use RawFilePath now.
Adds a dependency on filepath-bytestring, an as yet unreleased fork of
filepath that operates on RawFilePath.
Git.Repo also changed to use RawFilePath for the path to the repo.
This does eliminate some RawFilePath -> FilePath -> RawFilePath
conversions. And filepath-bytestring's </> is probably faster.
But I don't expect a major performance improvement from this.
This is mostly groundwork for making Annex.Location use RawFilePath,
which will allow for a conversion-free pipleline.
The parser and looking up config keys in the map should both be faster
due to using ByteString.
I had hoped this would speed up startup time, but any improvement to
that was too small to measure. Seems worth keeping though.
Note that the parser breaks up the ByteString, but a config map ends up
pointing to the config as read, which is retained in memory until every
value from it is no longer used. This can change memory usage
patterns marginally, but won't affect git-annex.
Finally builds (oh the agoncy of making it build), but still very
unmergable, only Command.Find is included and lots of stuff is badly
hacked to make it compile.
Benchmarking vs master, this git-annex find is significantly faster!
Specifically:
num files old new speedup
48500 4.77 3.73 28%
12500 1.36 1.02 66%
20 0.075 0.074 0% (so startup time is unchanged)
That's without really finishing the optimization. Things still to do:
* Eliminate all the fromRawFilePath, toRawFilePath, encodeBS,
decodeBS conversions.
* Use versions of IO actions like getFileStatus that take a RawFilePath.
* Eliminate some Data.ByteString.Lazy.toStrict, which is a slow copy.
* Use ByteString for parsing git config to speed up startup.
It's likely several of those will speed up git-annex find further.
And other commands will certianly benefit even more.
Goal is to make git-annex faster by using ByteString for all the
worktree traversal. For now, this is focusing on Command.Find,
in order to benchmark how much it helps. (All other commands are
temporarily disabled)
Currently in a very bad unbuildable in-between state.
See the comment for a trace of the deadlock.
Added a new StartStage. New worker threads begin in the StartStage.
Once a thread is ready to do work, it moves away from the StartStage,
and no thread will ever transition back to it.
A thread that blocks waiting on another thread that is processing
the same key will block while in the StartStage. That other thread
will never switch back to the StartStage, and so the deadlock is avoided.
Drop support for building with ghc older than 8.4.4, and with older
versions of serveral haskell libraries than will be included in Debian 10.
The only remaining version ifdefs in the entire code base are now a couple
for aws!
This commit should only be merged after the Debian 10 release.
And perhaps it will need to wait longer than that; it would make
backporting new versions of git-annex to Debian 9 (stretch) which
has been actively happening as recently as this year.
This commit was sponsored by Ilya Shlyakhter.
When all worker threads are running and enteringStage is called,
it waits for an idle slot. If all off the other threads then call it in
turn, a deadlock occurrs.
This is the same problem I didn't actually fix in
5a9842d7ed.
Fixed by doing two separate STM transactions, the first replaces its
active thread with an idle thread, and the second waits for another idle
thread. That guarantees there will eventually be an idle thread to find.
The changes to WorkerPool were necessary because it can't add an idle
thread containing the Annex state and go on to run an action using that
same state, so I had to remove the Annex state from IdleWorker.
Rather than limiting it to PerformStage and CleanupStage, this opens it
up so any number of stages can be added as needed by commands.
Each concurrent command has a set of stages that it uses, and only
transitions between those can block waiting for a free slot in the
worker pool. Calling enteringStage for some other stage does not block,
and has very little overhead.
Note that while before the Annex state was duplicated on the first call
to commandAction, this now happens earlier, in startConcurrency.
That means that seek stage actions should that use startConcurrency
and then modify Annex state won't modify the state of worker threads
they then start. I audited all of them, and only Command.Seek
did so; prepMerge changes the working directory and so has to come
before startConcurrency.
Also, the remote list is built before duplicating the state, which means
that it gets built earlier now than it used to. This would only have an
effect of making commands that end up not needing to perform any actions
unncessary build the remote list (only when they're run with concurrency
enable), but that's a minor overhead compared to commands seeking
through the work tree and determining they don't need to do anything.
I couldn't find a way to avoid the deadlock w/o rewriting it to clearly
not have one. I'm not quite sure what was the actual cause of the
deadlock.
This makes me unsure how I now know it clearly doesn't have a
deadlock. But, it was easy to reproduce before (just call it twice in a
row) and doesn't happen now.
Oh joyous day, this is probably git-annex's oldest implementation wart,
source of much unncessary bother.
Now that we have a StartMessage, showEndResult' can look at it to know
if it needs to display an end message or not.
This is also going to be faster, because it avoids an uncessary state
lookup for each file processed.
The hoped for optimisation of CommandStart with -J did not materialize.
In fact, not runnign CommandStart in parallel is slower than -J3.
So, CommandStart are still run in parallel.
(The actual bad performance I've been seeing with -J in my big repo
has to do with building the remoteList.)
But, this is still progress toward making -J faster, because it gets rid
of the onlyActionOn roadblock in the way of making CommandCleanup jobs
run separate from CommandPerform jobs.
Added OnlyActionOn constructor for ActionItem which fixes the
onlyActionOn breakage in the last commit.
Made CustomOutput include an ActionItem, so even things using it can
specify OnlyActionOn.
In Command.Move and Command.Sync, there were CommandStarts that used
includeCommandAction, so output messages, which is no longer allowed.
Fixed by using startingCustomOutput, but that's still not quite right,
since it prevents message display for the includeCommandAction run
inside it too.
The goal is to be able to run CommandStart in the main thread when -J is
used, rather than unncessarily passing it off to a worker thread, which
incurs overhead that is signficant when the CommandStart is going to
quickly decide to stop.
To do that, the message it displays needs to be displayed in the worker
thread, after the CommandStart has run.
Also, the change will mean that CommandStart will no longer necessarily
run with the same Annex state as CommandPerform. While its docs already
said it should avoid modifying Annex state, I audited all the
CommandStart code as part of the conversion. (Note that CommandSeek
already sometimes runs with a different Annex state, and that has not been
a source of any problems, so I am not too worried that this change will
lead to breakage going forward.)
The only modification of Annex state I found was it calling
allowMessages in some Commands that default to noMessages. Dealt with
that by adding a startCustomOutput and a startingUsualMessages.
This lets a command start with noMessages and then select the output it
wants for each CommandStart.
One bit of breakage: onlyActionOn has been removed from commands that used it.
The plan is that, since a StartMessage contains an ActionItem,
when a Key can be extracted from that, the parallel job runner can
run onlyActionOn' automatically. Then commands won't need to worry about
this detail. Future work.
Otherwise, this was a fairly straightforward process of making each
CommandStart compile again. Hopefully other behavior changes were mostly
avoided.
In a few cases, a command had a CommandStart that called a CommandPerform
that then called showStart multiple times. I have collapsed those
down to a single start action. The main command to perhaps suffer from it
is Command.Direct, which used to show a start for each file, and no
longer does.
Another minor behavior change is that some commands used showStart
before, but had an associated file and a Key available, so were changed
to ShowStart with an ActionItemAssociatedFile. That will not change the
normal output or behavior, but --json output will now include the key.
This should not break it for anyone using a real json parser.
659640e224 was buggy, it had a STM
deadlock because two actions both wanted to takeTMVar the WorkerPool
and so blocked one-another.
Fixed by completely reworking how the pool is maintained. Maintenace
threads now wait for the Async actions and update the WorkerPool. This
means twice as many threads as before, but green threads so will only
use a few extra bytes ram per thread.
When running multiple concurrent actions, the cleanup phase is run in a
separate queue than the main action queue. This can make some commands
faster, because less time is spent on bookkeeping in between each file
transfer.
But as far as I can see, nothing will be sped up much by this yet, because
all the existing cleanup actions are very light-weight. This is just groundwork
for deferring checksum verification to cleanup time.
This change does mean that if the user expects -J2 will mean that they see no
more than 2 jobs running at a time, they may be surprised to see 4 in some
cases (if the cleanup actions are slow enough to notice).
It might also make sense to enable background cleanup without the -J,
for at least one cleanup action. Indeed, that's the behavior that -J1
has now. At some point in the future, it make make sense to make the
behavior with no -J the same as -J1. The only reason it's not currently
is that git-annex can build w/o concurrent-output, and also any bugs
in concurrent-output (such as perhaps misbehaving on non-VT100 compatible
terminals) are avoided by default by only using it when -J is used.
Added the ability to run one job per CPU (core), by setting annex.jobs=cpus,
or using option --jobs=cpus or -Jcpus.
Built with future expansion in mind, including not defaulting matching on
Concurrency so more constructors can later be added, and using "cpu"
instead of "0".
This does not change the overall license of the git-annex program, which
was already AGPL due to a number of sources files being AGPL already.
Legally speaking, I'm adding a new license under which these files are
now available; I already released their current contents under the GPL
license. Now they're dual licensed GPL and AGPL. However, I intend
for all my future changes to these files to only be released under the
AGPL license, and I won't be tracking the dual licensing status, so I'm
simply changing the license statement to say it's AGPL.
(In some cases, others wrote parts of the code of a file and released it
under the GPL; but in all cases I have contributed a significant portion
of the code in each file and it's that code that is getting the AGPL
license; the GPL license of other contributors allows combining with
AGPL code.)
Added graftTree but it's buggy.
Should use graftTree in Annex.Branch.graftTreeish; it will be faster
than the current implementation there.
Started Annex.Import, but untested and it doesn't yet handle tree
grafting.
* fromkey: Added --json.
* fromkey --batch output changed to support using it with --json.
The old output was not parseable for any useful information, so
this is not expected to break anything.
No deprecation warning at run time, just one on the man page.
One thing findref remains able to do that find cannot is to run in a bare
repo. Find was made to refuse to run in a bare repo because it seemed
confusing for it to not list any files ever in that situation. It would be
better for find --branch to work in a bare repo but not without --branch
but I don't currently have a way to do that.
Probably a better solution would be to make git-annex in a bare repo
default to --branch master or something like that instead of --all.

* findref: Support file matching options: --include, --exclude,

* Commands supporting --branch now apply file matching options --include,

Previously, combining --branch with those would fail to match anything.
* add, import, findref: Support --time-limit.

When a command is operating on multiple files and there's an error with
one, try harder to continue to the rest. (As was already done for many
types of errors including IO errors.)
This handles cases like lockContentForRemoval throwing an exception when
the content is already locked. Just because a drop of one file fails, does
not mean it shouldn't go on to try to drop other files.
I looked over uses of `giveup` in Command/*; there are too many to check
them all extensively, but none stood out as being problems that should let
one commandAction stop running other commandActions. Worst case, something
bad will happen and rather than stopping right away with an error,
git-annex will display multiple errors as it fails over and over on each
file. I don't think I ever really intended `error`/`giveup` to stop other
commandActions; this was a relic of old confusion over haskell exception
handling.
Test suite passes.

Of course, it wasn't used much in those modes, because normal output is
avoided. But it was still initialized and used in a few places,
including a call to hideRegionsWhile.
This relies on git ls-files --with-tree, which I'm using in a way that
its man page does not document. Hm. I emailed the git list to try to get
the docs improved, but at least the git test suite does test the same
kind of use case I'm using here.
Performance impact when not in an adjusted branch is limited to some
additional MVar accesses, and a single git call to determine the name of
the current branch. So very minimal.
When in an adjusted branch, the performance impact is
in Annex.WorkTree.lookupFile, which starts doing an equal amount of work
for files that didn't exist as it already did for files that were
unlocked.

Running git-annex linux builds in termux seems to work well enough that the
only reason to keep the Android app would be to support Android 4-5, which
the old Android app supported, and which I don't know if the termux method
works on (although I see no reason why it would not).
According to [1], Android 4-5 remains on around 29% of devices, down from
51% one year ago.

This is a rather large commit, but mostly very straightfoward removal of
android ifdefs and patches and associated cruft.
Also, removed support for building with very old ghc < 8.0.1, and with
yesod < 1.4.3, and without concurrent-output, which were only being used
by the cross build.
Some documentation specific to the Android app (screenshots etc) needs
to be updated still.

Added -z option to git-annex commands that use --batch, useful for
supporting filenames containing newlines.
It only controls input to --batch, the output will still be line delimited
unless --json or etc is used to get some other output. While git often
makes -z affect both input and output, I don't like trying them together,
and making it affect output would have been a significant complication,
and also git-annex output is generally not intended to be machine parsed,
unless using --json or a format option.
Commands that take pairs like "file key" still separate them with a space
in --batch mode. All such commands take care to support filenames with
spaces when parsing that, so there was no need to change it, and it would
have needed significant changes to the batch machinery to separate tose
with a null.
To make fromkey and registerurl support -z, I had to give them a --batch
option. The implicit batch mode they enter when not provided with input
parameters does not support -z as that would have complicated option
parsing. Seemed better to move these toward using the same --batch as
everything else, though the implicit batch mode can still be used.

The new second pass sees the file as type changed because the first
pass's changes have typically not reached git yet. So, have to
explicitly check for unmodified files in the second pass.
Note that, if the file has been touched but not really modified,
the first pass will handle it, and so the second pass does nothing.
This commit was sponsored by Jochen Bartl on Patreon.
v6: When a file is unlocked but has not been modified, and the unlocking is
only staged, git-annex add did not lock it. Now it will, for consistency
with how modified files are handled and with v5.
Note the removal of the sameInodeCache check. Otherwise it would see
that the unmodified file is unmodified and stop there. That check seems to have
been copied from the direct mode branch. But, direct mode had a specific
reason to check for unmodified content, that does not apply to v6.
The second pass means there is potential for a race, eg the unlocked
file could be modified in between the first and second passes.
No problem with that, since both passes do the same thing.

When --batch is used with matching options like --in, --metadata, etc, only
operate on the provided files when they match those options. Otherwise, a
blank line is output in the batch protocol.
Affected commands: find, add, whereis, drop, copy, move, get
In the case of find, the documentation for --batch already said it honored
the matching options. The docs for the rest didn't, but it makes sense to
have them honor them. While this is a behavior change, why specify the
matching options with --batch if you didn't want them to apply?
Note that the batch output for all of the affected commands could
already output a blank line in other cases, so batch users should
already be prepared to deal with it.
git-annex metadata didn't seem worth making support the matching options,
since all it does is output metadata or set metadata, the use cases for
using it in combination with the martching options seem small. Made it
refuse to run when they're combined, leaving open the possibility for later
support if a use case develops.

Useful for dropping old objects from cache repositories.
But also, quite a genrally useful thing to have..
Rather than imitiating find's -atime and other options, all of which are
pretty horrible to use, I made this match files accessed within a time
period, using the same duration format used by git-annex schedule and
--limit-time
In passing, changed the --limit-time option parser to parse the
duration, instead of having it later throw an error.

In Annex.Branch.branch, the (++) was killing laziness.
Rewrote so it streams lazily.
filterM also kills laziness, so made loggedKeys use a Unchecked type,
and check if the key is dead in the seek loop.
Note that loggedKeysFor still buffers, so git-annex info <remote> and
git-annex unused --from remote still use more memory than necessary.
Also removed some unused functions from Annex.Journal.
Test case is 24 directories each containing files named 1..10000.
The concat and filterM destroyed what laziness there is in
dirContentsRecursive, making it buffer all the filenames. Memory
use was around 300 mb (possibly growing slightly as it progressed).
After this fix, memory use drops to a constant 59 mb.
Note that dirContentsRecursive still buffers the entire content of a
directory (not subdirectories) so this is still not optimal.
Unfortunately ReceiveMessage didn't handle unknown messages the way it
was documented to; client sending VERSION would cause the server to
return an ERROR and hang up. Fixed that, but old releases of git-annex
use the P2P protocol for tor and will still have that behavior.
So, version is not negotiated for Remote.P2P connections, only for
Remote.Git connections, which will support VERSION from their first
release. There will need to be a later flag day to change Remote.P2P;
left a commented out line that is the only thing that will need to be
changed then.
Version 1 of the P2P protocol is not implemented yet, but updated
the docs for the DATA change that will be allowed by that version.

And for tab completion, by not unnessessarily statting paths to remotes,

Got rid of the remotes member of Git.Repo. This was a bit painful.
Remote.Git modifies the list of remotes as it reads their configs,
so still need a persistent list of remotes. So, put it in as
Annex.gitremotes. It's only populated by getGitRemotes, so commands
like examinekey that don't care about remotes won't do so.

This avoids all the complication about redundant work discussed in
the previous try at fixing this. At the expense of needing each command
that could have the problem to be patched to simply wrap the action in
onlyActionOn once the key is known. But there do not seem to be many
such commands.
onlyActionOn' should not be used with a CommandStart (or CommandPerform),
although the types do allow it. onlyActionOn handles running the whole
CommandStart chain. I couldn't immediately see a way to avoid mistken
use of onlyActionOn'.

git annex add, git annex lock etc make multiple seek passes,

CmdLine/GitAnnex/Options.hs now uses action "file" in cmdParams,

lets it complete filenames too. But it does not seem to break the bash
completions. It is needed for zsh; the zsh completion otherwise
does not complete filenames. The fish completion will always complete

See my comment. This only avoids the problem for -J; two git-annex

Fix bug when used with a recently cloned repository, where
"merging" messages were included in the output of configlist (and perhaps
other commands) and caused a "Failed to get annex.uuid configuration"
error.
This does not seem to have been a reversion.
I saw this with configlist, but it seems possible for other commands to be
effected, and it might not always happen only after a fresh clone. Eg, if a
foo/git-annex branch is pushed to the remote, the next git-annex-shell will
auto-merge it and display the message.
Decided to run all git-annex-shell commands with noMessages,
even ones that don't currently use stdout for structured communication.
Better to keep open the possibility for using stdout in the future.

It was relying on segmentPaths to work correctly, so when it didn't,
sometimes the file that did not exist got matched up with a non-null
list of results. Fixed by always checking if each parameter exists.
There are two reason segmentPaths might not work correctly.
For one, it assumes that when the original list of paths
has more than 100 paths, it's not worth paying the CPU cost to
preserve input orders.
And then, it fails when a directory such as "." or ".." or
/path/to/repo is in the input list, and the list of found paths
does not start with that same thing. It should probably not be using
dirContains, but something else.
But, it's not clear how to handle this fully. Consider
when [".", "subdir"] has been expanded by git ls-files to
["subdir/1", "subdir/2"]
-- Both of the inputs contained those results, so there's
no one right answer for segmentPaths. All these would be equally valid:
[["subdir/1", "subdir/2"], []]
[[], ["subdir/1", "subdir/2"]]
[["subdir/1"], [""subdir/2"]]
So I've not tried to improve segmentPaths.
Added --securehash option to match files using a secure hash function, and
corresponding securehash preferred content expression.

Where before the "name" of a key and a backend was a string, this makes
it a concrete data type.
This is groundwork for allowing some varieties of keys to be disabled
in file2key, so git-annex won't use them at all.
Benchmarks ran in my big repo:
old git-annex info:
real 0m3.338s
user 0m3.124s
sys 0m0.244s
new git-annex info:
real 0m3.216s
user 0m3.024s
sys 0m0.220s
new git-annex find:
real 0m7.138s
user 0m6.924s
sys 0m0.252s
old git-annex find:
real 0m7.433s
user 0m7.240s
sys 0m0.232s
Surprising result; I'd have expected it to be slower since it now parses
all the key varieties. But, the parser is very simple and perhaps
sharing KeyVarieties uses less memory or something like that.

ghc 8 added backtraces on uncaught errors. This is great, but git-annex was

used to use error, so had a backtrace.

Tor unfortunately does not come out of the box configured to let hidden
services register themselves on the fly via the ControlPort.
And, changing the config to enable the ControlPort and a particular type
of auth for it may break something already using the ControlPort, or
lessen the security of the system.
So, this leaves only one option to us: Add a hidden service to the
torrc. git-annex enable-tor does so, and picks an unused high port for
tor to listen on for connections to the hidden service.
It's up to the caller to somehow pick a local port to listen on
that won't be used by something else. That may be difficult to do..

This makes -Jn work with --json and --quiet, where before
setting -Jn disabled those options.
Concurrent json output is currently a mess though since threads output
chunks over top of one-another.
Note that get --from foo --failed will get things that a previous get --from bar
tried and failed to get, etc. I considered making --failed only retry
transfers from the same remote, but it was easier, and seems more useful,
to not have the same remote requirement.
Noisy due to some refactoring into Types/
Show branch:file that is being operated on.
I had to make ActionItem a type and not a type class because
withKeyOptions' passed two different types of values when using the type
class, and I could not get the type checker to accept that.
Added --branch option to copy, drop, fsck, get, metadata, mirror, move, and
whereis commands. This option makes git-annex operate on files that are
included in a specified branch (or other treeish).
The names of the files from the branch that are being operated on are not
displayed yet; only the keys. Displaying the filenames will need changes
to every affected command.
Also, note that --branch can be specified repeatedly. This is not really
documented, but seemed worth supporting, especially since we may later want
the ability to operate on all branches matching a refspec. However, when
operating on two branches that contain the same key, that key will be
operated on twice.
"git annex adjust" may be a temporary interface, but works for a proof of
concept.
It is pretty fast at creating the adjusted branch. The main overhead is
injecting pointer files. It might be worth optimising that by reusing the
symlink target as the pointer file content. When I tried to do that,
the problem was that the clean filter doesn't use that same format, and so
git thought files had changed. Could be dealt with, perhaps make the clean
filter use symlink format for pointer files when on an adjusted branch?
But the real overhead is in checking out the branch, when git runs the
smudge filter once per file. That is perhaps too slow to be usable,
although it may only affect initial checkout of the branch, and not
updates. TBD.
Instead -J will behave as if it was built without concurrent-output support
in this situation. Ie, it will be mostly quiet, except when there's an
error.
Note that it's not a problem for a filename to contain invalid utf-8 when
in a utf-8 locale. That is handled ok by concurrent-output. It's only
displaying unicode characters in a non-unicode locale that doesn't work.
* Removed the webapp-secure build flag, rolling it into the webapp build
flag.
* Removed the quvi and tahoe build flags, which only adds aeson to
the core dependencies.
* Removed the feed build flag, which only adds feed to the core
dependencies.
Build flags have cost in both code complexity and also make Setup configure
have to work harder to find a usable set of build flags when some
dependencies are missing.
When Config.setConfig runs, it throws away the old Repo and loads a new
one. So, add an action to adjust the Repo so that -c settings will persist
across that.
This allows things like Command.Find to use noMessages and generate their
own complete json objects. Previouly, Command.Find managed that only via a
hack, which wasn't compatable with batch mode.
Only Command.Find, Command.Smudge, and Commange.Status use noMessages
currently, and none except for Command.Find are impacted by this change.
Fixes find --json --batch output
Previously, it only flushed when the queue got larger than 1.
Also, make the queue auto-flush when items are added, rather than needing
to be flushed as a separate step. This simplifies the code and make it more
efficient too, as it avoids needing to read the queue out of the state to
check if it should be flushed.
The benchmark shows that the database access is quite fast indeed!
And, it scales linearly to the number of keys, with one exception,
getAssociatedKey.
Based on this benchmark, I don't think I need worry about optimising
for cases where all files are locked and the database is mostly empty.
In those cases, database access will be misses, and according to this
benchmark, should add only 50 milliseconds to runtime.
(NB: There may be some overhead to getting the database opened and locking
the handle that this benchmark doesn't see.)

The direct flag is also set when sending unlocked content, to support old
versions of git-annex-shell. At some point, the direct flag will be
removed, and only the unlocked flag will be used.
This only adds 1 stat to each file fscked for locked files, so
added overhead is minimal.
For unlocked files it has to access the database to see if a file
is modified.
Backend.lookupFile is changed to always fall back to catKey when
operating on a file that's not a symlink.
catKey is changed to understand pointer files, as well as annex symlinks.
Before, catKey needed a file mode witness, to be sure it was looking at a
symlink. That was complicated stuff. Now, it doesn't actually care if a
file in git is a symlink or not; in either case asking git for the content
of the file will get the pointer to the key.
This does mean that git-annex will treat a link
foo -> WORM--bar as a git-annex file, and also treats
a regular file containing annex/objects/WORM--bar as a git-annex file.
Calling catKey could make git-annex commands need to do more work than
before. This would especially be the case if a repo contained many regular
files, and only a few annexed files, as now git-annex will need to ask
git about the contents of the regular files.
The git filter config can be used to map the single git-annex command to
the 2 actions, and this avoids "git annex clean" being used for this thing,
it might have a better use for that name later.
Commands that want to use it have to run their seek action inside
allowConcurrentOutput. Which seems reasonable; perhaps some future command
will want to support the -J flag but not use regions.
The region state moved from Annex to MessageState. This makes sense
organizationally, and note that some uses of onLocal use a different Annex
state, but pass the MessageState into it, which is what is needed.
This was potentially a hole in the readonly mode armor even before my last
commit. If the user could push a git-annex branch to a repo, they could get
git-annex-shell to initialize the repo. After my last commit, the user
didn't even need to be allowed to push a branch to init the repo, so
this hole certianly needs to be closed now.
Now it suffices to run git remote add, followed by git-annex sync. Now the
remote is automatically initialized for use by git-annex, where before the
git-annex branch had to manually be pushed before using git-annex sync.
Note that this involved changes to git-annex-shell, so if the remote is
using an old version, the manual push is still needed.
Implementation required git-annex-shell be changed, so configlist can
autoinit a repository even when no git-annex branch has been pushed yet.
Unfortunate because we'll have to wait for it to get deployed to servers
before being able to rely on this change in the documentation.
Did consider making git-annex sync push the git-annex branch to repos that
didn't have a uuid, but this seemed difficult to do without complicating it
in messy ways.
It would be cleaner to split a command out from configlist to handle
the initialization. But this is difficult without sacrificing backwards
compatability, for users of old git-annex versions which would not use the
new command.
Work around https://github.com/pcapriotti/optparse-applicative/issues/146
by not using action "file" and instead passing -o bashdefault -o default
to complete. This way, when optparse fails to complete a filename, bash
will fall back to regular filename completion.
Unfortunately, optparse-applicative does not provide a way to control the
options passed to complete, so I had to modify its generated completion script.
Note that for "git annex" command completion, git's completion script already
used -o bashdefault -o default, so that works too.
Note that I ran into a problem where parsing the global options looped
forever, eating memory. It was somehow caused by stacking
combineGlobalSetters inside a combineGlobalSetters. Maybe due to both
using "many"? Anyway, changed things to avoid that.
This is a work in progress. It compiles and is able to do basic command
dispatch, including git autocorrection, while using optparse-applicative
for the core commandline parsing.
* Many commands are temporarily disabled before conversion.
* Options are not wired in yet.
* cmdnorepo actions don't work yet.
Also, removed the [Command] list, which was only used in one place.
