Git has an obnoxious special case in git config, a line "foo" is the same
as "foo = true". That means there is no way to examine the output of
git config and tell if it was run with --null or not, since a "foo"
in the first line could be such a boolean, or could be followed by its
value on the next line if --null were used.
So, rather than trying to do such a detection, track the style of config
at all the points where it's generated.
Fix serious regression in gcrypt and encrypted git-lfs remotes.
Since version 7.20200202.7, git-annex incorrectly stored content
on those remotes without encrypting it.
Problem was, Remote.Git enumerates all git remotes, including git-lfs
and gcrypt. It then dispatches to those. So, Remote.List used the
RemoteConfigParser from Remote.Git, instead of from git-lfs or gcrypt,
and that parser does not know about encryption fields, so did not
include them in the ParsedRemoteConfig. (Also didn't include other
fields specific to those remotes, perhaps chunking etc also didn't
get through.)
To fix, had to move RemoteConfig parsing down into the generate methods
of each remote, rather than doing it in Remote.List.
And a consequence of that was that ParsedRemoteConfig had to change to
include the RemoteConfig that got parsed, so that testremote can
generate a new remote based on an existing remote.
(I would have rather fixed this just inside Remote.Git, but that was not
practical, at least not w/o re-doing work that Remote.List already did.
Big ugly mostly mechanical patch seemed preferable to making git-annex
slower.)
remoteAnnexConfig will avoid bugs like
a3a674d15b
Use now more generic remoteConfig in a couple places that built
non-annex config settings manually before.
using git credential to get the password
One thing this doesn't do is wrap the password prompting inside the prompt
action. So with -J, the output can be a bit garbled.
Rather than leaking the name of the temp file, just say the config parse
failed, and where the config was downloaded from.
Not closing the bug report because two issues were reported in the same
bug report, because the universe wants me to continually re-read old
unclosed bug reports to waste my time determining what still needs to be
done.
Http remotes that do expose a git config file, but are not initialized
resulted in an ugly and unncessary error message, now sqelched.
When git-annex-shell configlist is run w/o the autoinit field, it may
not generate a uuid for the repository. So in that case, it's not
unexpected for the config it does list to not include a UUID, and
dumping out the config in a warning message is not needed.
If configlist is asked to autoinit and we don't get back a config with a
UUID in it, that suggests some problem, and what we got back may not be
a config at all but some diagnostic message, so it does make sense to
output it then.
Needed so Remote.External can query the external program for its
configs. When the external program does not support the query,
the passthrough option will make all input fields be available.
This is a first step toward that goal, using the ProposedAccepted type
in RemoteConfig lets initremote/enableremote reject bad parameters that
were passed in a remote's configuration, while avoiding enableremote
rejecting bad parameters that have already been stored in remote.log
This does not eliminate every place where a remote config is parsed and a
default value is used if the parse false. But, I did fix several
things that expected foo=yes/no and so confusingly accepted foo=true but
treated it like foo=no. There are still some fields that are parsed with
yesNo but not not checked when initializing a remote, and there are other
fields that are parsed in other ways and not checked when initializing a
remote.
This also lays groundwork for rejecting unknown/typoed config keys.
annex.largefiles can be configured by git-annex config, to more easily set
a default that will also be used by clones, without needing to shoehorn the
expression into the gitattributes file. The git config and gitattributes
override that.
Whenever something is added to git-annex config, we have to consider what
happens if a user puts a purposfully bad value in there. Or, if a new
git-annex adds some new value that an old git-annex can't parse.
In this case, a global annex.largefiles that can't be parsed currently
makes an error be thrown. That might not be ideal, but the gitattribute
behaves the same, and is almost equally repo-global.
Performance notes:
git-annex add and addurl construct a matcher once
and uses it for every file, so the added time penalty for reading the global
config log is minor. If the gitattributes annex.largefiles were deprecated,
git-annex add would get around 2% faster (excluding hashing), because
looking that up for each file is not fast. So this new way of setting
it is progress toward speeding up add.
git-annex smudge does need to load the log every time. As well as checking
the git attribute. Not ideal. Setting annex.gitaddtoannex=false avoids
both overheads.
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.
This will speed up the common case where a Key is deserialized from
disk, but is then serialized to build eg, the path to the annex object.
Previously attempted in 4536c93bb2
and reverted in 96aba8eff7.
The problems mentioned in the latter commit are addressed now:
Read/Show of KeyData is backwards-compatible with Read/Show of Key from before
this change, so Types.Distribution will keep working.
The Eq instance is fixed.
Also, Key has smart constructors, avoiding needing to remember to update
the cached serialization.
Used git-annex benchmark:
find is 7% faster
whereis is 3% faster
get when all files are already present is 5% faster
Generally, the benchmarks are running 0.1 seconds faster per 2000 files,
on a ram disk in my laptop.
* git-lfs: The url provided to initremote/enableremote will now be
stored in the git-annex branch, allowing enableremote to be used without
an url. initremote --sameas can be used to add additional urls.
* git-lfs: When there's a git remote with an url that's known to be
used for git-lfs, automatically enable the special remote.
Reasons to do this include:
1. I've gotten pretty used to git-annex's own progress display, which is
used for all transfers over ssh (except to old git-annex-shell),
and for most special remote transfers. It's getting to seem weird to see
the rsync progress display instead.
2. When -J was used, the rsync output could not be shown, and so there was
no progress display. Now there will be.
Progress will also be displayed now when cp CoW is used. But I'd expect a CoW
copy to typically run so fast that the progress display will barely be
noticable.

Convert Utility.Url to return Either String so the error message can be
displated in the annex monad and so captured.
(When curl is used, its errors are still not caught.)
warningIO is not concurrent output safe, and it doesn't go to
--json-error-messages
There are a few more that would be too hard to remove, and there are also
several dozen direct prints to stderr still.
This solves the problem of sameas remotes trampling over per-remote
state. Used for:
* per-remote state, of course
* per-remote metadata, also of course
* per-remote content identifiers, because two remote implementations
could in theory generate the same content identifier for two different
peices of content
While chunk logs are per-remote data, they don't use this, because the
number and size of chunks stored is a common property across sameas
remotes.
External special remote had a complication, where it was theoretically
possible for a remote to send SETSTATE or GETSTATE during INITREMOTE or
EXPORTSUPPORTED. Since the uuid of the remote is typically generate in
Remote.setup, it would only be possible to pass a Maybe
RemoteStateHandle into it, and it would otherwise have to construct its
own. Rather than go that route, I decided to send an ERROR in this case.
It seems unlikely that any existing external special remote will be
affected. They would have to make up a git-annex key, and set state for
some reason during INITREMOTE. I can imagine such a hack, but it doesn't
seem worth complicating the code in such an ugly way to support it.
Unfortunately, both TestRemote and Annex.Import needed the Remote
to have a new field added that holds its RemoteStateHandle.
tryGitConfigRead may run ensureInitialized first, but when checkuuid = false,
that is skipped. So, make sure it's run before all onLocal actions.
ensureInitialized is inexpensive, so the extra call by tryGitConfigRead
is not a big deal. But since it was easy to do, I made it only be run
once by all calls to onLocal.
A few calls to onLocal didn't call ensureInitialized before. Notably,
the checkPresent action didn't, and does now.
That means that there's a guarantee that any necessary repo upgrades
will be run before the checkPresent action runs in the repo. Which is
important especially for the direct mode conversion, because without
that upgrade, the checkPresent action would need to support direct mode
still. Now I can remove the last bits of direct mode support in
Annex.Content without worrying that it will break accessing remotes
that have not been upgraded.
This does necessarily mean that checkPresent needs to write to the disk
when performing such a repo upgrade. The other remote actions already
did, so retrieval from a readonly remote that needed to be upgraded would
fail. Having checkPresent also fail doesn't seem like a large reversion,
especially since it already failed in the default case when checkuuid = true.
The test suite was intermittently failing with rsync complaining it
could not write to dest.

rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1207) [sender=3.1.3]
It seems that the first rsync actually transferred the file, but then for some
reason git-annex thinks it failed, so it retries. The second rsync then fails
because the first rsync copied the file mode over and so the file is not
writable now.
So, this fixes that problem, but leaves open the question of why git-annex
would think rsync failed when it wrote the file and didn't output any
error message. Possibly a bug in rsyncProgress that either hides an
error message, or somehow makes rsync unhappy?
This is a special remote and a git remote at the same time; git can pull
and push to it and git-annex can use it as a special remote.
Remote.Git has to check if it's configured as a git-lfs special remote
and sets it up as one if so.
Object methods not implemented yet.
Improved probing when CoW copies can be made between files on the same
drive. Now supports CoW between BTRFS subvolumes. And, falls back to rsync
instead of using cp when CoW won't work, eg copies between repos on the
same EXT4 filesystem.
Rather than trying cp --reflink=always for each file copied to a remote,
it's tried once and if it fails it falls back to using rsync thereafter
for the lifetime of the Remote object. That avoids overhead of calling cp
which while small, will add up over a large number of files.

Installing git-annex with stack rsync won't be available.
Also, using the git-annex installer with 64 bit git installs a non-working
rsync binary because it's linked with libraries provided by 32 bit git.
What these generate is not really suitable to be used as a filename,
which is why keyFile and fileKey further escape it. These are just
serializing Keys.
Also removed a quickcheck test that was very unlikely to test anything
useful, since it relied on random chance creating something that looks
like a serialized key. The other test is sufficient for testing what
that was intended to test anyway.
The error message displayed used to only come from curl/wget and perhaps
was clearer than the one displayed now that http-client is used. In any
case, it does make sense to hide it because git-annex prints its own
warning message.

Does nothing yet.
Considered making bup readonly, but while the content can't be removed,
it is able to delete a branch, so didn't.

Added annex.commitmessage config that can specify a commit message for the
git-annex branch instead of the usual "update".
This commit was supported by the NSF-funded DataLad project.
Fix reversion introduced in version 6.20180316 that caused git-annex to
stop processing files when unable to contact a ssh remote.
The bug was not in any of the changed lines, but this one in inAnnex:
P2PHelper.checkpresent (Ssh.runProto rmt connpool (cantCheck rmt) fallback) key
cantCheck throws an exception, but that parameter to runProto expects a
value, which it returns. So, inAnnex is returning a Bool containing an
exception. This defeats the usual checks for checkPresent throwing an
exception, crashing git-annex.
Fixed by making runProto take an `Annex a` instead of an `a`, so
passing cantCheck to it doesn't nest exceptions.

Leveraged the existing verification code by making it also check the
retrievalSecurityPolicy.
Also, prevented getViaTmp from running the download action at all when the
retrievalSecurityPolicy is going to prevent verifying and so storing it.
Added annex.security.allow-unverified-downloads. A per-remote version
would be nice to have too, but would need more plumbing, so KISS.
(Bill the Cat reference not too over the top I hope. The point is to
make this something the user reads the documentation for before using.)
A few calls to verifyKeyContent and getViaTmp, that don't
involve downloads from remotes, have RetrievalAllKeysSecure hard-coded.
It was also hard-coded for P2P.Annex and Command.RecvKey,
to match the values of the corresponding remotes.
A few things use retrieveKeyFile/retrieveKeyFileCheap without going
through getViaTmp.
* Command.Fsck when downloading content from a remote to verify it.
That content does not get into the annex, so this is ok.
* Command.AddUrl when using a remote to download an url; this is new
content being added, so this is ok.

This will be used to protect against CVE-2018-10859, where an encrypted
special remote is fed the wrong encrypted data, and so tricked into
decrypting something that the user encrypted with their gpg key and did
not store in git-annex.
It also protects against CVE-2018-10857, where a remote follows a http
redirect to a file:// url or to a local private web server. While that's
already been prevented in git-annex's own use of http, external special
remotes, hooks, etc use other http implementations and could still be
vulnerable.
The policy is not yet enforced, this commit only adds the appropriate
metadata to remotes.

In keyUrls, the GitConfig is used only by annexLocations
to support configured Differences. Since such configurations affect all
clones of a repository, the local repo's GitConfig must have the same
information as the remote's GitConfig would have. So, used getGitConfig
to get the local GitConfig, which is cached and so available cheaply.
That actually fixed a bug noone had ever noticed: keyUrls is
used for remotes accessed over http. The full git config of such a
remote is normally not available, so the remoteGitConfig that keyUrls
used would not have the necessary information in it.
In copyFromRemoteCheap', it uses gitAnnexLocation,
which does need the GitConfig of the remote repo itself in order to
check if it's crippled, supports symlinks, etc. So, made the
State include that GitConfig, cached. The use of gitAnnexLocation is
within a (not $ Git.repoIsUrl repo) guard, so it's local, and so
its git config will always be read and available.
(Note that gitAnnexLocation in turn calls annexLocations, so the
Differences config it uses in this case comes from the remote repo's
GitConfig and not from the local repo's GitConfig. As explained above
this is ok since they must have the same value.)
Not very happy with this mess of different GitConfigs not type-safe and
some read only sometimes etc. Very hairy. Think I got it this change
right. Test suite passes..
