But, it's buggy: the server hangs without processing the VALIDITY,
and I can't seem to work out why. As far as I can see, storefile
is getting as far as running the validitycheck, which is supposed to
read that, but never does.
This is especially strange because what seems like the same protocol
doesn't hang when servePut runs it. This made me think that it needed
to use inAnnexWorker to be more like servePut, but that didn't help.
Another small problem with this is that it does create an empty
.git/annex/tmp/ file for the key. Since this will usually be used in
combination with servePut, that doesn't seem worth worrying about much.
This means that when the client sends a truncated data to indicate
invalidity, DATA is not passed the full expected data. That leaves the
P2P connection in a state where it cannot be reused. While so far, they
are not reused, they will be later when proxies are supported. So, have
to close the P2P connection in this situation.
Always truncate instead. The padding risked something not noticing the
content was bad and getting a file that was corrupted in a novel way
with the padding "X" at the end. A truncated file is better.
Made the data-length header required even for v0. This simplifies the
implementation, and doesn't preclude extra verification being done for
v0.
The connectionWaitVar is an ugly hack. In servePut, nothing waits
on the waitvar, and I could not find a good way to make anything wait on
it.
This came down to SendBytes waiting on the waitv. Nothing ever filled
it.
Only Annex.Proxy needs the waitv, and it handles filling it. So make it
optional.
Added v2-v0 endpoints. These are tedious, but will be needed in order to
use the HTTP protocol to proxy to repositories with older git-annex,
where git-annex-shell will be speaking an older version of the protocol.
Changed GET to use 422 when the content is not present. 404 is needed to
detect when a protocol version is not supported.
The error message is not displayed to the use, but this mirrors the
behavior when a regular get from a special remote fails. At least now
there is not a protocol error.
