One of my goals for this month is to get a better sense of how git-annex is
|
|
being used, how it's working out for people, and what areas need to be
|
|
concentrated on. To start on that, I am doing the
|
|
[2013 git-annex user survey](http://git-annex-survey.branchable.com/polls/2013/), similar to the git user
|
|
surveys. I will be adding some less general polls later (suggestions for
|
|
topics appreciated!), but you can go vote in any or all of 10 polls now.

Found a workaround for yesterday's Windows build problem. Seems that only
|
|
cabal runs gcc in a way that fails, so `ghc --make` builds is successfully.
|
|
However, the watcher doesn't quite work on Windows. It does get events when
|
|
files are created, but it seems to then hang before it can add the file to
|
|
git, or indeed finish printing out a debug log message about the event.
|
|
This looks like it could be a problem with the threaded ghc runtime on
|
|
Windows, or something like that.

Main work today was improving the git repository repair to handle corrupt
|
|
index files. The assistant can now start up, detect that the index file is
|
|
corrupt, and regenerate it all automatically.
