This also added for free drop with +`--unused` and `--key`, which overlap with `git annexdropunused` and +`git annex dropkey`. + +The `concurrentprogress` branch had gone too long without being merged, and +had a lot of merge conflicts. I resolved those, and went ahead and merged +it into master. However, since the ascii-progress library is not ready yet, +I made it a build flag, and it will build without it by default. So, `git +annex get -J5` can be used now, but no progress bars will display yet. + +When doing concurrent downloads, either with the new -J or by hand by +running multiple processes, there was a bug in the diskreserve +checking code. It didn't consider the disk space that was in the process of +being used by other concurrent downloads, so would let more downloads +start up than there was space for. + +I was able to fix this pretty easily, thanks to the transfer log files. +Those were originally added just to let the webapp display transfers, but +proved very helpful here! + +Finally, made .git/annex/transfer/failed/ files stop accumulating when the +assistant is not being used. Looked into also cleaning up stale +.git/annex/transfer/{upload,download}/ files (from interrupted transfers). +But, since those are used as lock files, it's difficult to remove them +in a concurrency safe way. |
