* views: add automatically constructed file location metadataGravatar Joey Hess2014-02-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When constructing views, metadata is available about the location of the file in the view's reference branch. Allows incorporating parts of the directory hierarchy in a view. For example `git annex view tag=* podcasts/=*` makes a view in the form tag/showname. Performance impact: I benchmarked git annex view tag=* in the conference proceedings repo to take 6.459s before this change, and 6.544s after. FWIW, I considered making the syntax for this be podcasts/*, which might be easier for the user to learn. However, I think it's not as good: * The user has to then juggle two different syntaxes, and podcasts/* will be expanded by the shell so they also need to quote it, while podcasts/=* is unlikely to be expanded by the shell. * It would allow for things like podcasts/*/* and *.mp3 which do not map well into views.

* add tip about metadata driven views (and more flexible view filtering)Gravatar Joey Hess2014-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While writing this documentation, I realized that there needed to be a way to stay in a view like tag=* while adding a filter like tag=work that applies to the same field. So, there are really two ways a view can be refined. It can have a new "field=explicitvalue" filter added to it, which does not change the "shape" of the view, but narrows the files it shows. Or, it can have a new view added, which adds another level of subdirectories. So, added a vfilter command, which takes explicit values to add to the filter, and rejects changes that would change the shape of the view. And, made vadd only accept changes that change the shape of the view. And, changed the View data type slightly; now components that can match multiple metadata values can be visible, or not visible.

* pre-commit: Update metadata when committing changes to annexed files within ↵Gravatar Joey Hess2014-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | a view. So the user can now switch to a view and then move files around within it to manage metadata. For example, moving a file into a new directory when in the tags=* view adds a tag to it. Implementation is fairly efficient. One diff-index, which is no more expensive than the first stage of a git commit, followed by possibly some cat-file --batch traffic to find the key (when deleting a file). Very similar to what's done in direct mode when committing. And like direct mode when updating the WC after a merge, it has to buffer the diff-tree values in order to make 2 passes over them. When not in a view, pre-commit now does one extra git symbolic-ref, which is tiny overhead. This commit was sponsored by Andrew Eskridge.

* make view globs case-insensative, memoized, and bring back TFDAGravatar Joey Hess2014-02-19
| | | | | | I was careful to write the code so its clear how laziness memoizes it, although it's likely that much less explicit currying would have had the same effect. Verified that the memoization works using a Debug.Trace.

* remove Read instance for RefGravatar Joey Hess2014-02-19
| | | | | | | | Removed instance, got it all to build using fromRef. (With a few things that really need to show something using a ref for debugging stubbed out.) Then added back Read instance, and made Logs.View use it for serialization. This changes the view log format.

* add git annex view commandGravatar Joey Hess2014-02-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (And a vpop command, which is still a bit buggy.) Still need to do vadd and vrm, though this also adds their documentation. Currently not very happy with the view log data serialization. I had to lose the TDFA regexps temporarily, so I can have Read/Show instances of View. I expect the view log format will change in some incompatable way later, probably adding last known refs for the parent branch to View or something like that. Anyway, it basically works, although it's a bit slow looking up the metadata. The actual git branch construction is about as fast as it can be using the current git plumbing.

* limiting files based on metadataGravatar Joey Hess2014-02-13
| | | | | | Note that there is currently no caching, so --metadata foo=bar --metadata tag=blah will currently read the log 2x per file.

* rework annexed object locking in direct mode & support WindowsGravatar Joey Hess2014-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Seems that locking of annexed objects when they're being dropped was broken in direct mode: * When taking the lock before dropping, it created the .git/annex/objects file, as an empty file. It seems that the dropping code deleted that, but that is not right, and for all I know could in some situation cause a corrupted object to leak out. * When the lock was checked, it actually tried to open each direct mode file, and checked if it was locked. Not the same lock used above, and could also fail if some consumer of the file locked it. Fixed this, and added windows support by switching direct mode to lock a .lck file.

* fix transfers of key with no associated fileGravatar Joey Hess2014-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several places assumed this would not happen, and when the AssociatedFile was Nothing, did nothing. As part of this, preferred content checks pass the Key around. Note that checkMatcher is sometimes now called with Just Key and Just File. It currently constructs a FileMatcher, ignoring the Key. However, if it constructed a FileKeyMatcher, which contained both, then it might be possible to speed up parts of Limit, which currently call the somewhat expensive lookupFileKey to get the Key. I have not made this optimisation yet, because I am not sure if the key is always the same. Will need some significant checking to satisfy myself that's the case..

* benchmarked numcopies .gitattributes in preferred contentGravatar Joey Hess2014-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | Checking .gitattributes adds a full minute to a git annex find looking for files that don't have enough copies. 2:25 increasts to 3:27. I feel this is too much of a slowdown to justify making it the default. So, exposed two versions of the preferred content expression, a slow one and a fast but approximate one. I'm using the approximate one in the default preferred content expressions to avoid slowing down the assistant.

* Add and use numcopiesneeded preferred content expression.Gravatar Joey Hess2014-01-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Add numcopiesneeded preferred content expression. * Client, transfer, incremental backup, and archive repositories now want to get content that does not yet have enough copies. This means the asssistant will make copies of files that don't yet meet the configured numcopies, even to places that would not normally want the file. For example, if numcopies is 4, and there are 2 client repos and 2 transfer repos, and 2 removable backup drives, the file will be sent to both transfer repos in order to make 4 copies. Once a removable drive get a copy of the file, it will be dropped from one transfer repo or the other (but not both). Another example, numcopies is 3 and there is a client that has a backup removable drive and two small archive repos. Normally once one of the small archives has a file, it will not be put into the other one. But, to satisfy numcopies, the assistant will duplicate it into the other small archive too, if the backup repo is not available to receive the file. I notice that these examples are fairly unlikely setups .. the old behavior was not too bad, but it's nice to finally have it really correct. .. Almost. I have skipped checking the annex.numcopies .gitattributes out of fear it will be too slow. This commit was sponsored by Florian Schlegel.
* global numcopies settingGravatar Joey Hess2014-01-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * numcopies: New command, sets global numcopies value that is seen by all clones of a repository. * The annex.numcopies git config setting is deprecated. Once the numcopies command is used to set the global number of copies, any annex.numcopies git configs will be ignored. * assistant: Make the prefs page set the global numcopies. This global numcopies setting is needed to let preferred content expressions operate on numcopies. It's also convenient, because typically if you want git-annex to preserve N copies of files in a repo, you want it to do that no matter which repo it's running in. Making it global avoids needing to warn the user about gotchas involving inconsistent annex.numcopies settings. (See changes to doc/numcopies.mdwn.) Added a new variety of git-annex branch log file, that holds only 1 value. Will probably be useful for other stuff later. This commit was sponsored by Nicolas Pouillard.
