* fold Build/SysConfig.hs into BuildInfo via includeGravatar Joey Hess2017-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | | This avoids warnings from stack about the module not being listed in the cabal file. So, the generated file is also renamed to Build/SysConfig. Note that the setup program seems to be cached despite these changes; I had to cabal clean to get cabal to update it so that Build/SysConfig was written.

* add exporter thread to assistantGravatar Joey Hess2017-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is similar to the pusher thread, but a separate thread because git pushes can be done in parallel with exports, and updating a big export should not prevent other git pushes going out in the meantime. The exportThread only runs at most every 30 seconds, since updating an export is more expensive than pushing. This may need to be tuned. Added a separate channel for export commits; the committer records a commit in that channel. Also, reconnectRemotes records a dummy commit, to make the exporter thread wake up and make sure all exports are up-to-date. So, connecting a drive with a directory special remote export will immediately update it, and getting online will automatically update S3 and WebDAV exports. The transfer queue is not involved in exports. Instead, failed exports are retried much like failed pushes. This commit was sponsored by Ewen McNeill.
* remove xmpp supportGravatar Joey Hess2016-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | I've long considered the XMPP support in git-annex a wart. It's nice to remove it. (This also removes the NetMessager, which was only used for XMPP, and the daemonstatus's desynced list (likewise).) Existing XMPP remotes should be ignored by git-annex.

* When re-execing git-annex, use current program location, rather than ↵Gravatar Joey Hess2015-02-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ~/.config/git-annex/program, when possible. Most of the time, there will be no discreprancy between programPath and readProgramFile. But, the programFile might have been written by an old version of git-annex that is still installed, while a newer one is currently running. In this case, we want to run the same one that's currently running. This is especially important for things like the GIT_SSH=git-annex used for ssh connection caching. The only code that still uses readProgramFile directly is the upgrade code, which needs to know where the standalone git-annex was installed, in order to upgrade it.

* Windows: Fix locking issue that prevented the webapp starting (since ↵Gravatar Joey Hess2014-07-14
| | | | | | | | 5.20140707). Reversion introduced in 89c188fac37c20c40b0a9dabeb35403cfa4e4f52. The locking code was wrong; the webapp re-ran itself, saw pid was locked, and so didn't start!
* Windows: Assistant now logs to daemon.log.Gravatar Joey Hess2014-06-17
| | | | | | | Yes, this means that git annex webapp on windows execs git-annex, which execs itself to set env, and the execs itself again to redirect logs. This is disgusting. This is Windows(TM).
* setsid when running webapp in foreground tooGravatar Joey Hess2014-05-14
| | | | | | | | This avoids ssh prompting for passwords on stdin, ever. It may also change other behavior of other programs, as there is no controlling terminal now. However, setsid was already done when running the assistant in daemon mode, so any behavior changes should not be really new.

* windows: Fix process termination code.Gravatar Joey Hess2014-02-13
| | | | | | | | | | | The ctrl-c hack used before didn't actually seem to work. No haskell libraries expose TerminateProcess. I tried just calling it via FFI, but got segfaults, probably to do with the wacky process handle not being managed correctly. Moving it all into one C function worked. This was hell. The EvilLinker hack was just final icing on the cake. We all know what the cake was made of.
* assistant unused file handlingGravatar Joey Hess2014-01-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make sanity checker run git annex unused daily, and queue up transfers of unused files to any remotes that will have them. The transfer retrying code works for us here, so eg when a backup disk remote is plugged in, any transfers to it are done. Once the unused files reach a remote, they'll be removed locally as unwanted. If the setup does not cause unused files to go to a remote, they'll pile up, and the sanity checker detects this using some heuristics that are pretty good -- 1000 unused files, or 10% of disk used by unused files, or more disk wasted by unused files than is left free. Once it detects this, it pops up an alert in the webapp, with a button to take action. TODO: Webapp UI to configure this, and also the ability to launch an immediate cleanup of all unused files.

* add support for fully automatic upgradesGravatar Joey Hess2013-11-24
| | | | | | | | | The Upgrader avoids checking for upgrades on startup when it was just upgraded. This avoids an upgrade loop if something goes wrong. One example of something going wrong would be if the upgrade info file and the distribution file get out of sync (or the distribution file is cached in a proxy), so it thinks it has upgraded to a new version, but has really not.

* watch git-annex program file to detect upgradesGravatar Joey Hess2013-11-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Not yet wired up to restart the assistant on upgrade; that needs careful sanity checking to wait until the upgrade is done before restarting. Used the DirWatcher here, so it gets events for any changes to the directory containing the program file. (But not subdirs.) This is necessary in order to detect when the file is renamed as part of the upgrade, which an inotify on a single file would not detect. (Also, I have DirWatcher code, but not FileWatcher code.) Note that upgrades that remove or rename a whole directory tree containing the executable will *not* trigger this code. So eg, deleting and replacing the whole standalone tarball dir tree won't work -- but untarring it over top will. So should dpkg package upgrades. Added programPath, using a new GHC feature to find the full path to the executable. The fallback code for old GHC or unsupported OS is less good; its worst failure mode would be either failing to find the program, and so not checking for upgrades, or finding a git-annex that's in PATH, but is not the one running.

* upgrade alertsGravatar Joey Hess2013-11-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The webapp will check twice a day, when the network is connected, to see if it can download a distributon upgrade file. If a newer version is found, display an upgrade alert. This will need the autobuilders to set UPGRADE_LOCATION to the url it can be downloaded from when building git-annex. Only builds with that set need automatic upgrade alerts. Currently, the upgrade page just requests the user manually download and upgrade it. But, all the info is provided to do automated upgrades in the future. Note that urls used will need to all be https. This commit was sponsored by Dirk Kraft.

* webapp: remind user when using repositories that lack consistency checksGravatar Joey Hess2013-10-29
| | | | | | | | | | When starting up the assistant, it'll remind about the current repository, if it doesn't have checks. And when a removable drive is plugged in, it will remind if a repository on it lacks checks. Since that might be annoying, the reminders can be turned off.

* automatically launch git repository repairGravatar Joey Hess2013-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added a RemoteChecker thread, that waits for problems to be reported with remotes, and checks if their git repository is in need of repair. Currently, only failures to sync with the remote cause a problem to be reported. This seems enough, but we'll see. Plugging in a removable drive with a repository on it that is corrupted does automatically repair the repository, as long as the corruption causes git push or git pull to fail. Some types of corruption do not, eg missing/corrupt objects for blobs that git push doesn't need to look at. So, this is not really a replacement for scheduled git repository fscking. But it does make the assistant more robust. This commit is sponsored by Fernando Jimenez.

* assistant: Detect stale git lock files at startup time, and remove them.Gravatar Joey Hess2013-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extends the index.lock handling to other git lock files. I surveyed all lock files used by git, and found more than I expected. All are handled the same in git; it leaves them open while doing the operation, possibly writing the new file content to the lock file, and then closes them when done. The gc.pid file is excluded because it won't affect the normal operation of the assistant, and waiting for a gc to finish on startup wouldn't be good. All threads except the webapp thread wait on the new startup sanity checker thread to complete, so they won't try to do things with git that fail due to stale lock files. The webapp thread mostly avoids doing that kind of thing itself. A few configurators might fail on lock files, but only if the user is explicitly trying to run them. The webapp needs to start immediately when the user has opened it, even if there are stale lock files. Arranging for the threads to wait on the startup sanity checker was a bit of a bear. Have to get all the NotificationHandles set up before the startup sanity checker runs, or they won't see its signal. Perhaps the NotificationBroadcaster is not the best interface to have used for this. Oh well, it works. This commit was sponsored by Michael Jakl

* add two long-running XMPP push threads, no more inversion of controlGravatar Joey Hess2013-05-22
| | | | | | | | | I hope this will be easier to reason about, and less buggy. It was certianly easier to write! An immediate benefit is that with a traversable queue of push requests to select from, the threads can be a lot fairer about choosing which client to service next.
