* 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.

Complicated by such repositories potentially being repos that should have an annex.uuid, but it failed to be gotten, perhaps due to the past ssh repo setup bugs. This is handled now by an Upgrade Repository button.
* Improve local pairing behavior when two computers both try to start the ↵Gravatar Joey Hess2013-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pairing process separately. I was able to reproduce something very like this bug by starting pairing separately on both computers under poor network conditions (ie, weak wifi on my front porch). Neither computer showed an alert for the PairReq messages it was seeing (intermittently) from the other. So, I've made a new PairReq message that has not been seen before always make the alert pop up, even if the assistant thinks it is in the middle of its own pairing process (or even another pairing process with a different box on the LAN). (This shouldn't cause a rogue PairAck to disrupt a pairing process part way through.)
* better control character sanity checkGravatar Joey Hess2013-11-02
| | | | | | | | | The msg contains a haskell-escaped string, so control characters in it can also be escaped. So this didn't work before, really. Got rid of the \n check, because current pairing messages actually do contain a \n, after the ssh public key. Don't want to break back-compatability.

* 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.

* add remote fsck interfaceGravatar Joey Hess2013-10-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently only implemented for local git remotes. May try to add support to git-annex-shell for ssh remotes later. Could concevably also be supported by some special remote, although that seems unlikely. Cronner user this when available, and when not falls back to fsck --fast --from remote git annex fsck --from does not itself use this interface. To do so, I would need to pass --fast and all other options that influence fsck on to the git annex fsck that it runs inside the remote. And that seems like a lot of work for a result that would be no better than cd remote; git annex fsck This may need to be revisited if git-annex-shell gets support, since it may be the case that the user cannot ssh to the server to run git-annex fsck there, but can run git-annex-shell there.

| | | | | | | I probably need to improve handling of the PleaseTerminate exception to kill the fsck process. Also, if fsck finds bad files, something needs to requeue downloads of them. Otherwise, this should work, but is probably quite buggy since I have only tested the pure code over the past 2 days.

* 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

* UI for making encrypted ssh remotes with gcryptGravatar Joey Hess2013-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | Improved probing the remote server, so it gathers a list of the capabilities it has. From that list, we can determine which types of remotes are supported, and display an appropriate UI. The new buttons for making gcrypt repos don't work yet, but the old buttons for unencrypted git repo and encrypted rsync repo have been adapted to the new data types and are working. This commit was sponsored by David Schmitt.

* assistant: Clear the list of failed transfers when doing a full transfer ↵Gravatar Joey Hess2013-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | scan. This prevents repeated retries to download files that are not available, or are not referenced by the current git tree. This is motivated by a user report that the assistant was repeatedly retrying transfers of files that had been deleted (in direct mode, so removing the only copy). Note that the glacier code retries failed transfers after a while to retry downloads that have aged long enough to be available. This is ok; if we're doing a full transfer scan we'll retry on every file that is still in the git tree. Also note that this makes the assistant less likely to get every file referenced by old revs of the git tree. Not something the assistant tries to ensure anyway, so I feel this is acceptable.
* webapp: support adding existing gcrypt special remotes from removable drivesGravatar Joey Hess2013-09-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When adding a removable drive, it's now detected if the drive contains a gcrypt special remote, and that's all handled nicely. This includes fetching the git-annex branch from the gcrypt repo in order to find out how to set up the special remote. Note that gcrypt repos that are not git-annex special remotes are not supported. It will attempt to detect such a gcrypt repo and refuse to use it. (But this is hard to do any may fail; see https://github.com/blake2-ppc/git-remote-gcrypt/issues/6) The problem with supporting regular gcrypt repos is that we don't know what the gcrypt.participants setting is intended to be for the repo. So even if we can decrypt it, if we push changes to it they might not be visible to other participants. Anyway, encrypted sneakernet (or mailnet) is now fully possible with the git-annex assistant! Assuming that the gpg key distribution is handled somehow, which the assistant doesn't yet help with. This commit was sponsored by Navishkar Rao.
* Support hot-swapping of removable drives containing gcrypt repositories.Gravatar Joey Hess2013-09-12
| | | | | | | | | | | To support this, a core.gcrypt-id is stored by git-annex inside the git config of a local gcrypt repository, when setting it up. That is compared with the remote's cached gcrypt-id. When different, a drive has been changed. git-annex then looks up the remote config for the uuid mapped from the core.gcrypt-id, and tweaks the configuration appropriately. When there is no known config for the uuid, it will refuse to use the remote.
