Yesterday, debugged a reversion that +broke push/pull over tor, and made actual useful error messages be +displayed when there were problems. Also fixed a memory leak, although I +fixed it by reorganizing code and could not figure out quite why it happened, +other than that the ghc runtime was not managing to be as lazy as I would +expect. + +Today, added git ref change notification to the +P2P protocol, and made the remotedaemon automatically fetch changes from +tor remotes. So, it should work to use the assistant to keep +repositories in sync over tor. I have not tried it yet, and linking over tor +still needs to be done at the command line, so it's not really ready for +webapp users yet. + +Also fixed a denial of service attack in git-annex-shell and git-annex when +talking to a remote git-annex-shell. It was possible to feed either a large +amount of data when they tried to read a line of data, and summon the OOM +killer. Next release will be expedited some because of that. + +Today's work was sponsored by Thomas Hochstein on Patreon. -- cgit v1.2.3
