this refactors umount code we already used for the testsuite into the platform module's namespace.
also, it exposes that functionality via the cli api, so users can use it via "borg umount <mountpoint>",
which is more consistent than using borg to mount and fusermount -u (or umount) to un-mount.
we use "debug xxx" subcommands now. docs updated.
also makes "borg help" shorter as not all debug-xxx commands
show up, but just 1 main "debug" command.
all archives, all items are read to build a unified view.
files are represented by a same-name directory with the versions of the file.
A filename suffix computed by adler32(chunkids) is used to disambiguate the versions.
also: refactor code a little, create methods for leaves, inner nodes.
There are persistent questions why output from options like --list
and --stats doesn't show up. Also, borg currently isn't able to
show *just* the output for a given option (--list, --stats,
--show-rc, --show-version, or --progress), without other INFO level
messages.
The solution is to use more granular loggers, so that messages
specific to a given option goes to a logger designated for that
option. That option-specific logger can then be configured
separately from the regular loggers.
Those option-specific loggers can also be used as a hook in a
BORG_LOGGING_CONF config file to log the --list output to a separate
file, or send --stats output to a network socket where some daemon
could analyze it.
Steps:
- create an option-specific logger for each of the implied output options
- modify the messages specific to each option to go to the correct logger
- if an implied output option is passed, change the option-specific
logger (only) to log at INFO level
- test that root logger messages don't come through option-specific loggers
They shouldn't, per https://docs.python.org/3/howto/logging.html#logging-flow
but test just the same. Particularly test a message that can come from
remote repositories.
Fixes#526, #573, #665, #824
- Instead of very small (5 MB-ish) segment files, use larger ones
- Request asynchronous write-out or write-through (TODO) where it is supported,
to achieve a continuously high throughput for writes
- Instead of depending on ordered writes (write data, commit tag, sync)
for consistency, do a double-sync commit as more serious RDBMS also do
i.e. write data, sync, write commit tag, sync
Since commits are very expensive in Borg at the moment this makes no
difference performance-wise.
