* Try to use constants instead of strings
* Move crypto seed override out of radicle-crypto
* Use GIT_COMMITTER_DATE for commit overrides
* Use RAD_LOCAL_TIME as general time override
* Allow variables to be used in release mode
There are rare cases where ref announcements may be sent in close
succession, and the current clock time is re-used. This will cause the
second (newer) announcement to be ignored by peers.
We add a `timestamp` method that checks if the timestamp is re-used, and
increments it if so, ensuring that we always use a fresh one.
Implement a new build pipeline using `podman` and `zig` that is
reproducible and can be run entirely on linux.
We also simplify the versioning system, defaulting to the output of `git
describe` when there are no exact tag matches.
Since a user can force a fetch of a private repository without any
announcement being involved, we update the routing table if the fetch
completes successfully, with the remote node.
* Add `--force` flag to force a fetch even if the node is not a seed.
* Don't fail if we can't connect to a node during a fetch.
* More accurately exit when we hit our replica count.
When `--private` is passed to `clone`, we force a fetch from nodes that
aren't known seeds.
When it isn't specified, we skip nodes that aren't known seeds, even if
they are in the preferred seeds list. Previously, we would still fetch
from them, which would cause errors.
Implement this function on `RemoteRepository`, and move `repositories`
to the trait level.
This function will be used to quickly get the `RefsAt` of all repository
remotes.
When deciding whether or not to fetch a repo based on a refs
announcement, we need to know whether our signed refs are stale or not,
compared to the ones in the announcement. This can be quite expensive as
it requires multiple reads from Git's ODB, which often results in
packfile loading.
To remedy this, we introduce a refs cache in our node database that is
consulted when an announcement is received.
We also remove the logic that generates `info` messages, since they are
rarely needed and introduced more complexity.
Additionally, we revert commit 3ad2b4431f,
which introduced logic to minimze wants and haves with additional logic,
since it potentially also increases the load on the ODB.
Instead of dropping the existing connection(s), we drop the same
connection on both sides, by using a simple rule that yields the same
result whether the node sees the connection as inbound or outbound.
The trick is to use something that both nodes agree on, for instance
whos public key is greater than the other, and use that information
to close the same connection on both sides.
Promote message logging to `debug` level, and change default level to
`info`.
This is because `trace` level often covers details at a different level
of detail than for eg. messages sent and received. This means we don't
have to use `trace` level just to see the gossip.
Previously, we only kept tracked of unsynced nodes we were connected to.
Now we track all unsynced nodes, since announcements are relayed.
We also cap the replicas to exit earlier in case of very low replica
count.
We distinguish between the cases:
a) There are no seeds at all.
b) There are no seeds to announce to despite the user wanting a higher
replication factor, for example.
Instead of waiting for *all* configured/preferred seeds to be synced,
we wait for at least one.
Note that the previous behavior can still be used by setting
`--replicas` appropriately.
Instead of re-loading the full inventory on `rad init`, we simply add
the new repository to the in-memory cache.
We also keep track of whether a fetch was a full clone, to know when
to update our routing table.
For large seeds with many repos, it's expensive to traverse the
inventory everytime the node connects to a new peer, for example.
To improve the situation, we cache the inventory per `Storage` instance,
and add a `refresh` method to refresh the inventory.
This method is called when the node is told to synchronize its
inventory.
To make things a little more consistent, move the `rad self --address`
command to `rad node config --addresses`, since it's more about
externally-facing configuration of the node, rather than your local user
or profile.
