For each layout mode, these tests start with a git-annex-remote-rclone
remote, migrate it to a git-annex-remote-rclone-builtin remote. They
verify that a file copied pre-migration is still present and that `git
annex testremote` passes.
Issue #7625
Now that e2e tests are running in parallel, undoing the chdir to the
temp dir was causing flaky failures on cleanup. We don't need it anyway
because the worrisome subcommands have their working directory
controlled by `runInRepo()`.
Issue #7625
I'm hopeful that running these in parallel will not impact CI runtime
very much, but that likely depends on the number of CPU cores and
whether the tmp filesystem is backed by memory vs a physical disk.
Issue #7625
TestEndToEndRepoLayoutCompat exercises git-annex-remote-rclone-builtin
and git-annex-remote-rclone on the same rclone remote to ensure they are
compatible. It repeats the same test for all known layout modes.
Issue #7625
This commit implements milestone 2.1 for the gitannex subcommand:
https://github.com/rclone/rclone/issues/7625#issuecomment-1951403856
This rewrite makes a few improvements over the old shell script:
(1) It no longer uses the system's rclone.conf. Now, it writes the
rclone.conf file in an ephemeral directory.
(2) It no longer makes any assumptions about the contents of /tmp.
However, it now assumes that an rclone built from the HEAD commit is on
the PATH. It makes a best-effort attempt to verify this assumption, but
I'm not sure it's bulletproof.
I'm hoping that writing this in Go will enable more cross-platform
support in the future, but for now we're still restricted to Unixy
systems due to reliance on the HOME environment variable.
