The webapp now fully handles repairing damage to the repository. Along with all the git repository repair stuff already built, I added additional repairs of the git-annex branch and git-annex's index file. That was pretty easy actually, since git-annex already handles merging git-annex branches that can sometimes be quite out of date. So when git repo repair has to throw away recent changes to the git-annex branch, it just effectively becomes out of date. Added a `git annex fsck --fast` run to ensure that the git-annex branch reflects the current state of the repository. When the webapp runs a repair, it first stops the assistant from committing new files. Once the repair is done, that's started back up, and it runs a startup scan, which is just what is needed in this sitation; it will add any new files, as well as any old files that the git repository damange caused to be removed from the index. Also made `git annex repair` run the git repository repair code, for those with a more command-line bent. It can be used in non-git-annex repos too! ---- So, I'm nearly ready to wrap up working on disaster recovery. Lots has been accomplished this month. And I have put off making a release for entirely too long! The big missing piece is repair of git remotes located on removable drive. I may make a release before adding that, but removable drives are probably where git repository corruption is most likely to occur, so I certainly need to add that. ---- Today's work was sponsored by Scott Robinson.
