An OSTree user noticed that `ostree fsck` would produce `missing
object` errors in the case of interrupted pulls.
It's possible to do e.g. `ostree pull --subpath=/usr/share/rpm ...`,
which gets you just that portion of the commit. The use case for this
was being able to see what changes would appear in an update before
actually downloading all of it.
(I think this would be better covered by static deltas, but those
aren't final yet, and `--subpath` predates it)
Further, `.commitpartial` is used as a successor to the `transaction`
symlink for more precise knowledge in the case where a pull was
interrupted that we needed to resume scanning.
So it makes sense for `ostree fsck` to be aware of it.
First, this is just a general continuation of the `GFile -> openat`
transition.
Second, it's preparatory work for fsck to gain awareness of partial
commits.
Always request detached metadata for commit objects, even if we already
have the commit object. This ensures we fetch any post facto detached
metadata updates such as new GPG signatures.

Emitted during a pull operation upon GPG verification (if enabled).
Applications can connect to this signal to output the verification
results if desired.
Similar to c2b01ad. For some reason I was thinking the commit data
still needed to be written to disk prior to verifying, but it's just
another artifact of spawning gpgv2 (predates using GPGME).
Makes for a nice cleanup in fetch_metadata_to_verify_delta_superblock()
as well.
In anticipation of API enhancements for GPG signature verification, which
would otherwise require a non-functional stub version were GPGME excluded.
GPGME is a pretty lightweight dependency, and the motivation to exclude
it is not clear.
This follows up from the previous commit; now that pull knows how to
do the efficient link() or copy for local files, we can just have
pull-local call into ostree_repo_pull().
As part of this:
- pull() can also accept a file:/// URI instead
of a remote name (since pull local supports anonymous pulls)
- pull() knows an "override-remote-name" option, since pull-local
supported writing a ref out even if there wasn't a remote with
that name
It's always been suboptimal to have both pull and pull-local; as we go
beyond the raw object data into things like deltas and summary files,
the logic to perform e.g. mirroring should only be in one place.
This will be used by Pulp's OSTree content plugin at least to perform
promotions.
When doing a pull --mirror from an archive-z2 repository into another
archive-z2 repository, currently we gunzip/checksum/gzip each content
object. The re-gzip process in particular is fairly expensive.
This does assume that the upstream content is trusted and correct.
It'd be nice in the future to do at least a CRC check, if not the full
checksum. (Could we append CRC data to the end of filez objects?)
We could also choose to only do this optimization if fetching over
TLS.
before: 1626 metadata, 20320 content objects fetched; 299634 KiB transferred in 62 seconds
after : 1626 metadata, 20320 content objects fetched; 299634 KiB transferred in 11 seconds
This is a noticeable cleanup, and fixes another big user of GFile* in
performance/security sensitive codepaths.
I'm specifically making this change because the static deltas code was
leaking temporary files, and cleaning that up nicely would be best if
we were fd relative.
You create these with something like:
ostree static-delta generate --empty --to=master
These will be automatically used during pull if no previous revision
exists in the target repo.
These work very much like the normal static deltas except they
are named just by the "to" revision. I.e:
deltas/94/f7d2dc23759dd21f9bd01e6705a8fdf98f90cad3e0109ba3f6c091c1a3774d
for a from-scratch to 94f7d2dc23759dd21f9bd01e6705a8fdf98f90cad3e0109ba3f6c091c1a3774d delta.

ostree_repo_pull_with_options() needs this, and I'd rather keep the
OstreeRemote struct definition tucked away in ostree-repo.c with its
own internal API.
Rename _ostree_fetcher_contents_membuf_sync to
ostree_fetcher_request_uri_to_membuf and drop unused argument
user_data.

We potentially need a lot of argument types for pull. Rather than
have a C function with tons of arguments, let's use a GVariant a{sv}
as a handy extensible (and immutable) bag of properties.
This is prepratory work for adding an option to pull to traverse
history.

Now that we have a summary file, we can use it to allow a simple:
ostree pull --mirror
To download the latest commit on every branch. Also, for a case I'm
dealing with there's only one branch, but I don't want mirror users to
have to hardcode it.

For Fedora and potentially other distributions which use globally
distributed mirrors, metalink is a popular solution to redirect
clients to a dynamic set of mirrors.
In order to make metalink work though, it needs *one* file which can
be checksummed. (Well, potentially we could explode all refs into the
metalink.xml, but that would be a lot more invasive, and a bit weird
as we'd end up checksumming the checksum file).
This commit adds a new command:
$ ostree summary -u
To regenerate the summary file. Can only be run by one process at a
time.
After that's done, the metalink can be generated based on it, and the
client fetch code will parse and load it.

Changes the pull API to allow pulling only a single directory instead
of the whole deployment. This option is utilized by the check-diff
option in rpm-ostree.
Add a new state directory to hold <checksum>.commitpartial files, so
we know that we've only downloaded partial state.
