Add B248 to B252 to the bug ledger, the shared-device feature and schema 44
to the 3.5.0 changelog, and describe the join flow, per-machine profiles,
conflict copy names and the mirror's multi-writer rules in the user guide,
recovery guide, CLI and configuration references and the architecture notes.
An unreadable subfolder, such as a container's root-owned cache, failed
every pass of its synced folder, so nothing else in the tree reached
Drive (#33, B196). The scan now leaves such a path out, together with an
entry that vanished mid-scan and a name that is not UTF-8, and the pass
drops everything under it from classification, the wipe guard and the
push pass's deletions. It is never read as deleted and never downloaded
into. An unreadable or absent root still fails the pass. The activity
feed names unreadable paths once each time the set changes.
Two related bugs on the way to online-only:
- The push pass read deletions from the raw baseline, so a synced path
that later became ignored was trashed on Drive (B197).
- The switch evicted everything once the folder was idle, including
ignored paths such as .git/, symlinks, unreadable folders and files
changed after the pass, none of which are on Drive (B198). It now
refuses and names the path.
Closes#33
The verification window now runs in its own process, so the app survives
when WebKit cannot start its sandbox on secureblue, but the CAPTCHA still
could not be solved there (#29). WebKit binds the journal socket with
`--ro-bind-try`, bubblewrap only skips a missing path, not an unreadable
one, and WebKit has no switch to leave the socket out.
Proton Mail Bridge never uses a web view: it opens verify.proton.me in the
system browser and retries with the original challenge token, typed with
the offered methods. Do the same as a fallback.
- core: `browser_verification_url` and `browser_verified` build the page
URL and the retry credential from the challenge
- gui: when the verification window fails, a dialog opens the page in the
browser and continues the sign-in once the user is done
- cli: `pdfs login` handles a CAPTCHA the same way instead of failing
- i18n: translate the new dialog in every catalog
- docs: B195, TROUBLESHOOTING.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, changelog
Fixes#29
A user switching from a Windows PC to Linux had two half answers:
adopting the old device makes this machine back up as it, and restoring
its folders keeps them in the old device's tree. Neither puts the data
under this machine's own device.
Device roots are separate shares on the main volume, so each top-level
folder of the other device can move under this device's root in one
server-side move. Nothing is uploaded again, and the other device stays
registered, without those folders.
- core: `Request::MigrateDevice { uid }` and
`Db::sync_folder_set_share`
- fuse: `Core::migrate_device` moves every folder, suffixes a name
already taken here with the other device's name, keeps going past a
failed folder, and re-points sync folders that already tracked a
moved folder at the new share
- cli: `pdfs devices migrate UID [--yes]` confirms, moves, then runs
the ordinary restore picker
- gui: "Move to This Computer…" on another computer's row, followed by
the restore picker
- i18n: translate the new strings in every catalog
- docs: CLI.md, USER_GUIDE.md, RECOVERY.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, changelog
On secureblue, WebKit cannot start the sandbox for the verification page:
bubblewrap is kept from the journal socket, xdg-dbus-proxy fails, and
WebKit ends its process with g_error. The webview lived in pdfs-app, so
the whole app crashed after the sign-in (#29).
- gui: `pdfs-app --human-verification` shows the page in its own window,
reads the URL on stdin and prints the token on stdout; its logs go to
stderr
- gui: a child that dies or fails without a token ends the sign-in with a
message that the page could not be opened, instead of "cancelled"
- i18n: translate the new message in every catalog
- docs: B195 in the bug ledger, the cause and a one-time workaround in
TROUBLESHOOTING.md, the child process in ARCHITECTURE.md, changelog
ARCHITECTURE.md described the 2.x write path, where namespace changes
waited for Drive and every mount had its own inode space. Rewrite it
around the local tree (lid, inode = lid + 1, local~<lid> stand-ins), the
queue and its 16 drain workers, sync issues, and the remaining split
between the mount and the mirror engine. Drop the pins.json claim; pins
moved into the database at schema v5.
TESTING.md gains the simulation runs and loses the per-case narrative
that --list and BUGS.md already carry. ROADMAP.md takes over the
post-3.0.0 items from the milestone status file.
Remove MILESTONE-3.0.0-STATUS.md (a working log) and UI_UX_PLAN.md (the
2.x design audit). Code comments and CI that cited the untracked
docs/MILESTONE-3.0.0.md now point at TESTING.md, ARCHITECTURE.md and
ROADMAP.md. Threat-model links follow the section to §10.
- A mirror download first copies the file out of the content cache when the
same revision is cached whole or block by block, so moving a file out of an
on-demand folder into a mirror costs no traffic for what was already read.
- `pdfs move a b c DEST` moves every source, reports each failure and exits
non-zero if any failed.
- Mirror-to-mirror moves rename with RENAME_NOREPLACE, so a name that
appeared at the destination after the check is never overwritten.
- The local copy a move out of a mirror drops is checked again just before
it is deleted; anything written into it meanwhile keeps the copy and is
uploaded as new by the next pass.
A move request with two absolute paths is resolved against every
location (My files, on-demand and mirror synced folders) and made as a
server-side move_node. The local side is levelled afterwards: mounts
forget and re-list, a mirror folder renames its copy and baseline along
or drops the copy once Drive holds it.
Anything only this disk holds is refused up front: queued ops, open
writes, unsynced or ignored mirror files and symlinks. The GUI Move
dialog gains a top-level list of locations.
Split the README into a short front page and task-oriented pages under
docs/: installation, user guide, CLI reference, configuration and
troubleshooting, with an index in docs/README.md. Rewrite RECOVERY.md
around Continue This Backup Here and Restore Folders, and DEVELOPMENT.md
around running, debugging and releasing from source.
Bring ARCHITECTURE.md up to date with the read path, push events, the
thread map, conflict copies and the machine profile, and move the feature
design notes there. Collect planned work in ROADMAP.md. Link the threat
model from SECURITY.md and the translation rules from CONTRIBUTING.md.
Add scripts/publish-wiki.sh, which mirrors the user pages to the GitHub
wiki with rewritten links and only pushes with --push.
