ListDeviceRestorableFolders and RestoreDeviceFolders read another
registered device's folders and attach them with that device's share,
without changing this machine's cached device. The Computers page moves
restore into each computer's menu, and pdfs sync restore takes --device.
StopSharing / StopSharingByUid remove the public link, external
invitations, invitations and members, trying every step and reporting
what is still shared. Shared by Me gets a Stop Sharing… item and
pdfs unshare <path> works without an id.
The Share dialog validates addresses inline, shows spinners on buttons
while requests run, offers a link expiry and shows an existing link's
expiry.
New requests CreateAlbum, RenameAlbum, DeleteAlbum, AddToAlbum and
RemoveFromAlbum, backed by proton-drive-rs 0.6.6. The Albums view gains a
New Album button and a card menu with Rename and Delete; photos gain Add
to Album (menu and selection bar) and Remove from Album inside an album.
CLI: pdfs new-album, rename-album, delete-album, add-to-album,
remove-from-album.
Also fixes the album view state: the timeline filters are hidden on the
album grid, the header counts albums, Back keeps the grid and its scroll
position, and the timeline is only reloaded when an album replaced it.
Request::Search takes an optional folder scope (serde default, so older
front-ends keep searching everywhere). The GUI offers a This folder toggle
beside the search box and shows a Location column for hits; the CLI gains
pdfs search --in. Pins report whether a pinned file is cached, so pin-derived
search hits badge correctly.
User-visible strings, doc comments and docs now say "Favorite" and
"color", matching the `pdfs favorite` command; UI_UX_PLAN.md §8 records
the choice. The changelog's 1.11.x and Unreleased entries said schema 30,
but V31 (`photos.resolved_at`) shipped in 1.11.0. Adds the missing
release links for 1.10.0 to 1.11.1.
Every transfer charges the bytes it moves to its direction's rate limit,
a virtual clock shared by all transfers with a one-second burst, and sleeps
off any overshoot. On runtime workers the sleep goes through block_in_place
so FUSE reads keep their threads.
The caps are set live with SetBandwidthLimits, persisted to config and
applied at mount start. Preferences gains a Network group with debounced
MiB/s editors, and the CLI gains `pdfs sync limit --up/--down`.
Conflict copies under My Files are paired with their original and listed
over the control socket. The Sync page shows them with a resolve dialog
(keep original, keep copy, keep both under a new name), and the CLI gains
`pdfs conflicts` and `pdfs conflicts resolve`. Every resolution goes
through the Proton trash, and files that are open, being written or still
owed an upload are refused.
Backend (docs/UI_UX_PLAN.md B-1, B-2):
- Request::SetSyncPaused { paused, until } pauses the drain worker and the
mirror reconcile. FUSE reads, write staging, the watcher and the poll keep
running. The pause is persisted in the `state` table (`sync_paused_until`),
so it survives a restart; a timed pause ends by itself through a timer
thread, re-armed on mount. Resuming wakes the drain and runs a full
reconcile. Response::Status gains `paused` and `paused_until`.
- Request::ListPendingOps lists the queue with paths, attempts, last error,
next attempt and parked/failing flags. Request::RetryPendingOp { id } makes
one backed-off op (or every failed one) due now. Parked ops are never
un-parked and nothing is dropped from the queue.
Front ends:
- Sync page: a status card with Pause/Resume (split button with 1 h, 8 h and
24 h pauses) and a "Waiting to Upload" list with Retry now and Retry All.
- The sidebar strip and the tray show the paused state; the tray gains Pause
Sync / Resume Sync and names failing changes.
- CLI: `pdfs sync pause [--for 30m|1h|2d]`, `pdfs sync resume`,
`pdfs sync queue`, `pdfs sync retry [id]`; `pdfs status` reports a pause.
Not in this phase: merging Activity into the Sync page, discarding a queued
op (needs a recovery copy first), and per-folder pause.
- Move Google Takeout import out of Settings; Photos owns it, and the
Takeout page's back button returns there.
- Trash from the file browser is Undo-only (no confirm); F2 on a
multi-selection explains why it does nothing.
- Ask before sign-out, rejecting an invitation, removing someone's access,
removing a public link, and switching a folder to on-demand.
- Clearer offline wording ("Make available offline" / "Make online only")
with dedicated offline, online-only and upload symbolic icons; the pin row
is hidden for folders.
- Search hits report whether a file is cached, so search results show the
offline badge.
- Activity log: readable Empty Trash / link entries, distinct icons, and
error/warning styling for failures and conflicts.
- Proper singular/plural counts instead of "item(s)" / "archive(s)".
- Name earlier versions by save time instead of revision id; capitalise
the public link role; stop-syncing uses a stop icon, not a trash can.
- Label the Photos Upload and "Show on map" buttons; toast when a
thumbnail build finishes; the versions button follows the mount state.
- Mode switches and device mutations reload both sync pages.
A timeline refresh resolved every photo's node to learn its name, media
type, favourite tag, content hash and photo relation — 63 round-trips for
a 12,445-photo library, minutes of work, repeated every time the timeline
went stale sixty seconds later. None of that metadata changes on its own,
and when it does change the event feed names the node it changed.
`photos.resolved_at` (schema v31) records that a photo's node was read.
The refresh resolves the photos without that mark: the ones it has never
read, and the ones a remote event marked stale. An existing timeline is
backfilled as resolved, so upgrading does not re-read the library once.
Remote changes now name what they changed instead of asking for
everything. `classify_photo_events` turns a `NodeUpdated` into
`photos_mark_unresolved(uid)`, so a favourite toggled on a phone costs one
node read rather than the whole library; a local toggle is claimed as our
own echo, because the feed replays it and a `NodeUpdated` carries nothing
that says what changed. A continuity loss and `refresh photos --full` drop
every mark, which is the way back to a whole-library read.
Along the way: `photos_replace` never kept a photo's name, so a photo the
SDK could not decrypt was renamed to nothing on every refresh — and the
tab split and the RAW+JPEG grouping are both derived from the name. It is
kept now, and a row that *was* resolved is authoritative instead, so a
photo unlinked from its main elsewhere finally loses its `main_uid`.
`TIMELINE_ENRICH_CHUNK` is 150, matching the SDK's own `MAX_BATCH_COUNT`:
a chunk of 200 was split there into a full request and a 50-uid tail.
Three things the 12,445-photo library showed that the tests did not.
A Pixel raw capture is two files named after the role each plays —
`PXL_….RAW-01.COVER.jpg` and `PXL_….RAW-02.ORIGINAL.dng` — so their stems differ
and the pairing rule never saw one shot. The marker is now cut off before names
are compared, narrowly: digits, then one role word, so an ordinary name that
happens to contain `.raw-` keeps its stem. Fed the real library's first 40 rows
through the grouping, they collapse to 21 tiles.
A raw that has a JPEG beside it is now painted with that JPEG's thumbnail, which
the server usually already holds. The Raw tab costs no raw download and no raw
decode for those tiles. Raws are found in one batched read, so an ordinary page
pays nothing for the lookup.
Photos could not be moved to Trash at all: they live on the photo volume, which
the mount never holds, so no `nodes` row exists, every authority answered
`Unknown`, and the write check refused the whole library with "trash access: not
allowed". Membership of our own timeline is the authority that does exist for a
photo, and it now answers. An album photo on someone else's volume still fails
closed.
Refreshing the gallery then reported `io: Resource temporarily unavailable (os
error 11)` (B92). The daemon held the control reply until the whole timeline had
been re-read — 63 batches of 200 nodes for this library, minutes of work against
a 120 s read bound. The daemon now answers as soon as the refresh is running,
`PhotosRefreshStatus` reports when it is done, and both front ends follow it: the
gallery reloads the page when it clears, and `pdfs refresh photos` blocks so the
command still means what it says. Each refresh logs its photo count, batch count
and duration.
Released as 1.11.0.
The grouping landed in the daemon; this is what it looks like. A tile whose shot
was stored as more than one file badges that in the corner — "RAW" when one of
the members is a raw file, since that is the word the person is looking for, and
a plain count otherwise (a live photo, a burst). The lightbox gains a control
that steps through the group's files, which is the only way to reach the RAW now
that the grid shows the shot once.
Deleting says what it will do: the daemon takes the whole group, so the
confirmation names the file count when a selection stands for more files than
tiles.
A camera that writes both puts two files on the volume, and the timeline showed
two tiles of the same photo. They are one shot to the person who took it.
Schema v30 records what ties them together: the server's own duplicate hash and
main-photo relation, plus a `group_key` every member of a shot carries. The key
is computed when the timeline is replaced, in three steps — the server relation
first, because it knows about live photos and bursts and we do not have to guess
at them; then same capture day, same file-name stem and one member raw while the
other is not, which is the pair a camera writes; otherwise the photo is its own
group. The member the grid shows is the non-raw one, since a JPEG decodes in
milliseconds and is what the person expects to see.
The gallery therefore pages by group and carries `group_size` and `has_raw` on
each entry, and the date scrubber counts what the page shows. The Raw tab is the
exception and still lists every raw file, because that tab exists to answer
"which raws do I have". Album pages are not grouped at all: an album is a list
someone made, and it shows exactly what they put in it.
`TimelineRow` is a struct now. It had grown to five positional fields and was
about to grow to seven, at which point nobody can read a call site.
The gallery could show photos and nothing else: a photo deleted on the phone
stayed on the page for minutes, and a photo you wanted gone had to be deleted
on another device. Both are now handled here.
Deleting needs a uid-addressed request, because `Request::Delete` takes a
mountpoint path and the photos volume is not in the FUSE mount. `TrashNodes`
trashes through the SDK and answers per-uid outcomes, so a partial failure is
reportable; the daemon then drops those rows with `Db::photos_delete`, album
membership included, rather than leaving the gallery to wait for the next
timeline refresh. The GUI removes the tiles immediately with an Undo toast and
puts back anything the server refused — the photos are in Proton's trash and
stay recoverable there either way. Selection is Ctrl/Shift+click, the Select
toggle or Delete in the lightbox.
Remote deletions arrive on their own now. The Drive volume and the photos
volume have separate event streams, so the photos volume gets its own poller
and its own cursor. Trash and delete events remove rows; anything else only
marks the timeline stale, because there is no inode space to converge on this
volume. With the timeline TTL down to 60 s and an explicit Refresh that waits
for the server instead of only clearing the freshness stamp, a photo deleted
elsewhere leaves the grid in about ten seconds.
On 2026-09-18 the daemon hung: 43 minutes of CPU over 20 hours, 5.2 GiB
resident, silent from 17:10 until a manual restart the next day, and no
panic. Nothing in the journal said what it had been waiting on, and
nothing in the daemon could be asked.
- The worker pool publishes per-thread state: whether the thread is busy,
how long it has been in that state, and the label of the job in hand.
Every FUSE handler that hands work to the pool now names its job
(`read`, `lookup`, `rename`), so a stuck worker is named rather than
merely counted. Queue depths and per-lane completion counts are
mirrored outside the queue lock.
- `Request::Diagnostics` / `pdfs diagnostics` reports those, plus
resident size, the control handler count against its limit, the
in-flight control requests with their ages, and the pending-op count.
- Built to answer while the daemon is wedged: atomics and `try_lock`
only, and the one field that needs the database reads it on a throwaway
thread with a 500 ms deadline.
- A queued rename that also changes folder now lands as one `move-multiple`
request carrying the target name instead of rename-then-move, so there is
no half-applied state and no second call for stale name requirements to
hit (B46 follow-up). A destination name collision moves under a conflict
name in one step; same-folder renames still use the rename endpoint.
- Shared with me shows the inviter and invite date (GUI subtitle, `pdfs
shared-with-me`), with a warning when the invitation signature does not
verify against the claimed inviter's keys. `DirEntry` gains `shared_by`,
`shared_at` and `shared_by_unverified`, all serde-defaulted.
- Bump `proton-sdk` / `proton-drive-rs` to 0.6.3 (anonymous-node moves,
`TrashTime` trashed detection).
B69 — spurious `(sync-conflict)` copies came from `(mtime, size)` being used as a
revision identity. The server re-stamps a sealed revision with its own commit
time, so the drain diverted a write into a conflict copy of its own base; and
`plan_file` classified a no-baseline (local, remote) pair as `Conflict`, forking
every pre-existing file on first reconcile.
- `Baseline` carries `revision_id` (from the SDK's new `active_revision_id`),
captured at write-open and preserved across supersede/rebaseline.
`revision_changed` trusts the id and only falls back to `(mtime, size)` for
old sidecars.
- Planner gains `FilePlan::AdoptBaseline`: equal-size no-baseline pairs are
recorded, not conflicted. Divergent sizes stay a real conflict.
- New `sweep.rs` (`pdfs-conflict-sweep`, 5-min cadence) removes conflict copies
proven identical by size + `content_sha1` and surfaces divergent ones once as
an `ActivityKind::Conflict` entry. Never removes what it cannot prove.
B70 — browsers downloading into an on-demand mount had their in-flight temps
sealed as canonical revisions, exiling the finished file to a conflict copy.
`syncignore::is_transient_name` now recognises download/scratch temps, and the
on-demand `release`/`rename` paths hold them (`set_create_hold`) instead of
sealing until the name is finalized.
Workspace deps bumped to proton-sdk/proton-drive-rs 0.2.2 (registry, no patch).
Live validation against a real account still pending for both.

A corrupt database or an oversized cache previously left the user with no
answer but "delete the state directory and re-sync", which for a large
account means re-downloading everything to fix a problem that may have been
a few stale rows.
pdfs diagnose reports on paths, keyring, daemon, and mountpoint, and exits
non-zero if any check fails so it works in a health check. Every check is
written to run with no daemon, because that is the situation it gets run in:
a stopped daemon is reported as a finding rather than aborting the report.
Writability is tested by writing, since permission bits say nothing about a
full disk or a read-only remount.
pdfs cache inspect reports database size, reclaimable space, per-table row
counts, and cache usage; --deep adds SQLite's integrity check, opt-in because
it reads every page. The report distinguishes "checked and clean" from "not
checked" rather than letting an empty problem list imply a clean bill of
health it never gave.
pdfs cache vacuum checkpoints the WAL and compacts the database.
Deliberately no orphaned-cache-row pruning: ContentCache::reconcile already
rebuilds the index from what is on disk at every open, so a second pass here
would duplicate it against a worse view of the truth. The WAL is likewise
left to journal_size_limit, which already caps it -- a periodic checkpoint
would paper over a problem that no longer exists.

relocate() called forget(), dropping the node's by_uid mapping, so
the re-enumeration assigned a fresh inode. The kernel had already
carried the renamed dentry onto the old one and holds it for the
entry TTL, so lookup/getattr/opendir resolved to an inode entries
no longer held and returned ENOENT — while readdir walked children
and reported the new inode. A renamed directory listed in its
parent but could not be entered until the TTL expired.
Rewrite the node in place and invalidate both parents' listings
instead. Also stops the moved node's DB row being deleted and
recreated on every move, which the B1 data-loss fix worked around
