I didn't wait until September to do it, this year!

We already load PublicInbox::Import via
PublicInbox::InboxWritable, so it's not an extra module
to load. This can give us a slight speedup in tests.
|
|
There's a bunch of leftover "require" and "use" statements we no
longer need and can get rid of, along with some excessive
imports via "use".
IO::Handle usage isn't always obvious, so add comments
describing why a package loads it. Along the same lines,
document the tmpdir support as the reason we depend on
File::Temp 0.19, even though every Perl 5.10.1+ user has it.
While we're at it, favor "use" over "require", since it it gives
us extra compile-time checking.

Avoid 'Variable "%s" will not stay shared' warnings
when the contents of this script eval'ed into a sub.
We also need to rely on ->DESTROY instead of END{}
to unlink the lock file on sub exit.

"mainrepo" ws a bad name and artifact from the early days when I
intended for there to be a "spamrepo" (now just the
ENV{PI_EMERGENCY} Maildir). With v2, "mainrepo" can be
especially confusing, since v2 needs at least two git
repositories (epoch + all.git) to function and we shouldn't
confuse users by having them point to a git repository for v2.
Much of our documentation already references "INBOX_DIR" for
command-line arguments, so use "inboxdir" as the
git-config(1)-friendly variant for that.
"mainrepo" remains supported indefinitely for compatibility.
Users may need to revert to old versions, or may be referring
to old documentation and must not be forced to change config
files to account for this change.
So if you're using "mainrepo" today, I do NOT recommend changing
it right away because other bugs can lurk.

First, we use flock(2) to wait on parallel public-inbox-init(1)
invocations while we make multiple changes using git-config(1).
This flock allows -init processes to wait on each other if using
reasonable POSIX filesystems.
Then, we also need a git-config(1)-compatible lock to prevent
user-invoked git-config(1) processes from clobbering our
changes while we're holding the flock.
|
|
Since I intend to add support for --skip-artnum, disambiguating
the long option name makes sense. We'll support --skip
indefinitely for compatibility.

-index documentation avoid redundant v1 information and refers
readers to apropriate v1/v2 manpages. Search::Xapian can also
be optional, now, as only the PSGI search interface uses it.
Favor "INBOX_DIR" where appropriate, since "REPO_DIR" can be
confused for code repos which we also support.
XAPIAN_FLUSH_THRESHOLD is documented for all relevant
bulk commands.
|
|
In retrospect, introducing V1Writable was unnecessary and
InboxWritable->importer is in a better position to abstract
away differences between v1 and v2 writers.
So teach InboxWritable to initialize inboxes and get rid
of V1Writable.
|
|
"git config" did not preserve permissions of the config file it
modifies prior to git 2.1.0, so workaround that.
|
|
Since we lazy-load Xapian now, some errors may become
more cryptic or buried. Try to improve that by making
Admin show better errors.
|
|
More tests work without Search::Xapian, now.
Usability issues still need to be fixed
|
|
Import initialization is a little strange from history, but we
also can't change it too much because it's technically a public
API which external code may rely on...
And we may need to support v1 repos indefinitely. This should
make it easier to write tests for both formats.
|
|
This allows archivists to publish incomplete archives with newer
mail while allowing "0.git" (or "1.git" and so on) epochs to be
added-after-the-fact (without affecting "git clone" followers).
A reindex will be necessary for Xapian and SQLite to catch up
once the old epochs are added; but the reindexing code is also
capable of tolerating missing epochs.
|
|
It is redundant to set default values in the public-inbox
config file. Lets not clutter up users' screens when they
view or edit the config file.
|
|
If indexlevel is specified on the command line prefer that.
If indexlevel is specified in the config file prefer that.
If indexlevel is not specified anywhere default to full.
This should make indexlevel somewhat approachable.

And we do not want to start making confused repos if somebody
leaves out "-V2" the second time around.
|
|
This will make it easier to as well as supporting future
Filter API users. It allows simplifying our ad-hoc
import_vger_from_mbox script.
|
|
While parallel processes improves import speed for initial
imports; they are probably not necessary for daily mail imports
via WatchMaildir and certainly not for public-inbox-init. Save
some memory for daily use and even helps improve readability of
some subroutines by showing which methods they call remotely.
|
|
A work-in-progress, but it appears the v2 UI pieces do
will not require a lot of work to do.
|
|
Using update-copyrights from gnulib
While we're at it, use the SPDX identifier for AGPL-3.0+ to
ease mechanical processing.
|
|
This matches git-config(1) behavior, and implied user
intent when it comes to programatically editing files.
|
|
We want to encourage users to serve repositories. So enable
bitmaps by default so performance suffers less with smart HTTP.
|
|
From the beginning, we've avoided objects here in favor
of faster startup time; but it may not be worth it
since a persistent httpd/nntpd is faster and -mda
isn't hit as often.

A public-inbox is NOT necessarily a mailing list, but it
could serve as an input point for zero, one, or infinite
mailing lists :D

This seems to match more closely with what is expected of Perl
packages based on how blib is used. Hopefully makes the top-level
source tree less cluttered and things easier-to-find.
