Consistently use double dashes and fix typos -conf, -data-dir and
-verify.
Applies also to tests running the syncthing binary for consistency.
* Fix mismatched option name --conf in cli subcommand.
According to the source code comments, the cli option flags should
mirror those from the serve subcommand where applicable. That one is
actually called --config though.
* cli: Fix help text option placeholders.
The urfave/cli package uses the Value field of StringFlag to provide a
default value, not to name the placeholder. That is instead done with
backticks around some part of the Usage field.
* cli: Add missing --data flag in subcommand help text.
The urfave/cli based option parsing uses a fake flags collection to
generate help texts matching the used global options. But the --data
option was omitted from it, although it is definitely required when
using --config as well. Note that it cannot just be ignored, as some
debug stuff actually uses the DB:
syncthing cli --data=/bar --config=/foo debug index dump
* cmd/syncthing: Don't fail early on api setup error (fixes 7558)
* switch to factory pattern
* refactor config command to show help on nothing
* wip
* wip
* already abort in before
This matches the convention of the stdlib and avoids ambiguity: when
customErr{} and &customErr{} both implement error, client code needs to
check for both.
Memory use should remain the same, since storing a non-pointer type in
an interface value still copies the value to the heap.
We set the STRESTART environment when starting the inner process after
the first time, but this didn't persist when restarting the monitor
process. Now it does.
I was working on indirecting version vectors, and that resulted in some
refactoring and improving the existing block indirection stuff. We may
or may not end up doing the version vector indirection, but I think
these changes are reasonable anyhow and will simplify the diff
significantly if we do go there. The main points are:
- A bunch of renaming to make the indirection and GC not about "blocks"
but about "indirection".
- Adding a cutoff so that we don't actually indirect for small block
lists. This gets us better performance when handling small files as it
cuts out the indirection for quite small loss in space efficiency.
- Being paranoid and always recalculating the hash on put. This costs
some CPU, but the consequences if a buggy or malicious implementation
silently substituted the block list by lying about the hash would be bad.
Also retain the interval over restarts by storing last GC time in the
database. This to make sure that GC eventually happens even if the
interval is configured to a long time (say, a month).
Since we've taken upon ourselves to create a log file by default on
Windows, this adds proper management of that log file. There are two new
options:
-log-max-old-files="3" Number of old files to keep (zero to keep only current).
-log-max-size="10485760" Maximum size of any file (zero to disable log rotation).
The default values result in four files (syncthing.log, synchting.0.log,
..., syncthing.3.log) each up to 10 MiB in size. To not use log rotation
at all, the user can say --log-max-size=0.
