On macOS, building the "openedx-dev" Docker image resulted in an image that required more than 600 GB of disk space. This was due to the `adduser` command which was called with a user ID of 2x10⁹ (on macOS only). This resulted in a very large /var/log/faillog file, hence the image size.

On Oct. 10, py2neo package was abruptly removed from pypi, GitHub, and
the py2neo website now displays just a super funny meme: https://py2neo.org/
Yes, we should get rid of that dependency, but we are still supposed to
support existing users. So we install py2neo from our fork.
The LMS was overriding CMS_BASE properly, but Studio (CMS) configuration
was not. That meant that Studio's CMS_BASE in dev mode was using the
devstack default of localhost:18010 (because this is what's defined in
edx-platform). This in turn broke parts of Studio that use this value,
such as the XBlock v2 API (/api/xblock/v2).
This commit derives the value of the CMS_BASE Django setting from
Tutor's CMS_HOST config value, in the same way that the LMS does it.
I added `rsync` to Transfer the configuration, environment, and platform data from server 1 to server 2 command so that we can we able to transfer data.
I found that `-avr` options fit well to it.
We upgrade nodeenv as an attempt to fix incomplete reads.
From time to time we face the following error:

This change was added to 1.8.0 as an attempt to resolve the issue: https://github.com/ekalinin/nodeenv/pull/329
We are not sure it will work every time, but it can't hurt.
Pound keys were interpreted as comments. This is annoying when we want
to parse html color codes, such as in:
$ tutor config save --set "INDIGO_PRIMARY_COLOR=#225522"
$ tutor config printvalue INDIGO_PRIMARY_COLOR
null
Close #866.
Now that sphinx_rtd support docutils>=0.19 we can drop that max version
requirement. But we need to limit sphinx max version because they
removed python 3.8 support before EOL.
This is a follow-up fix to #819, where the corresponding change was
added to the mysqld invocation in the "tutor local" (that is,
docker-compose) deployment method, but omitted from its "tutor k8s"
equivalent.
This fix is for a rather serious issue that affects users who upgrade
from Olive to Palm. The client mysql charset and collation was
incorrectly set to utf8mb4, while the server stil runs utf8mb3. Only
users who run the mysql container are affected.
To resolve this issue, we explicitely configure the client to use the
utf8mb3 charset/collation.
Important note: users who have somehow managed to upgrade from olive to
Palm before may find themselves in an undefined state. They might have
to fix their mysql data manually. Same thing for users who launched Palm
from scratch; although, according to my preliinary tests, they should be
able to downgrade their connection from utf8mb4 to utf8mb3 without
issue.
In addition, we upgrade to mysql 8.1.0. Among many other fixes, this
avoids a server restart after the upgrade:
> An in-place upgrade from MySQL 5.7 to MySQL 8.0, without a server
> restart, could result in unexpected errors when executing queries on
> tables. This fix eliminates the need to restart the server between the
> upgrade and queries. (Bug #35410528)

`tutor ... do settheme default` is meant to revert to the
default theme. However, in its current implementation, it
creates SiteTheme objects pointing to a theme named "default",
which doesn't exist, resulting in errors like:
Theme dirs:
[Path('/openedx/themes')]]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/openedx/edx-platform/openedx/core/djangoapps/theming/helpers.py", line 204, in get_current_theme
themes_base_dir=get_theme_base_dir(site_theme.theme_dir_name),
File "/openedx/edx-platform/openedx/core/djangoapps/theming/helpers.py", line 242, in get_theme_base_dir
raise ValueError(
ValueError: Theme 'default' not found in any of the following themes dirs,
This works from the perspective of the user, because a missing theme is
treated as the default theme. However, the errors are unneccesary &
confusing.
By simply deleting & not recreating SiteTheme objects instead,
we are able to revert to the default theme while keeping the
logs clear of theming errors.
