The scanner process has only cosmetic effect for the progress printer,
and can be disabled without impacting functionality when the user does
not need an estimate of completion.
In many cases the scanner process can provide beneficial priming of
the file system cache, so as general advice it should not be disabled.
However, tests have shown that backup of NFS and fuse based filesystems,
where stat(2) is relatively expensive, can be significantly faster
without the scanner.
TestRepository and its variants always returned no-op cleanup functions.
If they ever do need to do cleanup, using testing.T.Cleanup is easier
than passing these functions around.
The Original field is meant to remember the original snapshot id if e.g.
changing its tags. It was only set by the `rewrite` command if it was
not set previously. However, a rewritten snapshot is potentially rather
different from the original snapshot. Thus just always set the Original
field. This also makes it easier to later on detect and potentially
remove the original snapshots.
We now check for space that is not reserved for the root user on the
remote, and the check is no longer in a defer block because it wouldn't
fire. Some change in the surrounding code may have led the deferred
function to capture the wrong err variable.
Fixes #3336.
IDs.Less can be rewritten as
string(list[i][:]) < string(list[j][:])
Note that this does not copy the ID's.
The Uniq method was no longer used.
The String method has been reimplemented without first copying into a
separate slice of a custom type.
The Test method was only used in exactly one place, namely when trying
to create a new repository it was used to check whether a config file
already exists.
Use a combination of Stat() and IsNotExist() instead.
Since #3940 the rclone backend returns the commands exit code if it
fails to start. The list of expected errors was missing the "file
already closed"-error which can occur if the http test request first
learns about the closed pipe to rclone before noticing the canceled
context.
Go internally makes sure that a file descriptor is unusable once it was
closed, thus this cannot have unintended side effects (like accidentally
reading from the wrong file due to a reused file descriptor).
The ioutil functions are deprecated since Go 1.17 and only wrap another
library function. Thus directly call the underlying function.
This commit only mechanically replaces the function calls.
