With the help of the excellent documentation on the Fossil Sync Protocol I have found a very simple solution to fix synchronization of unversioned files. Due to how work is distributed between the server and the client, it's correct that the server ignores "uvigot" cards, but the client should stop sending them.
http://www.fossil-scm.org/index.html/doc/trunk/www/sync.wiki I would like to suggest a solution in prosaic form, so you can add it to Fossil without any copyright concerns, if you think it's useful: In the client synchronization code, merge the test for the break condition whether the send limit has been reached with the entry test for the `while' loop, so that the loop is only entered if the size of the output blob is LESS THAN the send limit AND `db_step()' returns SQLITE_ROW. http://www.fossil-scm.org/index.html/artifact/0d5ab26abb?txt=1&ln=1934 Like this, send_unversioned_file() is only called by the client if there's room for one more file, and no "uvigot" cards will be generated. By not entering the loop, the skipped unversioned file remains in the `uv_tosend' table to be sent later, and `uvDoPush' remains 1 as `db_step()' is not called before assuring there's enough room. Testing if the output blob size is LESS THAN the send limit does not allow the output blob to grow as large as the send limit, whereas before it was allowed to grow up to the send limit. But `send_unversioned_file()' takes the "uvigot" path if the output blob is GREATER THAN OR EQUAL the send limit, so the changed `while' condition uses the same limits as `send_unversioned_file()'. I'm not sure however if "max-upload" can be assumed to always be greater than zero. Through the web interface, "max-upload" can be set to a negative number, so it may be safe to make sure "max-upload" is greater than zero when reading the value from the configuration. http://www.fossil-scm.org/index.html/artifact/0d5ab26abb?txt=1&ln=1745 --Florian _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
