Symirr TODO list ---------------- Add option to treat user-that-I-am as "me", to map back/forwards more easily. symirr: ABORT: unexpected condition at smmerge.c line 135 (version 2.0.7) ABORT: unexpected condition at smxcomp.c line 161 (version 2.0.8) Got into a mess with the BOOKMARKS directory, because it was deleting it and recreating it every time, maybe due to switching between a real directory and symlinks what happens when we symlink a file/dir, and a clash is detected; we have to rename WHAT exactly to the CLASH extension ... the original file? the symlink? both? bug in xtreediff syncing /cwrk; seems to get an 'X' and a 'END' at the same time in smxcomp.c:159; MAYBE FIXED NOW doing a lot of local commands, or sending/receiving a lot of small files, is slow because it requires a round-trip for each one. Send them in batches? Speed it up some other way? write jot2man, to create a man-page write jot2bstxt, maybe get jot/ directory updated in symirr archive with new versions when ready test the -x and -p exclude options in test-suite test pax-output TGZs fully, test breaking all available ustar limits test symlink-handling more fully when symlinks are followed, and the destination directories have different modes, the chmug fails because it is trying to change the symlink and not the destination probably in general, following symlinks is not being handled correctly; for example for files as well maybe force an error return instead of a warning when a symlink to be followed is broken, since symlinks-to-follow are usually at the top level and should all be correct, and if not is because something is broken make -b the default, and have -n "no backups" option? add option --all-files? make *~ *.NO_SYMIRR be included by default, and have -X "standard exclusions" option smmapch coverage smmerge coverage (some cases) smxcomp coverage build up coverage testing suite eliminate all memory leaks maybe check history locally for a valid session, rather than remotely as at present ... ? Makes fixing up easier ... maybe. Or check both ends? think about a better method than cached local-tree.gz and remote-tree.gz for accelerating transfer of remote tree (xtreediff), maybe doing something more symmetrical; xtree-rsync (see brain-dump) would do the job test-suite to show full profiling coverage, no memory leaks, and exercise of all rules when everything else is working very well, maybe add rsync-like syncing of large files and/or zlib compression maybe apply zlib compression to all large data transfers (files, trees), or for simplicity, maybe to the entire conversation; but then it is the same as using "ssh -C", except that we are more in control of sync-flush points -- so, maybe not so useful add machine name to CLASH names to make it easier to work out where a clash came from? .CLASH-sunrise.uazu.net-XXXXXXXX ------------------------------------------------------------------------
