git-annex 10.20241031 released with these changes
- Sped up proxied downloads from special remotes, by streaming.
- Added GETORDERED request to external special remote protocol. When the external special remote responds with ORDERED, it can stream through a proxy.
- p2phttp: Support serving unauthenticated users while requesting authentication for operations that need it. Eg, --unauth-readonly can be combined with --authenv.
- p2phttp: Allow unauthenticated users to lock content by default.
- p2phttp: Added --unauth-nolocking option to prevent unauthenticated users from locking content.
- Allow enabling the servant build flag with older versions of stm, allowing building with ghc 9.0.2.
- git-remote-annex: Fix bug that prevented using it with external special remotes, leading to protocol error messages involving "GITMANIFEST".
- adjust: Allow any order of options when combining --hide-missing with options like --unlock.
- Support P2P protocol version 4. This allows DATA-PRESENT to be sent after PUT (and in the HTTP P2P protocol, v4/put has a data-present parameter). When used with a proxy to a special remote like a S3 bucket, this allows a custom client to upload content to S3 itself, and then use the P2P protocol to inform the proxy that the content has been stored there, which will result in the same git-annex branch state updates as sending DATA via the proxy.
- Fix hang when receiving a large file into a proxied special remote.
