- - Distinguish between errors(?)
- - Custom merge algo: absolute php.ini symlinks to relative symlinks (this
- does not seem to have been a problem in practice)
- - Custom merge algo: check if it's got extra \r's in the file,
- and dos2unix it if it does, before performing the merge
- - `vos exa` in order to check what a person's quota is. We can
- figure out roughly how big the upgrade is going to be by
- doing a size comparison of the tars: `git pull` MUST NOT
- fail, otherwise things are left conflicted, and not easy to fix.
- - Prune -7 call errors and automatically reprocess them (with a
- strike out counter of 3)
- - Snap-in conflict resolution teaching:
- 1. View the merge conflicts after doing a short run
- 2. Identify common merge conflicts
- 3. Copypaste the conflict markers to the application. Scrub
- user-specific data; this may mean removing the entire
- upper bit which is the user-version.
- 4. Specify which section to keep. /Usually/ this means
- punting the new change, but if the top was specified
- it means we get a little more flexibility. Try to
- minimize wildcarding: those things need to be put into
- subpatterns and then reconstituted into the output.
-
-- Distinguish from logging and reporting (so we can easily send mail
- to users)
- - Remove "already migrated" cruft that will accumulate if we do small
- --limit and then increase.
- - Logs aren't actually useful, /because/ most operations are idempotent.
- Thus, scratch logfile and make our report files more useful: error.log
- needs error information; we don't care too much about machinability.
- All report files should be overwritten on the next run, since we like
- using --limit to incrementally increase the number of things we run. Note
- that if we add soft ignores, you /do/ lose information, so there needs
- to be some way to also have the soft ignore report a "cached error"
- - Report the identifier number at the beginning of all of the stdout logs
- - Log files that already exist should be initialized with some sort
- of separator THAT CONTAINS THE LOCATION OF THE INSTALL
- - Don't really care about having the name in the logfile name, but
- have a lookup txt file
- - Figure out a way of collecting blacklist data from .scripts/blacklisted
- and aggregate it together
- - Failed migrations should be wired to have wizard commands in them
- automatically log to the relevant file. In addition, the seen file
- should get updated when one of them gets fixed.
- - Log files need to have dates, since it looks like upgrades will be
- multi-day affairs
- - Failed migration should report how many unmerged files there are
- (so we can auto-punt if it's over a threshold)
- - Verification failures should be written to a report file, possibly
- with short HTML fingerprints so we can inspect them easily and
- numbers to look at the log files
-
-- Let users use Wizard when ssh'ed into Scripts
- - Make single user mass-migrate work when not logged in as root
