bisync: add --resync-mode for customizing --resync - fixes #5681 Before this change, the path1 version of a file always prevailed during --resync, and many users requested options to automatically select the winner based on characteristics such as newer, older, larger, and smaller. This change adds support for such options. Note that ideally this feature would have been implemented by allowing the existing `--resync` flag to optionally accept string values such as `--resync newer`. However, this would have been a breaking change, as the existing flag is a `bool` and it does not seem to be possible to have a `string` flag that accepts both `--resync newer` and `--resync` (with no argument.) (`NoOptDefVal` does not work for this, as it would force an `=` like `--resync=newer`.) So instead, the best compromise to avoid a breaking change was to add a new `--resync-mode CHOICE` flag that implies `--resync`, while maintaining the existing behavior of `--resync` (which implies `--resync-mode path1`. i.e. both flags are now valid, and either can be used without the other. --resync-mode CHOICE In the event that a file differs on both sides during a `--resync`, `--resync-mode` controls which version will overwrite the other. The supported options are similar to `--conflict-resolve`. For all of the following options, the version that is kept is referred to as the "winner", and the version that is overwritten (deleted) is referred to as the "loser". The options are named after the "winner": - `path1` - (the default) - the version from Path1 is unconditionally considered the winner (regardless of `modtime` and `size`, if any). This can be useful if one side is more trusted or up-to-date than the other, at the time of the `--resync`. - `path2` - same as `path1`, except the path2 version is considered the winner. - `newer` - the newer file (by `modtime`) is considered the winner, regardless of which side it came from. This may result in having a mix of some winners from Path1, and some winners from Path2. (The implementation is analagous to running `rclone copy --update` in both directions.) - `older` - same as `newer`, except the older file is considered the winner, and the newer file is considered the loser. - `larger` - the larger file (by `size`) is considered the winner (regardless of `modtime`, if any). This can be a useful option for remotes without `modtime` support, or with the kinds of files (such as logs) that tend to grow but not shrink, over time. - `smaller` - the smaller file (by `size`) is considered the winner (regardless of `modtime`, if any). For all of the above options, note the following: - If either of the underlying remotes lacks support for the chosen method, it will be ignored and will fall back to the default of `path1`. (For example, if `--resync-mode newer` is set, but one of the paths uses a remote that doesn't support `modtime`.) - If a winner can't be determined because the chosen method's attribute is missing or equal, it will be ignored, and bisync will instead try to determine whether the files differ by looking at the other `--compare` methods in effect. (For example, if `--resync-mode newer` is set, but the Path1 and Path2 modtimes are identical, bisync will compare the sizes.) If bisync concludes that they differ, preference is given to whichever is the "source" at that moment. (In practice, this gives a slight advantage to Path2, as the 2to1 copy comes before the 1to2 copy.) If the files _do not_ differ, nothing is copied (as both sides are already correct). - These options apply only to files that exist on both sides (with the same name and relative path). Files that exist *only* on one side and not the other are *always* copied to the other, during `--resync` (this is one of the main differences between resync and non-resync runs.). - `--conflict-resolve`, `--conflict-loser`, and `--conflict-suffix` do not apply during `--resync`, and unlike these flags, nothing is renamed during `--resync`. When a file differs on both sides during `--resync`, one version always overwrites the other (much like in `rclone copy`.) (Consider using `--backup-dir` to retain a backup of the losing version.) - Unlike for `--conflict-resolve`, `--resync-mode none` is not a valid option (or rather, it will be interpreted as "no resync", unless `--resync` has also been specified, in which case it will be ignored.) - Winners and losers are decided at the individual file-level only (there is not currently an option to pick an entire winning directory atomically, although the `path1` and `path2` options typically produce a similar result.) - To maintain backward-compatibility, the `--resync` flag implies `--resync-mode path1` unless a different `--resync-mode` is explicitly specified. Similarly, all `--resync-mode` options (except `none`) imply `--resync`, so it is not necessary to use both the `--resync` and `--resync-mode` flags simultaneously -- either one is sufficient without the other.

bisync: Graceful Shutdown, --recover from interruptions without --resync - fixes #7470 Before this change, bisync had no mechanism to gracefully cancel a sync early and exit in a clean state. Additionally, there was no way to recover on the next run -- any interruption at all would cause bisync to require a --resync, which made bisync more difficult to use as a scheduled background process. This change introduces a "Graceful Shutdown" mode and --recover flag to robustly recover from even un-graceful shutdowns. If --recover is set, in the event of a sudden interruption or other un-graceful shutdown, bisync will attempt to automatically recover on the next run, instead of requiring --resync. Bisync is able to recover robustly by keeping one "backup" listing at all times, representing the state of both paths after the last known successful sync. Bisync can then compare the current state with this snapshot to determine which changes it needs to retry. Changes that were synced after this snapshot (during the run that was later interrupted) will appear to bisync as if they are "new or changed on both sides", but in most cases this is not a problem, as bisync will simply do its usual "equality check" and learn that no action needs to be taken on these files, since they are already identical on both sides. In the rare event that a file is synced successfully during a run that later aborts, and then that same file changes AGAIN before the next run, bisync will think it is a sync conflict, and handle it accordingly. (From bisync's perspective, the file has changed on both sides since the last trusted sync, and the files on either side are not currently identical.) Therefore, --recover carries with it a slightly increased chance of having conflicts -- though in practice this is pretty rare, as the conditions required to cause it are quite specific. This risk can be reduced by using bisync's "Graceful Shutdown" mode (triggered by sending SIGINT or Ctrl+C), when you have the choice, instead of forcing a sudden termination. --recover and --resilient are similar, but distinct -- the main difference is that --resilient is about _retrying_, while --recover is about _recovering_. Most users will probably want both. --resilient allows retrying when bisync has chosen to abort itself due to safety features such as failing --check-access or detecting a filter change. --resilient does not cover external interruptions such as a user shutting down their computer in the middle of a sync -- that is what --recover is for. "Graceful Shutdown" mode is activated by sending SIGINT or pressing Ctrl+C during a run. Once triggered, bisync will use best efforts to exit cleanly before the timer runs out. If bisync is in the middle of transferring files, it will attempt to cleanly empty its queue by finishing what it has started but not taking more. If it cannot do so within 30 seconds, it will cancel the in-progress transfers at that point and then give itself a maximum of 60 seconds to wrap up, save its state for next time, and exit. With the -vP flags you will see constant status updates and a final confirmation of whether or not the graceful shutdown was successful. At any point during the "Graceful Shutdown" sequence, a second SIGINT or Ctrl+C will trigger an immediate, un-graceful exit, which will leave things in a messier state. Usually a robust recovery will still be possible if using --recover mode, otherwise you will need to do a --resync. If you plan to use Graceful Shutdown mode, it is recommended to use --resilient and --recover, and it is important to NOT use --inplace, otherwise you risk leaving partially-written files on one side, which may be confused for real files on the next run. Note also that in the event of an abrupt interruption, a lock file will be left behind to block concurrent runs. You will need to delete it before you can proceed with the next run (or wait for it to expire on its own, if using --max-lock.)

bisync: full support for comparing checksum, size, modtime - fixes #5679 fixes #5683 fixes #5684 fixes #5675 Before this change, bisync could only detect changes based on modtime, and would refuse to run if either path lacked modtime support. This made bisync unavailable for many of rclone's backends. Additionally, bisync did not account for the Fs's precision when comparing modtimes, meaning that they could only be reliably compared within the same side -- not against the opposite side. Size and checksum (even when available) were ignored completely for deltas. After this change, bisync now fully supports comparing based on any combination of size, modtime, and checksum, lifting the prior restriction on backends without modtime support. The comparison logic considers the backend's precision, hash types, and other features as appropriate. The comparison features optionally use a new --compare flag (which takes any combination of size,modtime,checksum) and even supports some combinations not otherwise supported in `sync` (like comparing all three at the same time.) By default (without the --compare flag), bisync inherits the same comparison options as `sync` (that is: size and modtime by default, unless modified with flags such as --checksum or --size-only.) If the --compare flag is set, it will override these defaults. If --compare includes checksum and both remotes support checksums but have no hash types in common with each other, checksums will be considered only for comparisons within the same side (to determine what has changed since the prior sync), but not for comparisons against the opposite side. If one side supports checksums and the other does not, checksums will only be considered on the side that supports them. When comparing with checksum and/or size without modtime, bisync cannot determine whether a file is newer or older -- only whether it is changed or unchanged. (If it is changed on both sides, bisync still does the standard equality-check to avoid declaring a sync conflict unless it absolutely has to.) Also included are some new flags to customize the checksum comparison behavior on backends where hashes are slow or unavailable. --no-slow-hash and --slow-hash-sync-only allow selectively ignoring checksums on backends such as local where they are slow. --download-hash allows computing them by downloading when (and only when) they're otherwise not available. Of course, this option probably won't be practical with large files, but may be a good option for syncing small-but-important files with maximum accuracy (for example, a source code repo on a crypt remote.) An additional advantage over methods like cryptcheck is that the original file is not required for comparison (for example, --download-hash can be used to bisync two different crypt remotes with different passwords.) Additionally, all of the above are now considered during the final --check-sync for much-improved accuracy (before this change, it only compared filenames!) Many other details are explained in the included docs.

bisync: allow lock file expiration/renewal with --max-lock - #7470 Background: Bisync uses lock files as a safety feature to prevent interference from other bisync runs while it is running. Bisync normally removes these lock files at the end of a run, but if bisync is abruptly interrupted, these files will be left behind. By default, they will lock out all future runs, until the user has a chance to manually check things out and remove the lock. Before this change, lock files blocked future runs indefinitely, so a single interrupted run would lock out all future runs forever (absent user intervention), and there was no way to change this behavior. After this change, a new --max-lock flag can be used to make lock files automatically expire after a certain period of time, so that future runs are not locked out forever, and auto-recovery is possible. --max-lock can be any duration 2m or greater (or 0 to disable). If set, lock files older than this will be considered "expired", and future runs will be allowed to disregard them and proceed. (Note that the --max-lock duration must be set by the process that left the lock file -- not the later one interpreting it.) If set, bisync will also "renew" these lock files every --max-lock_minus_one_minute throughout a run, for extra safety. (For example, with --max-lock 5m, bisync would renew the lock file (for another 5 minutes) every 4 minutes until the run has completed.) In other words, it should not be possible for a lock file to pass its expiration time while the process that created it is still running -- and you can therefore be reasonably sure that any _expired_ lock file you may find was left there by an interrupted run, not one that is still running and just taking awhile. If --max-lock is 0 or not set, the default is that lock files will never expire, and will block future runs (of these same two bisync paths) indefinitely. For maximum resilience from disruptions, consider setting a relatively short duration like --max-lock 2m along with --resilient and --recover, and a relatively frequent cron schedule. The result will be a very robust "set-it-and-forget-it" bisync run that can automatically bounce back from almost any interruption it might encounter, without requiring the user to get involved and run a --resync.

bisync: add options to auto-resolve conflicts - fixes #7471 Before this change, when a file was new/changed on both paths (relative to the prior sync), and the versions on each side were not identical, bisync would keep both versions, renaming them with ..path1 and ..path2 suffixes, respectively. Many users have requested more control over how bisync handles such conflicts -- including an option to automatically select one version as the "winner" and rename or delete the "loser". This change introduces support for such options. --conflict-resolve CHOICE In bisync, a "conflict" is a file that is *new* or *changed* on *both sides* (relative to the prior run) AND is *not currently identical* on both sides. `--conflict-resolve` controls how bisync handles such a scenario. The currently supported options are: - `none` - (the default) - do not attempt to pick a winner, keep and rename both files according to `--conflict-loser` and `--conflict-suffix` settings. For example, with the default settings, `file.txt` on Path1 is renamed `file.txt.conflict1` and `file.txt` on Path2 is renamed `file.txt.conflict2`. Both are copied to the opposite path during the run, so both sides end up with a copy of both files. (As `none` is the default, it is not necessary to specify `--conflict-resolve none` -- you can just omit the flag.) - `newer` - the newer file (by `modtime`) is considered the winner and is copied without renaming. The older file (the "loser") is handled according to `--conflict-loser` and `--conflict-suffix` settings (either renamed or deleted.) For example, if `file.txt` on Path1 is newer than `file.txt` on Path2, the result on both sides (with other default settings) will be `file.txt` (winner from Path1) and `file.txt.conflict1` (loser from Path2). - `older` - same as `newer`, except the older file is considered the winner, and the newer file is considered the loser. - `larger` - the larger file (by `size`) is considered the winner (regardless of `modtime`, if any). - `smaller` - the smaller file (by `size`) is considered the winner (regardless of `modtime`, if any). - `path1` - the version from Path1 is unconditionally considered the winner (regardless of `modtime` and `size`, if any). This can be useful if one side is usually more trusted or up-to-date than the other. - `path2` - same as `path1`, except the path2 version is considered the winner. For all of the above options, note the following: - If either of the underlying remotes lacks support for the chosen method, it will be ignored and fall back to `none`. (For example, if `--conflict-resolve newer` is set, but one of the paths uses a remote that doesn't support `modtime`.) - If a winner can't be determined because the chosen method's attribute is missing or equal, it will be ignored and fall back to `none`. (For example, if `--conflict-resolve newer` is set, but the Path1 and Path2 modtimes are identical, even if the sizes may differ.) - If the file's content is currently identical on both sides, it is not considered a "conflict", even if new or changed on both sides since the prior sync. (For example, if you made a change on one side and then synced it to the other side by other means.) Therefore, none of the conflict resolution flags apply in this scenario. - The conflict resolution flags do not apply during a `--resync`, as there is no "prior run" to speak of (but see `--resync-mode` for similar options.) --conflict-loser CHOICE `--conflict-loser` determines what happens to the "loser" of a sync conflict (when `--conflict-resolve` determines a winner) or to both files (when there is no winner.) The currently supported options are: - `num` - (the default) - auto-number the conflicts by automatically appending the next available number to the `--conflict-suffix`, in chronological order. For example, with the default settings, the first conflict for `file.txt` will be renamed `file.txt.conflict1`. If `file.txt.conflict1` already exists, `file.txt.conflict2` will be used instead (etc., up to a maximum of 9223372036854775807 conflicts.) - `pathname` - rename the conflicts according to which side they came from, which was the default behavior prior to `v1.66`. For example, with `--conflict-suffix path`, `file.txt` from Path1 will be renamed `file.txt.path1`, and `file.txt` from Path2 will be renamed `file.txt.path2`. If two non-identical suffixes are provided (ex. `--conflict-suffix cloud,local`), the trailing digit is omitted. Importantly, note that with `pathname`, there is no auto-numbering beyond `2`, so if `file.txt.path2` somehow already exists, it will be overwritten. Using a dynamic date variable in your `--conflict-suffix` (see below) is one possible way to avoid this. Note also that conflicts-of-conflicts are possible, if the original conflict is not manually resolved -- for example, if for some reason you edited `file.txt.path1` on both sides, and those edits were different, the result would be `file.txt.path1.path1` and `file.txt.path1.path2` (in addition to `file.txt.path2`.) - `delete` - keep the winner only and delete the loser, instead of renaming it. If a winner cannot be determined (see `--conflict-resolve` for details on how this could happen), `delete` is ignored and the default `num` is used instead (i.e. both versions are kept and renamed, and neither is deleted.) `delete` is inherently the most destructive option, so use it only with care. For all of the above options, note that if a winner cannot be determined (see `--conflict-resolve` for details on how this could happen), or if `--conflict-resolve` is not in use, *both* files will be renamed. --conflict-suffix STRING[,STRING] `--conflict-suffix` controls the suffix that is appended when bisync renames a `--conflict-loser` (default: `conflict`). `--conflict-suffix` will accept either one string or two comma-separated strings to assign different suffixes to Path1 vs. Path2. This may be helpful later in identifying the source of the conflict. (For example, `--conflict-suffix dropboxconflict,laptopconflict`) With `--conflict-loser num`, a number is always appended to the suffix. With `--conflict-loser pathname`, a number is appended only when one suffix is specified (or when two identical suffixes are specified.) i.e. with `--conflict-loser pathname`, all of the following would produce exactly the same result: ``` --conflict-suffix path --conflict-suffix path,path --conflict-suffix path1,path2 ``` Suffixes may be as short as 1 character. By default, the suffix is appended after any other extensions (ex. `file.jpg.conflict1`), however, this can be changed with the `--suffix-keep-extension` flag (i.e. to instead result in `file.conflict1.jpg`). `--conflict-suffix` supports several *dynamic date variables* when enclosed in curly braces as globs. This can be helpful to track the date and/or time that each conflict was handled by bisync. For example: ``` --conflict-suffix {DateOnly}-conflict // result: myfile.txt.2006-01-02-conflict1 ``` All of the formats described [here](https://pkg.go.dev/time#pkg-constants) and [here](https://pkg.go.dev/time#example-Time.Format) are supported, but take care to ensure that your chosen format does not use any characters that are illegal on your remotes (for example, macOS does not allow colons in filenames, and slashes are also best avoided as they are often interpreted as directory separators.) To address this particular issue, an additional `{MacFriendlyTime}` (or just `{mac}`) option is supported, which results in `2006-01-02 0304PM`. Note that `--conflict-suffix` is entirely separate from rclone's main `--sufix` flag. This is intentional, as users may wish to use both flags simultaneously, if also using `--backup-dir`. Finally, note that the default in bisync prior to `v1.66` was to rename conflicts with `..path1` and `..path2` (with two periods, and `path` instead of `conflict`.) Bisync now defaults to a single dot instead of a double dot, but additional dots can be added by including them in the specified suffix string. For example, for behavior equivalent to the previous default, use: ``` [--conflict-resolve none] --conflict-loser pathname --conflict-suffix .path ```

Note that ideally this feature would have been implemented by allowing the existing `--resync` flag to optionally accept string values such as `--resync newer`. However, this would have been a breaking change, as the existing flag is a `bool` and it does not seem to be possible to have a `string` flag that accepts both `--resync newer` and `--resync` (with no argument.) (`NoOptDefVal` does not work for this, as it would force an `=` like `--resync=newer`.) So instead, the best compromise to avoid a breaking change was to add a new `--resync-mode CHOICE` flag that implies `--resync`, while maintaining the existing behavior of `--resync` (which implies `--resync-mode path1`. i.e. both flags are now valid, and either can be used without the other. --resync-mode CHOICE In the event that a file differs on both sides during a `--resync`, `--resync-mode` controls which version will overwrite the other. The supported options are similar to `--conflict-resolve`. For all of the following options, the version that is kept is referred to as the "winner", and the version that is overwritten (deleted) is referred to as the "loser". The options are named after the "winner": - `path1` - (the default) - the version from Path1 is unconditionally considered the winner (regardless of `modtime` and `size`, if any). This can be useful if one side is more trusted or up-to-date than the other, at the time of the `--resync`. - `path2` - same as `path1`, except the path2 version is considered the winner. - `newer` - the newer file (by `modtime`) is considered the winner, regardless of which side it came from. This may result in having a mix of some winners from Path1, and some winners from Path2. (The implementation is analagous to running `rclone copy --update` in both directions.) - `older` - same as `newer`, except the older file is considered the winner, and the newer file is considered the loser. - `larger` - the larger file (by `size`) is considered the winner (regardless of `modtime`, if any). This can be a useful option for remotes without `modtime` support, or with the kinds of files (such as logs) that tend to grow but not shrink, over time. - `smaller` - the smaller file (by `size`) is considered the winner (regardless of `modtime`, if any). For all of the above options, note the following: - If either of the underlying remotes lacks support for the chosen method, it will be ignored and will fall back to the default of `path1`. (For example, if `--resync-mode newer` is set, but one of the paths uses a remote that doesn't support `modtime`.) - If a winner can't be determined because the chosen method's attribute is missing or equal, it will be ignored, and bisync will instead try to determine whether the files differ by looking at the other `--compare` methods in effect. (For example, if `--resync-mode newer` is set, but the Path1 and Path2 modtimes are identical, bisync will compare the sizes.) If bisync concludes that they differ, preference is given to whichever is the "source" at that moment. (In practice, this gives a slight advantage to Path2, as the 2to1 copy comes before the 1to2 copy.) If the files _do not_ differ, nothing is copied (as both sides are already correct). - These options apply only to files that exist on both sides (with the same name and relative path). Files that exist *only* on one side and not the other are *always* copied to the other, during `--resync` (this is one of the main differences between resync and non-resync runs.). - `--conflict-resolve`, `--conflict-loser`, and `--conflict-suffix` do not apply during `--resync`, and unlike these flags, nothing is renamed during `--resync`. When a file differs on both sides during `--resync`, one version always overwrites the other (much like in `rclone copy`.) (Consider using `--backup-dir` to retain a backup of the losing version.) - Unlike for `--conflict-resolve`, `--resync-mode none` is not a valid option (or rather, it will be interpreted as "no resync", unless `--resync` has also been specified, in which case it will be ignored.) - Winners and losers are decided at the individual file-level only (there is not currently an option to pick an entire winning directory atomically, although the `path1` and `path2` options typically produce a similar result.) - To maintain backward-compatibility, the `--resync` flag implies `--resync-mode path1` unless a different `--resync-mode` is explicitly specified. Similarly, all `--resync-mode` options (except `none`) imply `--resync`, so it is not necessary to use both the `--resync` and `--resync-mode` flags simultaneously -- either one is sufficient without the other.

bisync: Graceful Shutdown, --recover from interruptions without --resync - fixes #7470 Before this change, bisync had no mechanism to gracefully cancel a sync early and exit in a clean state. Additionally, there was no way to recover on the next run -- any interruption at all would cause bisync to require a --resync, which made bisync more difficult to use as a scheduled background process. This change introduces a "Graceful Shutdown" mode and --recover flag to robustly recover from even un-graceful shutdowns. If --recover is set, in the event of a sudden interruption or other un-graceful shutdown, bisync will attempt to automatically recover on the next run, instead of requiring --resync. Bisync is able to recover robustly by keeping one "backup" listing at all times, representing the state of both paths after the last known successful sync. Bisync can then compare the current state with this snapshot to determine which changes it needs to retry. Changes that were synced after this snapshot (during the run that was later interrupted) will appear to bisync as if they are "new or changed on both sides", but in most cases this is not a problem, as bisync will simply do its usual "equality check" and learn that no action needs to be taken on these files, since they are already identical on both sides. In the rare event that a file is synced successfully during a run that later aborts, and then that same file changes AGAIN before the next run, bisync will think it is a sync conflict, and handle it accordingly. (From bisync's perspective, the file has changed on both sides since the last trusted sync, and the files on either side are not currently identical.) Therefore, --recover carries with it a slightly increased chance of having conflicts -- though in practice this is pretty rare, as the conditions required to cause it are quite specific. This risk can be reduced by using bisync's "Graceful Shutdown" mode (triggered by sending SIGINT or Ctrl+C), when you have the choice, instead of forcing a sudden termination. --recover and --resilient are similar, but distinct -- the main difference is that --resilient is about _retrying_, while --recover is about _recovering_. Most users will probably want both. --resilient allows retrying when bisync has chosen to abort itself due to safety features such as failing --check-access or detecting a filter change. --resilient does not cover external interruptions such as a user shutting down their computer in the middle of a sync -- that is what --recover is for. "Graceful Shutdown" mode is activated by sending SIGINT or pressing Ctrl+C during a run. Once triggered, bisync will use best efforts to exit cleanly before the timer runs out. If bisync is in the middle of transferring files, it will attempt to cleanly empty its queue by finishing what it has started but not taking more. If it cannot do so within 30 seconds, it will cancel the in-progress transfers at that point and then give itself a maximum of 60 seconds to wrap up, save its state for next time, and exit. With the -vP flags you will see constant status updates and a final confirmation of whether or not the graceful shutdown was successful. At any point during the "Graceful Shutdown" sequence, a second SIGINT or Ctrl+C will trigger an immediate, un-graceful exit, which will leave things in a messier state. Usually a robust recovery will still be possible if using --recover mode, otherwise you will need to do a --resync. If you plan to use Graceful Shutdown mode, it is recommended to use --resilient and --recover, and it is important to NOT use --inplace, otherwise you risk leaving partially-written files on one side, which may be confused for real files on the next run. Note also that in the event of an abrupt interruption, a lock file will be left behind to block concurrent runs. You will need to delete it before you can proceed with the next run (or wait for it to expire on its own, if using --max-lock.)

bisync: full support for comparing checksum, size, modtime - fixes #5679 fixes #5683 fixes #5684 fixes #5675 Before this change, bisync could only detect changes based on modtime, and would refuse to run if either path lacked modtime support. This made bisync unavailable for many of rclone's backends. Additionally, bisync did not account for the Fs's precision when comparing modtimes, meaning that they could only be reliably compared within the same side -- not against the opposite side. Size and checksum (even when available) were ignored completely for deltas. After this change, bisync now fully supports comparing based on any combination of size, modtime, and checksum, lifting the prior restriction on backends without modtime support. The comparison logic considers the backend's precision, hash types, and other features as appropriate. The comparison features optionally use a new --compare flag (which takes any combination of size,modtime,checksum) and even supports some combinations not otherwise supported in `sync` (like comparing all three at the same time.) By default (without the --compare flag), bisync inherits the same comparison options as `sync` (that is: size and modtime by default, unless modified with flags such as --checksum or --size-only.) If the --compare flag is set, it will override these defaults. If --compare includes checksum and both remotes support checksums but have no hash types in common with each other, checksums will be considered only for comparisons within the same side (to determine what has changed since the prior sync), but not for comparisons against the opposite side. If one side supports checksums and the other does not, checksums will only be considered on the side that supports them. When comparing with checksum and/or size without modtime, bisync cannot determine whether a file is newer or older -- only whether it is changed or unchanged. (If it is changed on both sides, bisync still does the standard equality-check to avoid declaring a sync conflict unless it absolutely has to.) Also included are some new flags to customize the checksum comparison behavior on backends where hashes are slow or unavailable. --no-slow-hash and --slow-hash-sync-only allow selectively ignoring checksums on backends such as local where they are slow. --download-hash allows computing them by downloading when (and only when) they're otherwise not available. Of course, this option probably won't be practical with large files, but may be a good option for syncing small-but-important files with maximum accuracy (for example, a source code repo on a crypt remote.) An additional advantage over methods like cryptcheck is that the original file is not required for comparison (for example, --download-hash can be used to bisync two different crypt remotes with different passwords.) Additionally, all of the above are now considered during the final --check-sync for much-improved accuracy (before this change, it only compared filenames!) Many other details are explained in the included docs.

bisync: allow lock file expiration/renewal with --max-lock - #7470 Background: Bisync uses lock files as a safety feature to prevent interference from other bisync runs while it is running. Bisync normally removes these lock files at the end of a run, but if bisync is abruptly interrupted, these files will be left behind. By default, they will lock out all future runs, until the user has a chance to manually check things out and remove the lock. Before this change, lock files blocked future runs indefinitely, so a single interrupted run would lock out all future runs forever (absent user intervention), and there was no way to change this behavior. After this change, a new --max-lock flag can be used to make lock files automatically expire after a certain period of time, so that future runs are not locked out forever, and auto-recovery is possible. --max-lock can be any duration 2m or greater (or 0 to disable). If set, lock files older than this will be considered "expired", and future runs will be allowed to disregard them and proceed. (Note that the --max-lock duration must be set by the process that left the lock file -- not the later one interpreting it.) If set, bisync will also "renew" these lock files every --max-lock_minus_one_minute throughout a run, for extra safety. (For example, with --max-lock 5m, bisync would renew the lock file (for another 5 minutes) every 4 minutes until the run has completed.) In other words, it should not be possible for a lock file to pass its expiration time while the process that created it is still running -- and you can therefore be reasonably sure that any _expired_ lock file you may find was left there by an interrupted run, not one that is still running and just taking awhile. If --max-lock is 0 or not set, the default is that lock files will never expire, and will block future runs (of these same two bisync paths) indefinitely. For maximum resilience from disruptions, consider setting a relatively short duration like --max-lock 2m along with --resilient and --recover, and a relatively frequent cron schedule. The result will be a very robust "set-it-and-forget-it" bisync run that can automatically bounce back from almost any interruption it might encounter, without requiring the user to get involved and run a --resync.

bisync: add options to auto-resolve conflicts - fixes #7471 Before this change, when a file was new/changed on both paths (relative to the prior sync), and the versions on each side were not identical, bisync would keep both versions, renaming them with ..path1 and ..path2 suffixes, respectively. Many users have requested more control over how bisync handles such conflicts -- including an option to automatically select one version as the "winner" and rename or delete the "loser". This change introduces support for such options. --conflict-resolve CHOICE In bisync, a "conflict" is a file that is *new* or *changed* on *both sides* (relative to the prior run) AND is *not currently identical* on both sides. `--conflict-resolve` controls how bisync handles such a scenario. The currently supported options are: - `none` - (the default) - do not attempt to pick a winner, keep and rename both files according to `--conflict-loser` and `--conflict-suffix` settings. For example, with the default settings, `file.txt` on Path1 is renamed `file.txt.conflict1` and `file.txt` on Path2 is renamed `file.txt.conflict2`. Both are copied to the opposite path during the run, so both sides end up with a copy of both files. (As `none` is the default, it is not necessary to specify `--conflict-resolve none` -- you can just omit the flag.) - `newer` - the newer file (by `modtime`) is considered the winner and is copied without renaming. The older file (the "loser") is handled according to `--conflict-loser` and `--conflict-suffix` settings (either renamed or deleted.) For example, if `file.txt` on Path1 is newer than `file.txt` on Path2, the result on both sides (with other default settings) will be `file.txt` (winner from Path1) and `file.txt.conflict1` (loser from Path2). - `older` - same as `newer`, except the older file is considered the winner, and the newer file is considered the loser. - `larger` - the larger file (by `size`) is considered the winner (regardless of `modtime`, if any). - `smaller` - the smaller file (by `size`) is considered the winner (regardless of `modtime`, if any). - `path1` - the version from Path1 is unconditionally considered the winner (regardless of `modtime` and `size`, if any). This can be useful if one side is usually more trusted or up-to-date than the other. - `path2` - same as `path1`, except the path2 version is considered the winner. For all of the above options, note the following: - If either of the underlying remotes lacks support for the chosen method, it will be ignored and fall back to `none`. (For example, if `--conflict-resolve newer` is set, but one of the paths uses a remote that doesn't support `modtime`.) - If a winner can't be determined because the chosen method's attribute is missing or equal, it will be ignored and fall back to `none`. (For example, if `--conflict-resolve newer` is set, but the Path1 and Path2 modtimes are identical, even if the sizes may differ.) - If the file's content is currently identical on both sides, it is not considered a "conflict", even if new or changed on both sides since the prior sync. (For example, if you made a change on one side and then synced it to the other side by other means.) Therefore, none of the conflict resolution flags apply in this scenario. - The conflict resolution flags do not apply during a `--resync`, as there is no "prior run" to speak of (but see `--resync-mode` for similar options.) --conflict-loser CHOICE `--conflict-loser` determines what happens to the "loser" of a sync conflict (when `--conflict-resolve` determines a winner) or to both files (when there is no winner.) The currently supported options are: - `num` - (the default) - auto-number the conflicts by automatically appending the next available number to the `--conflict-suffix`, in chronological order. For example, with the default settings, the first conflict for `file.txt` will be renamed `file.txt.conflict1`. If `file.txt.conflict1` already exists, `file.txt.conflict2` will be used instead (etc., up to a maximum of 9223372036854775807 conflicts.) - `pathname` - rename the conflicts according to which side they came from, which was the default behavior prior to `v1.66`. For example, with `--conflict-suffix path`, `file.txt` from Path1 will be renamed `file.txt.path1`, and `file.txt` from Path2 will be renamed `file.txt.path2`. If two non-identical suffixes are provided (ex. `--conflict-suffix cloud,local`), the trailing digit is omitted. Importantly, note that with `pathname`, there is no auto-numbering beyond `2`, so if `file.txt.path2` somehow already exists, it will be overwritten. Using a dynamic date variable in your `--conflict-suffix` (see below) is one possible way to avoid this. Note also that conflicts-of-conflicts are possible, if the original conflict is not manually resolved -- for example, if for some reason you edited `file.txt.path1` on both sides, and those edits were different, the result would be `file.txt.path1.path1` and `file.txt.path1.path2` (in addition to `file.txt.path2`.) - `delete` - keep the winner only and delete the loser, instead of renaming it. If a winner cannot be determined (see `--conflict-resolve` for details on how this could happen), `delete` is ignored and the default `num` is used instead (i.e. both versions are kept and renamed, and neither is deleted.) `delete` is inherently the most destructive option, so use it only with care. For all of the above options, note that if a winner cannot be determined (see `--conflict-resolve` for details on how this could happen), or if `--conflict-resolve` is not in use, *both* files will be renamed. --conflict-suffix STRING[,STRING] `--conflict-suffix` controls the suffix that is appended when bisync renames a `--conflict-loser` (default: `conflict`). `--conflict-suffix` will accept either one string or two comma-separated strings to assign different suffixes to Path1 vs. Path2. This may be helpful later in identifying the source of the conflict. (For example, `--conflict-suffix dropboxconflict,laptopconflict`) With `--conflict-loser num`, a number is always appended to the suffix. With `--conflict-loser pathname`, a number is appended only when one suffix is specified (or when two identical suffixes are specified.) i.e. with `--conflict-loser pathname`, all of the following would produce exactly the same result: ``` --conflict-suffix path --conflict-suffix path,path --conflict-suffix path1,path2 ``` Suffixes may be as short as 1 character. By default, the suffix is appended after any other extensions (ex. `file.jpg.conflict1`), however, this can be changed with the `--suffix-keep-extension` flag (i.e. to instead result in `file.conflict1.jpg`). `--conflict-suffix` supports several *dynamic date variables* when enclosed in curly braces as globs. This can be helpful to track the date and/or time that each conflict was handled by bisync. For example: ``` --conflict-suffix {DateOnly}-conflict // result: myfile.txt.2006-01-02-conflict1 ``` All of the formats described [here](https://pkg.go.dev/time#pkg-constants) and [here](https://pkg.go.dev/time#example-Time.Format) are supported, but take care to ensure that your chosen format does not use any characters that are illegal on your remotes (for example, macOS does not allow colons in filenames, and slashes are also best avoided as they are often interpreted as directory separators.) To address this particular issue, an additional `{MacFriendlyTime}` (or just `{mac}`) option is supported, which results in `2006-01-02 0304PM`. Note that `--conflict-suffix` is entirely separate from rclone's main `--sufix` flag. This is intentional, as users may wish to use both flags simultaneously, if also using `--backup-dir`. Finally, note that the default in bisync prior to `v1.66` was to rename conflicts with `..path1` and `..path2` (with two periods, and `path` instead of `conflict`.) Bisync now defaults to a single dot instead of a double dot, but additional dots can be added by including them in the specified suffix string. For example, for behavior equivalent to the previous default, use: ``` [--conflict-resolve none] --conflict-loser pathname --conflict-suffix .path ```

bisync: add --resync-mode for customizing --resync - fixes #5681 Before this change, the path1 version of a file always prevailed during --resync, and many users requested options to automatically select the winner based on characteristics such as newer, older, larger, and smaller. This change adds support for such options. Note that ideally this feature would have been implemented by allowing the existing `--resync` flag to optionally accept string values such as `--resync newer`. However, this would have been a breaking change, as the existing flag is a `bool` and it does not seem to be possible to have a `string` flag that accepts both `--resync newer` and `--resync` (with no argument.) (`NoOptDefVal` does not work for this, as it would force an `=` like `--resync=newer`.) So instead, the best compromise to avoid a breaking change was to add a new `--resync-mode CHOICE` flag that implies `--resync`, while maintaining the existing behavior of `--resync` (which implies `--resync-mode path1`. i.e. both flags are now valid, and either can be used without the other. --resync-mode CHOICE In the event that a file differs on both sides during a `--resync`, `--resync-mode` controls which version will overwrite the other. The supported options are similar to `--conflict-resolve`. For all of the following options, the version that is kept is referred to as the "winner", and the version that is overwritten (deleted) is referred to as the "loser". The options are named after the "winner": - `path1` - (the default) - the version from Path1 is unconditionally considered the winner (regardless of `modtime` and `size`, if any). This can be useful if one side is more trusted or up-to-date than the other, at the time of the `--resync`. - `path2` - same as `path1`, except the path2 version is considered the winner. - `newer` - the newer file (by `modtime`) is considered the winner, regardless of which side it came from. This may result in having a mix of some winners from Path1, and some winners from Path2. (The implementation is analagous to running `rclone copy --update` in both directions.) - `older` - same as `newer`, except the older file is considered the winner, and the newer file is considered the loser. - `larger` - the larger file (by `size`) is considered the winner (regardless of `modtime`, if any). This can be a useful option for remotes without `modtime` support, or with the kinds of files (such as logs) that tend to grow but not shrink, over time. - `smaller` - the smaller file (by `size`) is considered the winner (regardless of `modtime`, if any). For all of the above options, note the following: - If either of the underlying remotes lacks support for the chosen method, it will be ignored and will fall back to the default of `path1`. (For example, if `--resync-mode newer` is set, but one of the paths uses a remote that doesn't support `modtime`.) - If a winner can't be determined because the chosen method's attribute is missing or equal, it will be ignored, and bisync will instead try to determine whether the files differ by looking at the other `--compare` methods in effect. (For example, if `--resync-mode newer` is set, but the Path1 and Path2 modtimes are identical, bisync will compare the sizes.) If bisync concludes that they differ, preference is given to whichever is the "source" at that moment. (In practice, this gives a slight advantage to Path2, as the 2to1 copy comes before the 1to2 copy.) If the files _do not_ differ, nothing is copied (as both sides are already correct). - These options apply only to files that exist on both sides (with the same name and relative path). Files that exist *only* on one side and not the other are *always* copied to the other, during `--resync` (this is one of the main differences between resync and non-resync runs.). - `--conflict-resolve`, `--conflict-loser`, and `--conflict-suffix` do not apply during `--resync`, and unlike these flags, nothing is renamed during `--resync`. When a file differs on both sides during `--resync`, one version always overwrites the other (much like in `rclone copy`.) (Consider using `--backup-dir` to retain a backup of the losing version.) - Unlike for `--conflict-resolve`, `--resync-mode none` is not a valid option (or rather, it will be interpreted as "no resync", unless `--resync` has also been specified, in which case it will be ignored.) - Winners and losers are decided at the individual file-level only (there is not currently an option to pick an entire winning directory atomically, although the `path1` and `path2` options typically produce a similar result.) - To maintain backward-compatibility, the `--resync` flag implies `--resync-mode path1` unless a different `--resync-mode` is explicitly specified. Similarly, all `--resync-mode` options (except `none`) imply `--resync`, so it is not necessary to use both the `--resync` and `--resync-mode` flags simultaneously -- either one is sufficient without the other.

bisync: add options to auto-resolve conflicts - fixes #7471 Before this change, when a file was new/changed on both paths (relative to the prior sync), and the versions on each side were not identical, bisync would keep both versions, renaming them with ..path1 and ..path2 suffixes, respectively. Many users have requested more control over how bisync handles such conflicts -- including an option to automatically select one version as the "winner" and rename or delete the "loser". This change introduces support for such options. --conflict-resolve CHOICE In bisync, a "conflict" is a file that is *new* or *changed* on *both sides* (relative to the prior run) AND is *not currently identical* on both sides. `--conflict-resolve` controls how bisync handles such a scenario. The currently supported options are: - `none` - (the default) - do not attempt to pick a winner, keep and rename both files according to `--conflict-loser` and `--conflict-suffix` settings. For example, with the default settings, `file.txt` on Path1 is renamed `file.txt.conflict1` and `file.txt` on Path2 is renamed `file.txt.conflict2`. Both are copied to the opposite path during the run, so both sides end up with a copy of both files. (As `none` is the default, it is not necessary to specify `--conflict-resolve none` -- you can just omit the flag.) - `newer` - the newer file (by `modtime`) is considered the winner and is copied without renaming. The older file (the "loser") is handled according to `--conflict-loser` and `--conflict-suffix` settings (either renamed or deleted.) For example, if `file.txt` on Path1 is newer than `file.txt` on Path2, the result on both sides (with other default settings) will be `file.txt` (winner from Path1) and `file.txt.conflict1` (loser from Path2). - `older` - same as `newer`, except the older file is considered the winner, and the newer file is considered the loser. - `larger` - the larger file (by `size`) is considered the winner (regardless of `modtime`, if any). - `smaller` - the smaller file (by `size`) is considered the winner (regardless of `modtime`, if any). - `path1` - the version from Path1 is unconditionally considered the winner (regardless of `modtime` and `size`, if any). This can be useful if one side is usually more trusted or up-to-date than the other. - `path2` - same as `path1`, except the path2 version is considered the winner. For all of the above options, note the following: - If either of the underlying remotes lacks support for the chosen method, it will be ignored and fall back to `none`. (For example, if `--conflict-resolve newer` is set, but one of the paths uses a remote that doesn't support `modtime`.) - If a winner can't be determined because the chosen method's attribute is missing or equal, it will be ignored and fall back to `none`. (For example, if `--conflict-resolve newer` is set, but the Path1 and Path2 modtimes are identical, even if the sizes may differ.) - If the file's content is currently identical on both sides, it is not considered a "conflict", even if new or changed on both sides since the prior sync. (For example, if you made a change on one side and then synced it to the other side by other means.) Therefore, none of the conflict resolution flags apply in this scenario. - The conflict resolution flags do not apply during a `--resync`, as there is no "prior run" to speak of (but see `--resync-mode` for similar options.) --conflict-loser CHOICE `--conflict-loser` determines what happens to the "loser" of a sync conflict (when `--conflict-resolve` determines a winner) or to both files (when there is no winner.) The currently supported options are: - `num` - (the default) - auto-number the conflicts by automatically appending the next available number to the `--conflict-suffix`, in chronological order. For example, with the default settings, the first conflict for `file.txt` will be renamed `file.txt.conflict1`. If `file.txt.conflict1` already exists, `file.txt.conflict2` will be used instead (etc., up to a maximum of 9223372036854775807 conflicts.) - `pathname` - rename the conflicts according to which side they came from, which was the default behavior prior to `v1.66`. For example, with `--conflict-suffix path`, `file.txt` from Path1 will be renamed `file.txt.path1`, and `file.txt` from Path2 will be renamed `file.txt.path2`. If two non-identical suffixes are provided (ex. `--conflict-suffix cloud,local`), the trailing digit is omitted. Importantly, note that with `pathname`, there is no auto-numbering beyond `2`, so if `file.txt.path2` somehow already exists, it will be overwritten. Using a dynamic date variable in your `--conflict-suffix` (see below) is one possible way to avoid this. Note also that conflicts-of-conflicts are possible, if the original conflict is not manually resolved -- for example, if for some reason you edited `file.txt.path1` on both sides, and those edits were different, the result would be `file.txt.path1.path1` and `file.txt.path1.path2` (in addition to `file.txt.path2`.) - `delete` - keep the winner only and delete the loser, instead of renaming it. If a winner cannot be determined (see `--conflict-resolve` for details on how this could happen), `delete` is ignored and the default `num` is used instead (i.e. both versions are kept and renamed, and neither is deleted.) `delete` is inherently the most destructive option, so use it only with care. For all of the above options, note that if a winner cannot be determined (see `--conflict-resolve` for details on how this could happen), or if `--conflict-resolve` is not in use, *both* files will be renamed. --conflict-suffix STRING[,STRING] `--conflict-suffix` controls the suffix that is appended when bisync renames a `--conflict-loser` (default: `conflict`). `--conflict-suffix` will accept either one string or two comma-separated strings to assign different suffixes to Path1 vs. Path2. This may be helpful later in identifying the source of the conflict. (For example, `--conflict-suffix dropboxconflict,laptopconflict`) With `--conflict-loser num`, a number is always appended to the suffix. With `--conflict-loser pathname`, a number is appended only when one suffix is specified (or when two identical suffixes are specified.) i.e. with `--conflict-loser pathname`, all of the following would produce exactly the same result: ``` --conflict-suffix path --conflict-suffix path,path --conflict-suffix path1,path2 ``` Suffixes may be as short as 1 character. By default, the suffix is appended after any other extensions (ex. `file.jpg.conflict1`), however, this can be changed with the `--suffix-keep-extension` flag (i.e. to instead result in `file.conflict1.jpg`). `--conflict-suffix` supports several *dynamic date variables* when enclosed in curly braces as globs. This can be helpful to track the date and/or time that each conflict was handled by bisync. For example: ``` --conflict-suffix {DateOnly}-conflict // result: myfile.txt.2006-01-02-conflict1 ``` All of the formats described [here](https://pkg.go.dev/time#pkg-constants) and [here](https://pkg.go.dev/time#example-Time.Format) are supported, but take care to ensure that your chosen format does not use any characters that are illegal on your remotes (for example, macOS does not allow colons in filenames, and slashes are also best avoided as they are often interpreted as directory separators.) To address this particular issue, an additional `{MacFriendlyTime}` (or just `{mac}`) option is supported, which results in `2006-01-02 0304PM`. Note that `--conflict-suffix` is entirely separate from rclone's main `--sufix` flag. This is intentional, as users may wish to use both flags simultaneously, if also using `--backup-dir`. Finally, note that the default in bisync prior to `v1.66` was to rename conflicts with `..path1` and `..path2` (with two periods, and `path` instead of `conflict`.) Bisync now defaults to a single dot instead of a double dot, but additional dots can be added by including them in the specified suffix string. For example, for behavior equivalent to the previous default, use: ``` [--conflict-resolve none] --conflict-loser pathname --conflict-suffix .path ```
