Before this change, directory modtimes (and metadata) were always synced from
src to dst, even if already in sync (i.e. their modtimes already matched.) This
potentially required excessive API calls, made logs noisy, and was potentially
problematic for backends that create "versions" or otherwise log activity
updates when modtime/metadata is updated.
After this change, a new DirsEqual function is added to check whether dirs are
equal based on a number of factors such as ModifyWindow and sync flags in use.
If the dirs are equal, the modtime/metadata update is skipped.
For backends that require setDirModTimeAfter, the "after" sync is performed only
for dirs that could have been changed by the sync (i.e. dirs containing files
that were created/updated.)
Note that dir metadata (other than modtime) is not currently considered by
DirsEqual, consistent with how object metadata is synced (only when objects are
unequal for reasons other than metadata).
To sync dir modtimes and metadata unconditionally (the previous behavior), use
--ignore-times.
Directory mod times are synced by default if the backend is capable
and directory metadata is synced if the --metadata flag is provided
and the backend is capable.
This updates the bisync golden tests also which were affected by
--dry-run setting of directory modtimes.

Similar to
acf1e2df84,
go1.21.4 appears to have broken sync.MoveDir on Windows because
filepath.VolumeName() returns `\\?` instead of `\\?\C:` in cleanRootPath. It
looks like the Go team is aware of the issue and planning a fix, so this may
only be needed temporarily.
Before this change, a sync to a case insensitive dest (such as macOS / Windows)
would not result in a matching filename if the source and dest had casing
differences but were otherwise equal. For example, syncing `hello.txt` to
`HELLO.txt` would result in the dest filename remaining `HELLO.txt`.
Furthermore, `--local-case-sensitive` did not solve this, as it actually caused
`HELLO.txt` to get deleted!
After this change, `HELLO.txt` is renamed to `hello.txt` to match the source,
only if the `--fix-case` flag is specified. (The old behavior remains the
default.)
Allows rclone sync to accept the same output file flags as rclone check,
for the purpose of writing results to a file.
A new --dest-after option is also supported, which writes a list file using
the same ListFormat flags as lsf (including customizable options for hash,
modtime, etc.) Conceptually it is similar to rsync's --itemize-changes, but
not identical -- it should output an accurate list of what will be on the
destination after the sync.
Note that it has a few limitations, and certain scenarios
are not currently supported:
--max-duration / CutoffModeHard
--compare-dest / --copy-dest (because equal() is called multiple times for the
same file)
server-side moves of an entire dir at once (because we never get the individual
file objects in the dir)
High-level retries, because there would be dupes
Possibly some error scenarios that didn't come up on the tests
Note also that each file is logged during the sync, as opposed to after, so it
is most useful as a predictor of what SHOULD happen to each file
(which may or may not match what actually DID.)
Only rclone sync is currently supported -- support for copy and move may be
added in the future.
Logger instruments the Sync routine with a status report for each file pair,
making it possible to output a list of the synced files, along with their
attributes and sigil categorization (match/differ/missing/etc.)
It is very customizable by passing in a custom LoggerFn, options, and
io.Writers to be written to. Possible uses include:
- allow sync to write path lists to a file, in the same format as rclone check
- allow sync to output a --dest-after file using the same format flags as lsf
- receive results as JSON when calling sync from an internal function
- predict the post-sync state of the destination
For usage examples, see bisync.WriteResults() or sync.SyncLoggerFn()

432d5d1e20 operations: fix overlapping check on case insensitive file systems
We introduced a test that makes no sense. This happens to pass without --fast-list and fail with it.
This removes the test.
Before this change, the overlapping check could erroneously give this
error on case insensitive file systems:
Failed to sync: destination and parameter to --backup-dir mustn't overlap
The code was fixed and re-worked to be simpler and more reliable.
See: https://forum.rclone.org/t/backup-dir-cannot-be-in-root-even-when-excluded/39844/
Before this change using --max-duration and --cutoff-mode soft would
work like --cutoff-mode hard.
This bug was introduced in this commit which made transfers be
cancelable - before that transfers couldn't be canceled.
122a47fba6 accounting: Allow transfers to be canceled with context #3257
This change adds the timeout to the input context for reading files
rather than the transfer context so the files transfers themselves
aren't canceled if --cutoff-mode soft is in action.
This also adds a test for cutoff mode soft and max duration which was
missing.

3ccf222acb sync: overlap check is now filter-sensitive
The tests were attempting to write invalid objects on some backends
due to a leading / on the object name.
This fix also adds a few more test cases and makes sure the tests can
be run individually.
Previously, the overlap check was based on simple prefix checks of the source and destination paths. Now it actually checks whether the destination is excluded via any filter rule or a "--exclude-if-present"-file.
Before this change, if the --max-duration limit was reached then
rclone would retry the sync as a fatal error wasn't raised.
This checks the deadline and raises a fatal error if necessary at the
end of the sync.
Fixes#6002
Previously only the fs being checked on gets passed to
GetModifyWindow(). However, in most tests, the test files are
generated in the local fs and transferred to the remote fs. So the
local fs time precision has to be taken into account.
This meant that on Windows the time tests failed because the
local fs has a time precision of 100ns. Checking remote items uploaded
from local fs on Windows also requires a modify window of 100ns.
This is possible now that we no longer support go1.12 and brings
rclone into line with standard practices in the Go world.
This also removes errors.New and errors.Errorf from lib/errors and
prefers the stdlib errors package over lib/errors.
The test is not applicable to uptobox which can't upload empty files.
The test was not skipped as intended because the direct error was compared.
This fix will compare error Cause because Sync wraps the error.
This change fixes the bug described below:
if a file is removed while the local backend List() runs,
the call will flag an accounting error.
The bug manifests itself if local backend is the Sync target
due to intrinsic concurrency.
The odds to hit this bug depend on --checkers and --transfers.
Chunker over local backend is affected even more because
updating a composite object with a smaller size content
translates into removing chunks on the underlying file system
and involves a number of List() calls.
This is done by making fs.Config private and attaching it to the
context instead.
The Config should be obtained with fs.GetConfig and fs.AddConfig
should be used to get a new mutable config that can be changed.
This adds a context.Context parameter to NewFs and related calls.
This is necessary as part of reading config from the context -
backends need to be able to read the global config.
Before ths fix --cutoff-mode soft and cautious would emit a Fatal
error which stopped the sync immediately.
This fix introduces a new error which is checked in the sync error
processing which stops the sync gracefully.
Fixes#4576
Before this change these tests attempted to measure transfers and
checks in lieu of having a rename statistic with a very complicated
heuristic.
The change switches over to using the rename statistic which should be
100% reliable.
This commit corrects the logic for --track-renames-strategy which
broke the integration tests.
It also improves the parsing of the argument and adds a test for that.
