This change removes the hardcoded Google auth mechanism for the GCS
backend, instead using Google's provided client library to discover and
generate credential material.
Google recommend that client libraries use their common auth mechanism
in order to authorise requests against Google services. Doing so means
you automatically support various types of authentication, from the
standard GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable to making
use of Google's metadata API if running within Google Container Engine.
During the development of #1524 I discovered that the Google Cloud
Storage backend did not yet use the HTTP transport, so things such as
bandwidth limiting did not work. This commit does the necessary magic to
make the GS library use our HTTP transport.
This removes the conditions that checks if the password is supplied
through environment variable or file and outputs password is successful
on terminal and when --quiet is not supplied.
This adds some feedback when entering the password on the command line.
When the password is entered and supplied through stdin (and stdout is a
terminal) then the a message saying `password is correct` if correct is
printed.
This commits adds rudimentary support for a cache directory, enabled by
default. The cache directory is created if it does not exist. The cache
is used if there's anything in it, newly created snapshot and index
files are written to the cache automatically.
This was a bit tricky: We start the ssh binary, but we want it to ignore
SIGINT. In contrast, restic itself should process SIGINT and clean up
properly. Before, we used `setsid()` to give the ssh process its own
process group, but that means it cannot prompt the user for a password
because the tty is gone.
So, now we're passing in two functions that ignore SIGINT just before
the ssh process is started and re-install it after start.
Instead of determining the password lazily during ReadPassword(), do so now in
cobra.PersistentPreRunE() so we can store the result in the globalOptions and
reuse/override when applicable without having to worry about the environment
or flag options interfering.
The method of determining if a repository exists doesn't work on Windows, since
the "url.Scheme" will contain the drive letter - "c" in "c:\backup",
so as a first step we check if the URL can be opened as a file,
and if so, we assume it is a 'local' type repository.
