Release 3.7.3 (2022-05-26)
--------------------------
* Minor bugfixes.
* This is the last release from the current maintainer. SSHFS is now no longer maintained
or developed. Github issue tracking and pull requests have therefore been disabled. The
mailing list (see below) is still available for use.
If you would like to take over this project, you are welcome to do so. Please fork it
and develop the fork for a while. Once there has been 6 months of reasonable activity,
please contact Nikolaus@rath.org and I'll be happy to give you ownership of this
repository or replace with a pointer to the fork.
From upstream 0.122/0.121-TRIAL:
- Adds `size` and `size_human` methods. The latter gives `ls -lh` style
output, with options to choose base2 or base10 forms.
From upstream 0.120/0.119-TRIAL:
- The `tempdir` and `tempfile` methods may be called on a Path::Tiny object
representing a directory, in which case the directory will be used as the
container for the temporary object (as if the `DIR` argument were used).
Upstream NEWS, omitting bugfixes and minor improvements:

Security-related Changes
------------------------
- The introducer server no longer writes the sensitive introducer fURL value to its log at startup time. Instead it writes the well-known path of the file from which this value can be read. (`#3819 <https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/3819>`_)
- The storage protocol operation ``readv`` now safely rejects attempts to read negative lengths.
Previously these read requests were satisfied with the complete contents of the share file (including trailing metadata) starting from the specified offset. (`#3822 <https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/3822>`_)
- The storage server implementation no longer records corruption advisories about storage indexes for which it holds no shares. (`#3824 <https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/3824>`_)
- The lease-checker now uses JSON instead of pickle to serialize its state.
tahoe will now refuse to run until you either delete all pickle files or
migrate them using the new command::
tahoe admin migrate-crawler
This will migrate all crawler-related pickle files. (`#3825 <https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/3825>`_)
- The SFTP server no longer accepts password-based credentials for authentication.
Public/private key-based credentials are now the only supported authentication type.
This removes plaintext password storage from the SFTP credentials file.
It also removes a possible timing side-channel vulnerability which might have allowed attackers to discover an account's plaintext password. (`#3827 <https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/3827>`_)
- The storage server now keeps hashes of lease renew and cancel secrets for immutable share files instead of keeping the original secrets. (`#3839 <https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/3839>`_)
- The storage server now keeps hashes of lease renew and cancel secrets for mutable share files instead of keeping the original secrets. (`#3841 <https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/3841>`_)
Features
--------
- Tahoe-LAFS releases now have just a .tar.gz source release and a (universal) wheel (`#3735 <https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/3735>`_)
- tahoe-lafs now provides its statistics also in OpenMetrics format (for Prometheus et. al.) at `/statistics?t=openmetrics`. (`#3786 <https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/3786>`_)
- If uploading an immutable hasn't had a write for 30 minutes, the storage server will abort the upload. (`#3807 <https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/3807>`_)
Removed Features
----------------
- The little-used "control port" has been removed from all node types. (`#3814 <https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/3814>`_)
2.4.16
Changed
- Make `fs.zipfs._ZipExtFile` use the seeking mechanism implemented
in the Python standard library in Python version 3.7 and later
- Mark `fs.zipfs.ReadZipFS` as a case-sensitive filesystem
- Optimized moving files between filesystems with syspaths.
- Fixed `fs.move.move_file` to clean up the copy on the destination in case of errors.
- `fs.opener.manage_fs` with `writeable=True` will now raise a `ResourceReadOnly`
exception if the managed filesystem is not writeable.
- Marked filesystems wrapped with `fs.wrap.WrapReadOnly` as read-only.
NetBSD has a base system fuse_opt.h with an error. see
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-userlevel/2022/03/23/msg013349.html
Pull pkgsrc's FUSE buildlink3.mk to make sure we link with the right header
cVS: ----------------------------------------------------------------------
2.4.15
Changed
- Support more lenient usernames and group names in FTP servers
Fixed
- Fixed `MemoryFS.move` and `MemoryFS.movedir` not updating the name of moved
resources, causing `MemoryFS.scandir` to use the old name.
- Make `WrapFS.move` and `WrapFS.movedir` use the delegate FS methods instead
of `fs.move` functions, which was causing optimized implementation of
`movedir` to be always skipped.
The restriction to python 2.7 was noted being current as of an ancient
version. Dropping that line and building (therefore with 3.9)
succeeded, and the upstream configure.ac searches for python3 and
accepts it. Thus, even without testing, this seems ok.
This flag should be set for packages that import pkg_resources
and thus need setuptools after the build step.
Set this flag for packages that need it and bump PKGREVISION.
I have added a lot of unpleasant hacks to the code in order to make it
work with NetBSD librefuse. We really should fix it. I will probably
do it later. Release notes from the upstream are as follows:
Release 3.7.2 (2021-06-08)
--------------------------
* Added a secondary check so if a mkdir request fails with EPERM an access request will be
tried - returning EEXIST if the access was successful.
Fixes: https://github.com/libfuse/sshfs/issues/243
Release 3.7.1 (2020-11-09)
--------------------------
* Minor bugfixes.
Release 3.7.0 (2020-01-03)
--------------------------
* New max_conns option enables the use of multiple connections to improve responsiveness
during large file transfers. Thanks to Timo Savola for doing most of the implementation
work, and thanks to CEA.fr for sponsoring remaining bugfixes and cleanups!
* The `buflimit` workaround is now disabled by default. The corresponding bug in OpenSSH
has been fixed in 2007
(cf. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=365541#37), so this shouldn't be
needed anymore. If you depend on this workaround, please let the SSHFS maintainers know,
otherwise support for the workaround will be removed completely in a future version.
Release 3.6.0 (2019-11-03)
--------------------------
* Added "-o direct_io" option.
This option disables the use of page cache in kernel.
This is useful for example if the file size is not known before reading it.
For example if you mount /proc dir from a remote host without the direct_io
option, the read always will return zero bytes instead of actual data.
* Added --verbose option.
* Fixed a number of compiler warnings.
* Improved performance under OS X.
Release 3.5.2 (2019-04-13)
--------------------------
* Fixed "-o idmap=user" to map both UID and GID on all OSs.
* Fixed improper handling of sequential spaces spaces in "ssh_command" option
Release 3.5.1 (2018-12-22)
--------------------------
* Documentation updates
* Build system updates
* Added "BindInterface" as valid "-o" option.
Release 3.5.0 (2018-08-28)
--------------------------
* Fixed error code returned by rename(), allowing proper fallback.
* Port to Cygwin.
Release 3.4.0 (2018-06-29)
--------------------------
* Make utimens(NULL) result in timestamp "now" -- no more touched files
dated 1970-01-01
* New `createmode` workaround.
* Fix `fstat` workaround regression.
Release 3.3.2 (2018-04-29)
--------------------------
* New `renamexdev` workaround.
Release 3.3.1 (2017-10-25)
--------------------------
* Manpage is now installed in correct directory.
* SSHFS now supports (or rather: ignores) some options that it may
receive as result of being mounted from ``/etc/mtab``. This includes
things like ``user``, ``netdev``, or ``auto``.
SSHFS 3.3.0 (2017-09-20)
------------------------
* Dropped support for writeback caching (and, as a consequence,
"unreliable append" operation). As of kernel 4.14, the FUSE module's
writeback implementation is not compatible with network filesystems
and there are no imminent plans to change that.
* Add support for mounting from /etc/fstab
* Dropped support for building with autotools.
* Added missing options to man page.
Release 3.2.0 (2017-08-06)
--------------------------
* Re-enabled writeback cache.
* SSHFS now supports O_APPEND.
Release 3.1.0 (2017-08-04)
--------------------------
* Temporarily disabled the writeback cache feature, since there
have been reports of dataloss when appending to files when
writeback caching is enabled.
* Fixed a crash due to a race condition when listing
directory contents.
* For improved backwards compatibility, SSHFS now also silently
accepts the old ``-o cache_*`` options.
Release 3.0.0 (2017-07-08)
--------------------------
* sshfs now requires libfuse 3.1.0 or newer.
* When supported by the kernel, sshfs now uses writeback caching.
* The `cache` option has been renamed to `dir_cache` for clarity.
* Added unit tests
* --debug now behaves like -o debug_sshfs, i.e. it enables sshfs
debugging messages rather than libfuse debugging messages.
* Documented limited hardlink support.
* Added support for building with Meson.
* Added support for more SSH options.
* Dropped support for the *nodelay* workaround - the last OpenSSH
version for which this was useful was released in 2006.
* Dropped support for the *nodelaysrv* workaround. The same effect
(enabling NODELAY on the server side *and* enabling X11 forwarding)
can be achieved by explicitly passing `-o ForwardX11`
* Removed support for `-o workaround=all`. Workarounds should always
enabled explicitly and only when needed. There is no point in always
enabling a potentially changing set of workarounds.
Release 2.9 (2017-04-17)
------------------------
* Improved support for Cygwin.
* Various small bugfixes.
Release 2.8 (2016-06-22)
------------------------
* Added support for the "fsync" extension.
* Fixed a build problem with bitbake
