TapTap 34970b961c feat: per-attribute preservation flags -p/-t/-o/-g with --no-* negations (protocol 2.22.0)
Split FastSync's single use_metadata bundle into four independent rsync-parity attributes: preserve_perms, preserve_times, preserve_owner, preserve_group. use_metadata is now a derived transport bit (config_derived_use_metadata).

CLI: real -p/--perms, -t/--times, -o/--owner, -g/--group plus --no-perms/--no-times/--no-owner/--no-group (short and long) and --no-preserve; -a is now rsync -rlptgoD; --preserve = -pt; -A implies -p; -X does not; --chmod implies -p; --usermap/--groupmap/--chown imply owner/group per side; --incremental/--delta still auto-preserve unless negated.

Receiver: per-attribute FileAttrPolicy gating for files, dirs (modes applied at end of transfer), symlinks and specials; rsync -E read-bit rule; new files get source_mode & ~umask sanitized (no group/other write); per-side identity resolution; deferred directory metadata; batch dir-metadata replay; daemon modules without 'client owner = yes' no longer refuse plain -a but force super off (no ownership) with a warning.

Wire: PROTOCOL_VERSION 2.21.0 -> 2.22.0 (four appended config bools, golden 653 / 95530566005420798). FileMetadata/chunk/batch framing unchanged. Docs/CHANGELOG/CMake updated to 2.22.0.

release Prepares a FastSync release — version bump, changelog, build verification, and git tagging. Use when the user says "prepare release", "bump version", "tag release", or wants to cut a new version.

Release Skill

Prepares a new release of FastSync. This skill CAN edit files, commit, and tag.

Workflow

Step 1: Determine Version

Ask the user or determine from context:

  • Major (X.0.0) — breaking protocol changes, incompatible CLI changes
  • Minor (x.Y.0) — new features, backward compatible
  • Patch (x.y.Z) — bug fixes, no protocol changes

Current version: PROTOCOL_VERSION "2.22.0" in src/shared/config.h

Step 2: Check Protocol Version

If the wire protocol changed, bump PROTOCOL_VERSION in src/shared/config.h:

#define PROTOCOL_VERSION "1.2.0"  // or "2.0.0" for breaking

Protocol version changes require:

  • Both client and server to be updated together
  • Backward compatibility considerations documented
  • Migration path clear

Step 3: Verify Build and Tests

rm -rf build
cmake -B build -S .
cmake --build build -j$(nproc)
./build/tests
python3 -m pytest tests/integration/ -n 4 --dist=load -m "not setpriv"

ALL tests must pass before release.

Step 4: Run Sanitizer Checks

# ASan
rm -rf build-asan
cmake -B build-asan -S . -DSANITIZER=address
cmake --build build-asan -j$(nproc)
./build-asan/tests

Step 5: Update README (If Needed)

Check if README needs updates:

  • New features documented
  • New CLI flags documented
  • Benchmark results updated
  • Build instructions current

Step 6: Create Release Commit

git add -A
git commit -m "Release vX.Y.Z

- <list of changes>
- Protocol version: X.Y.Z
- Tested: unit tests, integration tests, ASan"

Step 7: Tag the Release

git tag -a vX.Y.Z -m "Release vX.Y.Z"

Step 8: Push and Open dev → main PR

main is protected and only receives changes via dev → main PRs (see AGENTS.md). Never push directly to main.

# Push the release commit and tag to dev
git push origin dev
git push origin vX.Y.Z

# Open the dev → main release PR for review + CI
tea pr create --repo TapTap/FastSync --head dev --base main \
  --title "Release vX.Y.Z" \
  --description "Release vX.Y.Z"

Then wait for the full CI to pass and request review before the PR is merged to main.

Step 9: Report

=== RELEASE SUMMARY ===
Version: vX.Y.Z
Protocol: X.Y.Z
Commit: <hash>
Tag: vX.Y.Z
Changes:
  - <list of changes in this release>
Build: PASS
Tests: PASS (<passed>/<total>)
ASan: CLEAN

Rules

  • DO verify all tests pass before release
  • DO run sanitizer checks before release
  • DO update README if features changed
  • DO tag releases with annotated tags
  • DON'T release if tests fail
  • DON'T skip sanitizer checks
  • DON'T change code during release (only version bump + docs)
