Because we changed our main domain from radicle.xyz to radicle.dev, we
should also change our systemd credential identifiers.
Handling is move into a new function, which also checks the old names
for backwards compatibility.
The main motivation behind this change is to get just a little
telemetry information from nodes on the network, namely the version
of Radicle they are running.
This is achieved by rewriting `impl Default for UserAgent` which now
uses the version information provided by the build script also used
in other crates.
Also, a new configuration option `node.userAgent` is added, which
allows users to override the user agent if they so please, or set
the value `null`, which will in turn send the user agent
`/radicle/`, which is not really helpful, and the default prior to
this commit.
Creations of `UserAgent` in the whole workspace is cleaned up. In
order to do that `UserAgent::test` is introduced.
Each revision now shows a `{base}..{head}` range instead of just the
head. This is meant to clarify when a patch is rebased, and to be
helpful when one might want to observe changes using 'git range-diff'.
Teach the `rad sync` and `rad clone` commands to accept the
`--signed-refs-feature-level` option. This option configures that
fetch to use the minimum feature level provided when fetching from
other nodes. This overrides the value of
`node.fetch.signedReferences.featureLevel.minimum`, and should only be
used in scenarios where it is necessary to downgrade the security of a
fetch for backwards compatibility.
To achieve this, the `Handle::fetch` method introduces an optional
parameter for threading through the `FeatureLevel`.
Add a configuration knob `node.fetch.signedReferences.featureLevel.minimum` to
allow node operators to enforce more strict verification when fetching
Signed References.
In order to allow automatic migration to the feature level 'parent',
introduce a way to force writing signed references, even if the
user-controlled refs are unchanged.
To detect the special case of a Signed References history with a single
and root commit (which would otherwise be detected as feature level
'parent', even though the `refs/rad/sigrefs-parent` ref cannot be
written), keep information about the parent commit in `SignedRefs`.
The output of `rad inspect --sigrefs` is changed to match the more
strict interpretation of the feature level for histories with a single
and root commit.
In order for users to be able to inspect the feature level of Signed
References in a repository, have `rad inspect --sigrefs` attempt to
load Signed References, and, if successful, print the feature level.
To be able to reason about backwards compatibility, downgrade attacks,
and future configurable enforcement of minimum required (security)
features, introduce the concept of a "feature level" in Signed
References.
In this implementation feature levels are assumed to be monotonic, i.e.,
that higher feature levels behave like lower ones, and only add
semantics on top.
Implementing this as an `enum` that is `Ord` flows nicely.
Treatment of the write-side is left for the next commit. Currently,
the write side "promises" `FeatureLevel::Parent`, but is not able
to "keep the promise", since it does not actually inspect the
feature level of the head in case it is unchanged.
CHANGELOG
The scenario A₁ ← B₁ ← A₂ ← B₂ would previously have resulted in A₁
being loaded. This is undesriable, since the latest non-replayed commit
is B₁.
The information regarding the order of duplicates, which is preserved by
`seen`, can be used to recover the first commit.
More sigrefs on the network than previously thought actually are missing
the reference `refs/rad/root`. Revert the change to make this an error,
which was part of commit `d3bc868e84c334f113806df1737f52cc57c5453d`.
IPv6 addresses are already persisted in `config.json` files.
The parsing of these old addresses, e.g. `FE80::0202:B3FF:FE1E:8329:5976` should remain valid.
Emit a warning when they are found.
The output of the address will still enclose the host in `[]`.
Split up signed references into its read and write components.
On the write side:
- Preserve the old behavior of writing references to the blob `/refs`
and sign over the blob.
- Ensure `refs/rad/root` is contained in the `/refs` blob.
- Ensure `refs/rad/sigrefs` is *not* contained in the `/refs` blob.
- Introduce a new (internal) reference `refs/rad/sigrefs-parent`
so that no two `/refs` blob are equal, even if they contain
the same set of (non-internal) refs.
On the read side:
- Preserve the verification of the signature in `/signature` and
the reference `refs/rad/root` (if present).
- Fail verification of `refs/rad/root` is not present.
- Protect against replay attacks by walking the history of the
head of `refs/rad/sigrefs`, skipping interpretation of `/refs`
blobs in case they are identical to a previous `/refs` blob.
This is achieved by searching for repeated contents of the
`/signature` blob.
The reference `refs/rad/sigrefs-parent` is never read from or written to
the Git repository in storage.
The pre-existing implementation of signed references did not include
a nonce, thus duplicate but legitimate sets of references could not
be distinguished from maliciously replayed sets of references.
The new implementation uses `radicle-git-metadata` which is moved from
`dev-dependencies` to `dependencies`.
In issue
29c6c6fc8171287faa0079798ba2d6e3e7fd86f3
was noted that it would be nice to use value parsers for the timeouts in
the CLI.
This patch implements this.

Configuration of database connections is not performed on `open`, which
leaves room for error (e.g. to miss specifying configuration).
Methods on `Profile` automatically supply the configuration of the
profile.
In testing code, just using the default configuration suffices.
The service learns to consult the policies database to check if a
`NodeId` is blocked.
When a node is blocked the service will prevent any inbound or
outbound connection.
In the case of an inbound connection, a disconnect must be submitted
to the reactor.
In the case of an outbound connection, nodes are filtered out from any
connection lists, and prevented from submitting a connect to the
reactor.
Refactors every command that uses a `Sender` to use a `Responder`
instead. There is an exception for `QueryState` since its usage
differs slightly to the other cases.
To make the usage more ergonomic, constructors for the variants that
require a `Responder` are added.
Command line parsing differs on Windows vs. POSIX compliant operating
systems (just consider the differences in handling `\` for paths vs. as
a marker for escape sequences). Thus, on Windows use `winsplit` to
split command arguments instead of `shlex` for Unix-like OSes.
`winsplit` is a small crate with no other dependencies.
Domain Names have restrictions on their total length, and the length
of individual labels[^0].
Since `TypeName`s are expected to be reverse domain name strings, the
total length of the internal string should not exceed 255 and each
component should not exceed 63.

Wire up the new `FetcherService`. This reduces the `Service` fetch
methods down to:
- `fetch`
- `fetched`
- `dequeue_fetches`
- `fetch_refs_at`
This simplifies the code by off-loading the logic to the `fetcher`
family of types, rather than handling the intricacies in the `Service`
itself.
The `Service` now just performs the necessary I/O based on the
returned events from the `fetcher`.
This also removes the fetching state from the node sessions. This
follows the single responsibility, and sessions now only care about
their connectivity.
Breaking changes:
- The `Connected` state of a peer no longer contains fetching
information, which was being returned as part of the JSON payload
result.
- The `rad debug` information for ongoing fetches contained the number
listeners awaiting for results, this was removed.
This command is confusing in name and function. Rather than creating
a hard fork of a repository, with a new identity, it pushes the
default branch to the local user's namespace.
Deprecate it and add some help text.
When a non-delegate attempts to update the identity document, their
action will be rejected.
Provide a better error, along with a hint, to the non-delegate.
Previously, the `references_of` implementation restricted the set of
references to certain categories: heads, tags, notes, rad, and cobs.
This is too restrictive to allow peers to share any references they
want. The only exceptions is references `refs/tmp/heads` that are
created for creating patches.
While it is possible to pass the passphrase via the environment, e.g.
`EnvironmentFile=<path to file that contains "RAD_PASSPHRASE=…">`
this is less secure than passing it via a file, because the environment
is inherited down the process tree.
Thus, allow using a systemd credential. The ID of the credential must be
xyz.radicle.node.passphrase
and is not user-configurable.
Passing the passphrase via file is now possible with
`LoadCredential=xyz.radicle.node.passphrase:<path to file that contains passphrase>`
This requires just a bit of plumbing in `radicle-node`.
Because this mechanism is more secure than using the environment
variable `RAD_PASSPHRASE`, it takes priority. That is, if both the
systemd credential is available, *and* the environment variable
`RAD_PASSPHRASE` is set, the former is preferred.
Heads-up:
1. The contents of the file must be valid UTF-8 (see documentation of
`std::fs::read_to_string`). Assuming that the passphrase is at some
point chosen by the user and typed on a keyboard, this does not
seem like a severe restriction.
2. The contents of the file are not processed otherwise, i.e. line
breaks (notably at the end of the file) are not stripped.
The related `issue/8bd040e9de05e7fc27e373ebc1649ff4ad930e7a` asked for a
very similar feature: Passing the passphrase via a file named by the
value of the of the environment variable `RAD_PASSPHRASE_FILE`.
It was also briefly discussed at
<https://radicle.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/369277-heartwood/topic/.60RAD_PASSPHRASE_FILE.60/with/529104447>.
While it is possible to use systemd credentials via
LoadCredential=xyz.radicle.node.secret:…
ExecStart=radicle-node … --secret "${CREDENTIALS_DIRECTORY}/xyz.radicle.node.secret"
Make usage more convenient and directly support passing the secret key
via a systemd credential. The ID of the credential must be
xyz.radicle.node.secret
and is not user-configurable.
A systemd service unit file might contain:
LoadCredential=xyz.radicle.node.secret:…
ExecStart=radicle-node …
This requires just a bit of plumbing in `radicle-node`.
The preference order for the path of the secret key is:
1. The command line argument `--secret`.
2. The systemd credential.
3. The configuration file.
4. The default location to preserve backward compatibility.
The reason to prefer the systemd credential over the configuration file
is that it uses a mechanism that is influenced by the environment of the
process, which is deemed "closer at runtime" or "more dynamic" than a
configuration file. Ad-hoc overrides are still possible via the
commandline argument.
A rewrite of the argument parsing portions of the `rad issue` subcommand
using `clap` instead of `lexopt`.
From a user's perspective, the look-and-feel of `rad issue` does not
change much. Although, the most prominent change is to rely on
`clap`'a default error template which looks a bit different from what we
use usually (`error: ...` vs. `✗ Error: ...`).
Leaving the above restriction aside, subcommand mis-usage is
reported more verbosely.
Also configure `clap` to use colored output for errors and help pages.
In help output, headers are colored with `Magenta` to match the overall
CLI styling.
Specify a type that captures the different actions that can be take
when using the `comment` command: `Comment`, `Reply`, and `Edit`.
Move the functions that run the corresponding actions into a `comment`
module.
To preserve the "default command" behaviour being `rad issue list`,
e.g., `rad issue --solved` behaving like `rad issue list --solved`,
introduce a new type `EmptyArgs`to also parse arguments without a
subcommand. In case no subcommand was parsed, construct `Command::List`
with from `EmptyArgs`.

The output of this command is confusing. It is not clear which of the
hashes printed is that of the revision and which one is the respective
head commit.
Further, the hash is omitted on the initial revision, adding confusion.
Further, the terminology of "revised" vs. "updated" is confusing.
This rewrites `timeline.rs` to drop the distinction between various
revisions (in wording, the small icon is still different) and cleans up
the output.
Attention is paid to alignment of the output. Now all verbs of updates
("accepted", "rejected", "reviewed", "merged") are aligned, and authors
("… by …") are also aligned.
The rewrite itself is not for better code quality or readability.
Note that all the code in this file only accessed via one `fn` by one
callsite in the implementation of `rad patch`.
