enableremote amazon git-annex: Unknown remote type S3

[jcohenadad]

Maybe the problem I've been having in #24 is related to the fact that amazon remote does not seem to be enabled on my repos:

julien-macbook:~/code/spine-generic/data-multi-subject $ git annex info 
trusted repositories: 0
semitrusted repositories: 5

But then:

julien-macbook:~/code/spine-generic/data-multi-subject $ git annex enableremote amazon
enableremote amazon 
git-annex: Unknown remote type S3 (pick from: git gcrypt p2p bup directory rsync web bittorrent webdav adb tahoe glacier ddar git-lfs hook external)
failed
git-annex: enableremote: 1 failed

Making sure I have the correct git-annex version:

julien-macbook:~/code/spine-generic/data-multi-subject $ git-annex version
git-annex version: 8.20200810

[jcohenadad]

However, based on this comment spine-generic/data-multi-subject_DO-NOT-USE#20 (comment), with autoenable=true, it seems like git-annex enableremote amazon is not required after all 🤷‍♂️

From #18 (comment)

i'm beginning to think that there might be something wrong with my installed version of git-annex:

This looks indeed like a version problem. You did did brew install git-annex right?

Here's mine, from pacman -S git-annex:

Both claim to be the same version, but obviously they're not because they have different plugins compiled in.

This is the build script you would have used: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/a80db9e908e36bcf4db0d74a9f3abacc97efa285/Formula/git-annex.rb; here's the one I used: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/blob/511d422f8aaa8ada1290994dc855c37fb1cacef9/trunk/PKGBUILD. I think the difference is that Arch's says it depends on "haskell-aws".

I'm taking a look on a macOS machine now and I see the same thing you do. This was working for you three weeks ago. Maybe a brew update introduced a regression?

[kousu]

It looks like either https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/59330/files (switching build scripts) or https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/59470/files (bumping the version number) caused a regression.

I'm going to try https://stackoverflow.com/a/4158763 to try installing an older version and open a bug report with brew.

In the meantime, can you use conda's version?

[jcohenadad]

Installing older version of brew (thanks @kousu ):

brew uninstall git-annex
cd $(brew --repository)/Library/Taps/homebrew/homebrew-core
git checkout -b git-annex-old 23a4f9fb8513c805fba508f3b769075fb2e090b6^
HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 brew install git-annex

Fixing my local repos:

git-annex copy --to amazon
git-annex sync

Problem: my local copy did not have the actual files (only the symlinks), so i manually copied them from our internal server, and added them to the local repos:

git add -u
# reupload to amazon
git-annex copy --to amazon

Removing dead mirrors:

[kousu]

For the record: no, @jcohenadad can't use conda's version because conda only packages git-annex for linux: https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/git-annex/files (archive, archive).
