Release v3.30.0-beta.1 (#2147)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Improvements for all users:

- All child moves (i.e. document moved because their parent directory
  was moved) will now be notified to the GUI so the child documents
  paths can be updated in the list of recently synchronized documents.
- We've introduced a mechanism to detect dependencies between multiple
  changes on the same side (i.e. the local filesystem or the remote
  Cozy) and synchronize them in the right order. We've added a few
  dependencies that let us solve situations that were known to fail
  (e.g. trashing directories as a whole instead of trashing every
  element separately) and we will add more as needed in the future.
- As stated above, directories will now be trashed as a whole but we'll
  now also keep empty directories in the trash instead of erasing them.
  It should be easier for you to find deleted elements in the trash and
  restore entire directories.
- We've decided to stop linking a local and remote directories at the
  same location during the synchronization as this could lead to issues
  (e.g. if one of them was moved and the other created).
  We'll handle this situation as a conflict instead.
- When propagating documents to the remote Cozy, we should now always
  use the correct parent directory which is not necessarily the remote
  folder with this path.
- The propagation of documents to the remote Cozy should now be
  slightly faster as we make fewer requests to the remote Cozy (i.e. we
  don't look for the parent directory on the remote Cozy anymore).
- Name conflicts detected during the synchronization phase will now be
  notified to you within the main window. Their resolution will only
  happen on your behalf via the action button within the error message.

Improvements for Windows users:

- The detection of local overwriting moves should be more reliable.
  This also improves the propagation of remote overwriting moves to the
  local filesystem.
- The detection of local directory moves when they have a lot of
  content should be more reliable. This also improves the propagation
  of remote directory moves to the local filesystem.

Improvements for macOS users:

- We've fixed an issue in our local changes watcher that could lead to
  synchronizing a file deletion when actually replacing it with another
  one on the local filesystem.
- We've fixed an issue in our local changes watcher that could lead to
  synchronization errors due to invalid metadata when a file was moved
  then modified in a short period of time or modified multiple times in
  a short period of time, leaving you with a blocked synchronization
  until the file is modified, moved or removed.
- Deletions of children of moved directories while the client was
  stopped should now be correctly detected and propagated to the remote
  Cozy.
