Introduce 'XZ_THREADS' to override the default number of threads used
for compression, which is still set to '1'. As using multiple threads
will increase the amount of memory needed during the compression and
potentially influences the size of the created archive, setting the
variable limits the impact.
Fixes#3431.
In cases where the signing failed (maybe the passphrase for the key was
not available at this time), there remained an empty .sig file, which is
newer than the to-be-signed file and, therefore, prevents subsequent
signing processes.
The input for the pkg index is located at gems/run/sculpt/index.
The sculpt.run script uses this input for generating the depot index
file at depot/<user>/index/<version>.
The tool/depot/publish tool support arguments of the form
<user>/index/<version> where <version> corresponds to the Sculpt
version.
Issue #3172
Allow the gpg utility to be overridden on the command line. For
example, './tool/depot/publish GPG="ssh 10.0.1.3 gpg" ...' would invoke
a remote gpg over SSH.
Fix#2981
The timestamp-based rules of make do not work well for the publish tool
because depot archives are often re-created with the same content but a
different modification time, in particular when creating archives via
'FORCE'. This way, those archives are re-published every time, which
becomes a time-consuming operation since all archives must be signed.
This patch filters the targets based on the content that is already
present in the public/ location. All existing archives are skipped.
This patch replaces the toy downloader (that merely copied files
locally, for testing) with the mechanics needed to download files from a
www server.
It also changes the use of GPG to use detached signatures.
