README: say which records quak could not decrypt lib.backup() reports

It reports each such album, and each such file in its scope that has no copy that decrypted, not every record the library left out. Model: opus-5-5

  pool's limit of originals at once, 5 by default, instead of one at a time
  (issue 182). That many workers take files from one shared list, each doing all
  the work for one original, its `--verify` hashing included, so no more
  originals than that are open at once. `BackupLibrary` says the limit as
  `contentConcurrency`. A test holds each download at the fake Ente server to
  count those in flight. Once a worker has thrown, as one does when `onProgress`
  throws, or the lock is lost, no worker takes another file; the backup fails
  once the originals under way are in place, and a lost lock stops it before it
  fetches ML data.

  returns the lock, which `quak backup` passes to `lib.backup()` as `lock`. The
  backup then stops before it starts another file with
  `lost the lock on DIR: REASON`, which `quak backup` prints as one line before
  it exits 1. Releasing a lost lock leaves `backup.lock` alone. Tests in

Author	SHA1	Message	Date
sneak	8bc542f1e5	README: say which records quak could not decrypt lib.backup() reports check / check (push) Waiting to run Details It reports each such album, and each such file in its scope that has no copy that decrypted, not every record the library left out. Model: opus-5-5	2026-10-14 01:41:38 +00:00
sneak	c465496682	Back up from a copy that decrypted even outside a run's albums; README wording A file whose copy in an album in scope does not decrypt is now backed up from a copy that decrypted in any album, not only one in scope; with no such copy it is still recorded as failed. The README now says the exit code stays at 1 until the server sends a copy that decrypts or deletes it, and that only a run without --json prints the FAILED album line. StoredMetadata.undecryptable is required, like the other fields. Model: opus-5-5	2026-10-14 01:41:38 +00:00
sneak	0a756be5de	Test: a backup limited to one album stores a file whose copy there does not decrypt A run of lib.backup() limited to "Trip" must store a file whose copy in Trip does not decrypt when its copy in an album the run skips does. Today the run neither stores it nor records it as failed. Model: opus-5-5	2026-10-14 01:41:38 +00:00
sneak	a0a97f1019	One album or file quak cannot decrypt no longer stops a refresh or a backup (closes #181 ) collectionsSince and filesSince put a row that does not decrypt or parse in an undecryptable list with the reason instead of throwing. The refresh leaves it out, an album with its files, and the store keeps the list in metadata.json until the server sends a copy that decrypts or deletes it, since the next refresh asks only for changes. lib.backup() records each such file in failures.json as "could not be decrypted: <reason>", unless a copy in another album decrypted, logs one line per such album and lists their IDs in undecryptableAlbums; quak backup exits 1 while any remain. Tests use a stand-in Ente server with real encryption. Model: opus-5-5	2026-10-14 01:41:38 +00:00
