Dear all, I am pleased to announce a new release of S3QL, version 5.0.0.
>From the changelog: S3QL 5.0.0 (2023-07-08) ======================= * The internal file system revision has changed. File systems created with this version of S3QL are NOT COMPATIBLE with prior S3QL versions. Existing file systems must be upgraded before they can be used with current S3QL versions. This procedure is NOT REVERSIBLE. To update an existing file system, use the `s3qladm upgrade` command. This upgrade should not take longer than a regular mount + unmount sequence. * S3QL no longer supports storage backends that do not provide immediate consistency. * S3QL no longer maintains entire filesystem metadata in a single storage object. Instead, the database file is distributed across multiple backend objects with a block size configured at mkfs time. This means that (1) S3QL also no longer needs to upload the entire metadata object on unmount; and (2) there is no longer a size limit on the metadata. * The Google Storage backend now retries on network errors when doing the initial validation of the bucket. The following people have contributed code to this release: Daniel Jagszent <dan...@jagszent.de> halsbox <hals...@users.noreply.github.com> Nikolaus Rath <nikol...@rath.org> Viktor Szépe <vik...@szepe.net> (The full list of contributors is available in the AUTHORS file).
