Use sftp for deploying remote components instead of scp. sftp has the
advantage that it can also create directries, chmod files etc., so
that we can do everything in one call of sftp instead of mixing scp
and ssh calls.
The downside of sftp is that it can't switch to ~ resp. %userprofile%
for the remote side, and we have to assume that sftp starts in the
user's home dir. This is the default and works on my machines!
cdc_rsync and cdc_stream check the CDC_SFTP_COMMAND env var now and
accept --sftp-command flags. If they are not set, the corresponding
scp flag and env var is still used, with scp replaced by sftp. This is
most likely correct as sftp and scp usually reside in the same
directory and share largely identical parameters.
This CL removes the port arguments for both tools.
The port argument can also be specified via the ssh-command and
scp-command flags. In fact, if a port is specified by both port flags
and ssh/scp commands, they interfere with each other. For ssh, the one
specified in ssh-command wins. For scp, the one specified in
scp-command wins. To fix this, one would have to parse scp-command and
remove the port arg there. Or we could just remove the ssh-port arg.
This is what this CL does. Note that if you need a custom port, it's
very likely that you also have to define custom ssh and scp commands.
Implements the cdc_stream client and adjusts asset streaming in
various places to work better outside of a GGP environment.
This CL tries to get quoting for SSH commands right. It also brings
back the ability to start a streaming session from
asset_stream_manager.
Also cleans up Bazel targets setup. Since the sln file is now in root,
it is no longer necessary to prepend ../ to relative filenames to
make clicking on errors work.
The tools allow efficient and fast synchronization of large directory
trees from a Windows workstation to a Linux target machine.
cdc_rsync* support efficient copy of files by using content-defined
chunking (CDC) to identify chunks within files that can be reused.
asset_stream_manager + cdc_fuse_fs support efficient streaming of a
local directory to a remote virtual file system based on FUSE. It also
employs CDC to identify and reuse unchanged data chunks.
