82df7e6f and 9856fef5 updated tests that used test points in preparation for the feature not being available in the C code.
Since tests points are no longer used remove the infrastructure.
Also remove one stray --test option in mock/all that was essentially a noop but no longer works now that the option has been removed.
This should have been removed when the support for the option was removed in c7333190.
The option cannot be removed entirely because we don't want to error in the case where --force was specified but the stanza is valid.
The additional details include databases that can be used for selective restore and a list of tablespaces and symlinks with their default destinations.
This information is not included in the JSON output because it requires reading the manifest which is too IO intensive to do for all manifests. We plan to include this information for JSON in a future release.
This restore type automatically adds standby_mode=on to recovery.conf.
This could be accomplished previously by setting --recovery-option=standby_mode=on but PostgreSQL 12 requires standby mode to be enabled by a special file named standby.signal.
The new restore type allows us to maintain a common interface between PostgreSQL versions.
These features finally make the ls command practical.
Currently the JSON contains only name, type, and size. We may add more fields in the future, but these seem like the minimum needed to be useful.
If this option is set then ports appended to repo-s3-endpoint or repo-s3-host will be ignored.
Setting this option explicitly may be the only way to use a bare ipv6 address with S3 (since multiple colons confuse the parser) but we plan to improve this in the future.
The tests and documentation have been using the core storage layer but soon that will depend entirely on the C library, creating a bootstrap problem (i.e. the storage layer will be needed to build the C library).
Create a simplified Posix storage layer to be used by documentation and the parts of the test code that build and execute the actual tests. The actual tests will still use the core storage driver so they can interact with any type of storage.
This was not enforced at parse time because repo1-cipher-type could be passed on the command-line even in cases where encryption was not needed by the subprocess.
Filter repo-cipher-type so it is never passed on the command line. If the subprocess does not have access to the passphrase then knowing the encryption type is useless anyway.
Allow commands to be skipped by default in the command help but still work if help is requested for the command directly. There may be other uses for the flag in the future.
Update help for ls now that it is exposed.
Allows listing repo paths/files from the command-line, to be used primarily for testing and debugging.
This command is internal-only so the interface may change at any time without notice.
The new name is preferred because pgBackRest does not support any SSL protocol versions (they are all considered to be insecure).
The old name will continue to be accepted.
The rules for when a C remote is required are getting complicated and will get worse when restoreFile() is migrated.
Instead, set the --c option when a C remote is required. This option will be removed when the remote is entirely implemented in C.
These constants are easier than using cfgOptionName() and cfgCommandName() and lead to cleaner code and simpler to construct messages.
String versions are provided. Eventually all the strings will be used in the config structures, but for now they are useful to avoid wrapping with strNew().
When a repository server is configured, commands that modify the repository acquire a remote lock as well as a local lock for extra protection against multiple writers.
Instead of the custom logic used in Perl, make remote locking part of the command configuration.
This also means that the C remote needs the stanza since it is used to construct the lock name. We may need to revisit this at a later date.
This condition was not being properly checked for in the C code and it caused problems in the info command, at the very least.
Instead of applying a local fix, introduce a new path option type that will rigorously check the format of any incoming paths.

This command was previously forked off from the archive-push command which required a bit of artificial option and log manipulation.
A separate command is easier to test and will work on platforms that don't have fork(), e.g. Windows.
This behavior allowed a command like this to run without error:
pgbackrest backup --stanza=db full
Even though it actually performed an incremental backup in most circumstances because the `full` parameter was ignored.
Instead, output an error and exit.
Suggested by Jason O'Donnell.
The C local is only used for C commands in the main process.
Some tweaking of the existing protocolGet() command was required. Originally the idea was to share the function for local and remote requests but the differences (as in Perl) were too great to make that practical.

Executes a child process and allows the calling process to communicate with it using read/write io.
This object is specially tailored to implement the protocol layer and may or may not be generally applicable to general purpose
execution.
This somehow was not configured as a size option when it was added. It worked, but queue sizes could not be specified in shorthand, e.g. 128GB.
This is not a breaking change because currently configured integer values will be read as bytes.
Reported by Ronan Dunklau.
S3 key options (repo1-s3-key/repo1-s3-key-secret) were not required which meant that users got an ugly assertion when they were missing rather than a tidy configuration error.
Only the local/remote commands need them to be optional. This is because local/remote commands get all their options from the command line but secrets cannot be passed on the command line. Instead, secrets are passed to the local/remote commands via the protocol for any operation that needs them.
The configuration system allows required to be set per command so use that to improve the error messages while not breaking the local/remote commands.
Code generation saved files even when they had not changed, which often caused code generation cascades. So, don't save files unless they have changed.
Use rsync to determine which files have changed since the last test run. The manifest of changed files is saved and not removed until all code generation and builds have completed. If an error occurs the work will be redone on the next run.
The eventual goal is to do all the builds from the test/repo directory created by rsync but for now it is only used to track changes.
Use checksums rather than timestamps to determine if files have changed. This is useful in cases where the timestamps may not be trustworthy, e.g. when performing an incremental after failing over to a standby.
If checksum delta is enabled then checksums will be used for verification of resumed backups, even if they are full. Resumes have always used checksums to verify the files in the repository, enabling delta performs checksums on the database files as well.
Note that the user must manually enable this feature in cases were it would be useful or just keep in enabled all the time. A future commit will address automatically enabling the feature in cases where it seems likely to be useful.

This option was previously allowed on the command-line only for no particular reason that we could determine.
Being able to specify it in the config file seems like a good idea and won't change current usage.

The log-subprocess feature added in 22765670 failed to take into account the naming for remote processes spawned by local processes. Not only was the local command used for the naming of log files but the process id was not pass through. This meant every remote log was named "[stanza]-local-remote-000" which is confusing and meant multiple processes were writing to the same log.
Instead, pass the real command and process id to the remote. This required a minor change in locking to ignore locks if process id is greater than 0 since remotes started by locals never lock.
Offline operation runs counter to the purpose of this command, which is to check if archiving and backups are working correctly.
Reported by Jason O'Donnell.
pgBackRest currently has no way to request new credentials so the entire command (e.g. backup, restore) must complete before the credentials expire.
