https://git.schokokeks.org/derivepassphrase.git/tree/f3513835b687058962e571fa6648fbad6e28d1ec Recent commits feed provided by GitList. Add docstrings to the `_prepare_payload` and `_load_key_optimistically` helper functions. Also change the signature of `_load_key_optimistically` to take the test key structure directly, instead of taking a (dict) key to lookup the structure. (These types of things become apparent when writing docstrings, even for otherwise internal functions.) https://git.schokokeks.org/derivepassphrase.git/commit/f3513835b687058962e571fa6648fbad6e28d1ec software@the13thletter.info (Marco Ricci) Sat, 27 Dec 2025 17:19:38 +0100 f3513835b687058962e571fa6648fbad6e28d1ec https://git.schokokeks.org/derivepassphrase.git/commit/1ea2ba094e6e877e42a4d3e84c0483a66bbbfeca software@the13thletter.info (Marco Ricci) Sat, 27 Dec 2025 17:10:07 +0100 1ea2ba094e6e877e42a4d3e84c0483a66bbbfeca The function is now called `_load_key_optimistically`, and returns a success indication whether the key was (potentially already) loaded or not. Also, the private key blob cannot be `None` anymore, so the function no longer has degenerate cases. https://git.schokokeks.org/derivepassphrase.git/commit/71f2f540c1f2e12948c0dd11b8eaef98233d396b software@the13thletter.info (Marco Ricci) Sat, 27 Dec 2025 17:01:22 +0100 71f2f540c1f2e12948c0dd11b8eaef98233d396b https://git.schokokeks.org/derivepassphrase.git/commit/40ecd7a6fd47f1103cd203d437b9ff9b8efd6556 software@the13thletter.info (Marco Ricci) Sat, 27 Dec 2025 15:15:35 +0100 40ecd7a6fd47f1103cd203d437b9ff9b8efd6556 Extract the `_prepare_payload` and the `_load_keys_optimistically` helper functions from the `ssh_agent_client_with_test_keys_loaded` fixture function. The `_load_keys_optimistically` helper function needs further refactoring into a per-key function, not a per-keyset function; to be added in a following commit. https://git.schokokeks.org/derivepassphrase.git/commit/4bfe78dfbae036695c68fbe80bb060c926a80d1c software@the13thletter.info (Marco Ricci) Sat, 27 Dec 2025 15:09:33 +0100 4bfe78dfbae036695c68fbe80bb060c926a80d1c The `ssh_agent_client_with_test_keys_loaded` fixture function is due to be split, moving the upload bits and the `prepare_payload` function to new top-level helper functions. Rename the `prepare_payload` function, and add parameter definitions so that the extracted functions will make immediate sense. https://git.schokokeks.org/derivepassphrase.git/commit/b0b10b66acf32597b853b36fd55a048dfde977ba software@the13thletter.info (Marco Ricci) Sat, 27 Dec 2025 14:57:17 +0100 b0b10b66acf32597b853b36fd55a048dfde977ba The old implementation did not record *which* trailing data we were seeing, on the grounds that well-behaved SSH agents would not send any trailing data anyway (i.e., that this error condition was a failsafe). However, while implementing Windows named pipe support, I observed Pageant sporadically returning malformed responses that trigger this error. Without actually recording the trailing data, it is hard to understand whether this is Pageant's fault (unlikely) or ours (more likely), and specifically, whether we're implementing the protocol incorrectly (unlikely), or rather the communication channel (much more likely). So the `TrailingDataError` class now optionally records the actual raw response and the trailing data portion that caused the error, to aid debugging. https://git.schokokeks.org/derivepassphrase.git/commit/5bcd2c39308880309286a2243e3795833817d1a5 software@the13thletter.info (Marco Ricci) Sat, 27 Dec 2025 14:43:35 +0100 5bcd2c39308880309286a2243e3795833817d1a5 Use parametric types to allow better introspection into decorated classes. https://git.schokokeks.org/derivepassphrase.git/commit/240ec594a6804125a8002e8b499531fca6aebc4f software@the13thletter.info (Marco Ricci) Fri, 26 Dec 2025 12:25:39 +0100 240ec594a6804125a8002e8b499531fca6aebc4f The how-to "How to set up derivepassphrase vault with an SSH key" and the reference documentation "Prerequisites for using derivepassphrase vault with an SSH key" include new sections on Pageant and OpenSSH on Windows. For the latter, the "prerequisites" document also includes information on the deficiencies of the Windows port of OpenSSH, i.e., that the connection is aborted upon receiving unsupported requests (in violation of the communication protocol) and that the port lacks the features which normally distinguish OpenSSH from Pageant. We also expand the section on GnuPG's OpenSSH emulation on Windows in the "prerequisites" document: that the mode is untested because the documentation is wrong, and that we're now waiting for feedback from the GnuPG developers. https://git.schokokeks.org/derivepassphrase.git/commit/efda816c5ef5ca7c40afb44dc5ebe88218063527 software@the13thletter.info (Marco Ricci) Thu, 25 Dec 2025 23:37:49 +0100 efda816c5ef5ca7c40afb44dc5ebe88218063527 https://git.schokokeks.org/derivepassphrase.git/commit/efe8135862681356dc11fc5b958f2973f744f4ef software@the13thletter.info (Marco Ricci) Thu, 25 Dec 2025 16:51:03 +0100 efe8135862681356dc11fc5b958f2973f744f4ef
