Datalad-next

🐛 Bug Fixes

- Small change in the tests of the `tree` command for more robust behavior
across Python and pytest versions.

🐛 Bug Fixes

- `CredentialManager` no longer splits a credential input prompt into a
prompt message (`ui.message()`) and the actual input (`ui.question()`)
this enables DataLad Gooey to properly render this jointly as an
input dialog with a description.

💫 Enhancements and new features

- `CredentialManager.get()` and the `credentials` command now also report
credential fragments for which there is no secret on record. This enables
the discovery of DataLad's legacy credentials, and for setting a secret
for them for use with the next credential system. Moreover, it reports
half-configured credentials, and facilitates their clean-up or completion,
for example with DataLad Gooey's credential management GUI.

💫 Enhancements and new features

- A new patch set break up the implementation of `clone_dataset()`
into its procedural components, and makes it more accessible for
extension patches. There are no behavior changes associated with
this internal reorganization.

🐛 Bug Fixes

- Fixed datalad-push always reporting success when pushing to
an export remote.

https://github.com/datalad/datalad-next/pull/93 (by bpoldrack)

- Token secrets entered for GitHub-like sibling creation are now stored by
default under a name matching the API endpoint hostname (e.g.
'api.github.com'), rather than a confusing and conflict-prone 'None'.
Using the `--credential` option, an alternative name can be given, as before.

💫 Enhancements and new features

- The `configuration` command now indicates the absence of a particular
configuration setting queried via `get` with a `status='impossible'`
result. This change enables the distinction of an unset configuration
item from an item set to an empty string with the default
CLI result renderer.

- The default of the configuration item `datalad.annex.retry`
(in effect when not explicitly configured otherwise) is changed
from `3` to `1`. This prevents a set of performance and user experience
issues resulting from, e.g., repeated download attempts, even
when no change in outcome can be expected (e.g., a wrong or
no credential supplied). This change can cause a loss of robustness
in download behavior for services that indeed experience spurious
failures. Its is recommended to specifically parametrize such command
calls (e.g., downloads in CI runs) with an appropriate configuration
override.

https://github.com/datalad/datalad/issues/6509 (by mih)

- New `tree` command for traversing a directory hierarchy.
Like the UNIX equivalent, it can visualize a directory tree.
Additionally, it annotates the output with DataLad-related
information, like the location of dataset, and their nesting
depth. Besides visualization, `tree` also reports structured
data in the form of result records that enable other applications
to use `tree` for gathering data from the file system.

📝 Documentation

- Add an example of adding a `user_password`-type credentials, with a
given `user` property, to the examples in the `credentials`
command. https://github.com/datalad/datalad-next/pull/103 (by mslw)

💫 Enhancements and new features

- The `configuration` command no longer requires a datasets to be present
for a `get` operation to retrieve a configuration item from scope `global`.

🐛 Bug Fixes

- Fix a missing import in the credential retrieval for GitHub-like sibling
creation, which made it impossible to discover credentials without
providing an explicit credential name.
