get_syncresult() caught the sync task's exception, logged a repr server
side and returned 200 OK with a null body. The node then called
.get('options') on that null resulted in:
c1: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get'
and syncfileclient still exited 0 as if syncing had succeeded.
Return the error to the requestor as a 500 with an error payload. On
the node, unwrap the body that grab_url_with_status raises for a
non-success status, print it once and exit non-zero. Only a failure the
server deliberately reported for this sync is terminal. Anything else,
such as a dropped connection, is re-raised so the existing retry loop
handles it as before. The same case now reports
c1: Error performing syncfiles: Syncing failed due to unreadable files: /etc/dangling.conf
c1: 'syncfileclient' exited with code 1

Versioning and releases
The top-level VERSION file names the release the current branch is working toward. Build scripts
call ./mkversion, which turns it into the version stamped on packages: the tag itself on a release
tag (4.0.1), otherwise a development version (4.0.1.dev5+gdeadbee, or 4.0.1~dev5+gdeadbee for
the packages that have no setup.py).
mkversion also derives a version from the newest tag reachable from HEAD and uses whichever is
higher, so forgetting to bump VERSION after tagging the current branch cannot walk the version
backwards. Staying ahead of tags on other branches is what VERSION itself is for: patch releases
are tagged on release branches, which master never sees.
Cutting a new series:
- Land the release commit on master and tag
X.Y.0there. - Create branch
X.Yfrom that tag; it inheritsVERSION=X.Y.0. - Only then bump
VERSIONon master. Doing it before step 2 leaves the release branch on the wrong series.
Patch releases land on branch X.Y and are tagged X.Y.Z there; no VERSION edit is needed.
