Since logrotate runs in a daily cron, this practically means "daily,
but only if it's larger than 500M." For large installs with large
traffic, this is effectively daily for 10 days; for small installs, it
is an unknown amount of time.
Switch to daily logfiles, defaulting to 14 days to match nginx; this
can be overridden using a zulip.conf setting. This makes it easier to
ensure that access logs are only kept for a bounded period of time.
Previously, we had an architecture where CSS inlining for emails was
done at provision time in inline_email_css.py. This was necessary
because the library we were using for this, Premailer, was extremely
slow, and doing the inlining for every outgoing email would have been
prohibitively expensive.
Now that we've migrated to a more modern library that inlines the
small amount of CSS we have into emails nearly instantly, we are able
to remove the complex architecture built to work around Premailer
being slow and just do the CSS inlining as the final step in sending
each individual email.
This has several significant benefits:
* Removes a fiddly provisioning step that made the edit/refresh cycle
for modifying email templates confusing; there's no longer a CSS
inlining step that, if you forget to do it, results in your testing a
stale variant of the email templates.
* Fixes internationalization problems related to translators working
with pre-CSS-inlined emails, and then Django trying to apply the
translators to the post-CSS-inlined version.
* Makes the send_custom_email pipeline simpler and easier to improve.

Ever since we started bundling the app with webpack, there’s been less
and less overlap between our ‘static’ directory (files belonging to
the frontend app) and Django’s interpretation of the ‘static’
directory (files served directly to the web).
Split the app out to its own ‘web’ directory outside of ‘static’, and
remove all the custom collectstatic --ignore rules. This makes it
much clearer what’s actually being served to the web, and what’s being
bundled by webpack. It also shrinks the release tarball by 3%.

These hooks are run immediately around the critical section of the
upgrade. If the upgrade fails for preparatory reasons, the pre-deploy
hook may not be run; if it fails during the upgrade, the post-deploy
hook will not be run. Hooks are called from the CWD of the new
deploy, with arguments of the old version and the new version. If
they exit with non-0 exit code, the deploy aborts.

This was last really used in d7a3570c7e, in 2013, when it was
`/home/humbug/logs`.
Repoint the one obscure piece of tooling that writes there, and remove
the places that created it.
`check_version` in `install-yarn` had the rather careful check that
the yarn it installed into `/usr/bin/yarn` was the yarn which was
first in the user's `$PATH`. This caused problems when the user had a
pre-existing `/usr/local/bin/yarn`; however, those problems are
limited to the `install-yarn` script itself, since the nearly all
calls to yarn from Zulip's code already hardcode the `/srv/zulip-yarn`
location, and do not depend on what is in `$PATH`.
Remove the checks in `install-yarn` that depend on the local `$PATH`,
and stop installing our `yarn` into it. We also adjust the two
callsites which did not specify the full path to `yarn`, so use
`/srv/zulip-yarn`.

During installation on a new host, `create-database` attempts to
verify that there isn't a bunch of data already in the database which
is it about to drop and recreate. In the most common case, this
statement emits a scary-looking warning, since the database does not
exist yet:
```
+ /home/zulip/deployments/current/scripts/setup/create-database
+ POSTGRES_USER=postgres
++ crudini --get /etc/zulip/zulip.conf postgresql database_name
++ echo zulip
+ DATABASE_NAME=zulip
++ crudini --get /etc/zulip/zulip.conf postgresql database_user
++ echo zulip
+ DATABASE_USER=zulip
++ cd /
++ su postgres -c 'psql -v ON_ERROR_STOP=1 -Atc '\''SELECT COUNT(*) FROM zulip.zerver_message;'\'' zulip'
psql: error: connection to server on socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432" failed: FATAL: database "zulip" does not exist
```
Because we are attempting to gracefully handle the case where the
database does not exist yet, we also continue (and drop the database)
in other, less expected cases -- for instance, if database contains a
schema we do not expect.
Explicitly check for the database existence first, and once we verify
that, allow any further failures in the `SELECT COUNT(*)` to abort
`create-database`. This serves the dual purpose of hiding the "FATAL"
error for the common case when the database does not exist, as well as
preventing dropping the database if anything else goes awry.
If a previous attempt at an upgrade failed for some reason, the new
PostgreSQL may be installed, and the conversion will succeed, but the
new PostgreSQL daemon will not be running (Puppet does not force it to
start). This causes the upgrade to fail when analyzing statistics,
since the daemon isn't running.
Explicitly start the new PostgreSQL; this does nothing in most cases,
but will provider better resiliency when recovering from previous
partial upgrades.
Some terminals (e.g. ssh from OS X) set an invalid locale, which
causes the `pg_upgradecluster` call late in the upgrade to fail.
Force a known locale, for consistency. This mirrors the settings in
upgrade-zulip-stage-2, set in 11ab545f3b, and its subsequent
cleanups in 64c608a51a, ee0f4ca330, and eda9ce2364.
‘exit’ is pulled in for the interactive interpreter as a side effect
of the site module; this can be disabled with python -S and shouldn’t
be relied on.

If there is a syntax error in `settings.py`, `restart-server` should
provide a reasonable message about this. It did so prior to
af08bcdb3f, becausde any invocation `./manage.py` without
`--skip-checks` will verify `settings.py`, among several other checks.
After af08bcdb3f, there are no `./manage.py` calls in most restarts,
which fa77be6e6c took further.
Add an explicit `./manage.py check` in the default case.
upgrade-zulip-stage-2 overrides this by passing `--skip-checks`, for
performance. This also means that `upgrade-zulip-from-git` itself
picks up the same `--skip-checks` flag, since it inherits the same
flag parsing, though that is perhaps of dubious utility.
Although Node.js 18 is not the active LTS release for another 3 weeks,
the Node.js 16 end-of-life date was moved forward to September 2023,

This has never actually been used -- and does not make sense with the
check-all-queues-at-once model switched to in 88a123d5e0. The
Tornado processes are the only ones we expect to be non-1, and since

config, not passed as an argument.
`postgresql-14.4` is a notable upgrade in the PostgreSQL series, as it
fixes potential database corruption from `CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY`
statements which are run while rows are modified[1]. However, it also
requires an upgrade from `libllvm9` to `libllvm10`, which means it is
not installed by a mere `apt-get upgrade`.
Add the `--with-new-pkgs` flag to all of the potentially relevant
`apt-get upgrade` calls, so that this (and similar) packages are
upgraded successfully.

30457ecd02 removed the `--mirror` from
initial clones, but did not add back `--bare`, which `--mirror`
implies. This leads to `/srv/zulip.git` having a working tree in it,
with a `/srv/zulip.git/.git` directory.
This is mostly harmless, and since the bug was recent, not worth
introducing additional complexity into the upgrade process to handle.
Calling `git clone --bare`, however, would clone the refs into
`refs/heads/`, not the `refs/remotes/origin/` we want. Instead, use
`git init --bare`, followed by `git remote add origin`. The remote
will be fetched by the usual `git fetch --all --prune` which is below.
While the `remote.origin.mirror` boolean being set is a very good
proxy for having been cloned with `--mirror`, is technically only used
when pushing into the remote[1]. What we care about is if fetches
from this remote will overwrite `refs/heads/`, or all of `refs/` --
the latter of which is most likely, from having run `git clone
--bare`.
Detect either of these fetch refspecs, and not the mirror flag. We
let the upgrade process error out if `remote.origin.fetch` is unset,
as that represents an unexpected state. We ignore failures to unset
the `remote.origin.mirror` flag, in case it is not set already.

The local `/srv/zulip.git` directory has been cloned with `--mirror`
since it was first created as a local cache in dc4b89fb08. This
made some sense at the time, since it was purely a cache of the
remote, and not a home to local branches of its own.
That changed in 3f83b843c2, when we began using `git worktree`,
which caused the `deployment-...` branches to begin being stored in
`/src/zulip.git`. This caused intermixing of local and remote
branches.
When 02582c6956 landed, the addition of `--prune` caused all but the
most recent deployment branch to be deleted upon every fetch --
leaving previous deployments with non-existent branches checked out:
```
zulip@example-prod-host:~/deployments/last$ git status
On branch deployment-2022-04-15-23-07-55
No commits yet
Changes to be committed:
(use "git rm --cached <file>..." to unstage)
new file: .browserslistrc
new file: .codecov.yml
new file: .codespellignore
new file: .editorconfig
[...snip list of every file in repo...]
```
Switch `/srv/zulip.git` to no longer be a `--mirror` cache of the
origin. We reconfigure the remote to drop `remote.origin.mirror`, and
delete all refs under `refs/pulls/` and `refs/heads/`, while
preserving any checked-out branches. `refs/pulls/`, if the remote is
the canonical upstream, contains _tens of thousands_ of refs, so
pruning those refs trims off 20% of the repository size.
Those savings require a `git gc --prune=now`, otherwise the dangling
objects are ejected from the packfiles, which would balloon the
repository up to more than three times its previous size. Repacking
the repository is reasonable, in general, after removing such a large
number of refs -- and the `--prune=now` is safe and will not lose
data, as the `--mirror` was good at ensuring that the repository could
not be used for any local state.
The refname in the upgrade process was previously resolved from the
union of local and remote refs, since they were in the same namespace.
We instead now only resolve arguments as tags, then origin branches;
this means that stale local branches will be skipped. Users who want
to deploy from local branches can use `--remote-url=.`.
Because the `scripts/lib/upgrade-zulip-from-git` file is "stage 1" and
run from the old version's code, this will take two invocations of
`upgrade-zulip-from-git` to take effect.
Fixes#21901.
This adds a --skip-restart which makes `deployments/next` in a state
where it can be restarted into, but holds off on conducting that
restart.
This requires many of the same guarantees as `--skip-tornado`, in
terms of there being no Puppet or database schema changes between the
versions. Enforce those with `--skip-restart`, and also broaden both
flags to prevent other, less common changes which nonetheless
potentially might affect the other deploy.
Because Tornado and Django use memcached as a shared cache for
checking session information, they must agree on the prefix used to
store those values.
Subsequent commits will work to ensure that it is always _safe_ to
share that cache.
These are expensive, and moving them to one explicit call early has
considerable time savings in the critical period:
```

```
Treating the restart as a start is important in reducing the critical
period during upgrades -- we call restart even when we suspect the
services are stopped, because puppet has a small possibility of
placing them in indeterminate state. However, restart orders the
workers first, then tornado/django, which prolongs the outage.
Recognize when no services are currently started, and switch to acting
like a start, not a restart, which places tornado/django first.
This hides ugly output if the services were already stopped:
```
2022-03-25 23:26:04,165 upgrade-zulip-stage-2: Stopping Zulip...

```
Being able to skip having to shell out to `supervisorctl`, if all
services are already stopped is also a significant performance
improvement.
