* Python3 fixes to copy, file, and stat so that the connection integration tests can be run
* Forgot to audit the helper functions as well.
* Fix dest to refledt b_dest (found by @mattclay)
On python3, we want to use the surrogateescape error handler if
available for filesystem paths and the like. On python2, have to use
strict in these circumstances. Use the new error strategy for to_text,
to_bytes, and to_native that allows this.
Lineinfile deals heavily with Unic text files. Makes some sense to deal
with it all as byte strings. So there is a lot of work done here to
show that we're dealing with byte strings throughout.
* Improve the correct handling of gtar and unzip options
Add the option --show-transformed-names when extra_opts is being used
Ignore bogus warnings related to empty filenames
Properly quote _and_ escape filenames for unzip command
Rewrite gtar options and provide run_command with array, not string
This fixes#2480 and #4109.
* Make check-mode work for zip-files
Check-mode was disabled for zip-files since gtar did not support it.
This change enables check-mode support for zip-files, but does skip the task when used with gtar.
(Best of both worlds)
Also remove unused compress_mode variable.
This replaces PR #4401, the changes overlap somewhat so I merged them
* FreeBSD do not support --omit-header and --absolute-names
* The option for following symlink wth getfacl is different on FreeBSD
* ZFS on Freebsd use nfsv4 acls, who use a slightly different syntax
* FreeBSD do not have a --test flag, so always return 'True'
* FreeBSD do not have the --omit-headers options, so we have to filter by ourself
* Mark Freebsd as working for the acl module
When you try to remote unarchive files with the option copy=no the code always fail, as evidenced in issue #4202. That happens because the conditional to check "if remote_src=no or copy=yes" will always be true since the default value of them is remote_src=no and copy=yes.
My modification is only to change the condition from or to and, that way only if both the vars stay with the default value will be true, otherwise you can unarchive remote files.
A capital "S" appears when the the setuid or setgid bit are set but have no effect. Likewise, a capital "T" appears when the sticky bit is set but it has no effect.
* Revert PR #3575 since it causes problems related to exclude patterns
By using a different method for getting archive filelists, and extracting we introduced new problems related to excluding based on gtar patterns.
As a result files that would be excluded by gtar, would still be in the filelist. Implementing our own gtar compatible pattern exclusion mechanism is near to impossible (believe me, we looked at it...). The best way is to look at the original problem and deal with that, and ensure that extraction and filelists are done with the exact same tool and exact same options.
The solution is to decode the octal unicode representation in gtar's output back to unicode. Since gtar has no problem extracting these files in LANG=C, we simply has to compensate for it.
This reverts #3575 and fixes#11348.
* Implement codecs.escape_decode() instead of decode("string_escape") for python3
* A few more sanity checks for detecting unzip output that's not a file entry
Also note that there's a rounding error somewhere in the mtime
comparison code.
* Fix reference to sub-array
The example for delete=yes does not specify recursive although it is
required. In addition, the wording for the delete option is confusing
about from where files are really deleted. This should clarify that.
* Improve the unzip output scraping
Ensure we capture the complete file (also when it includes spaces).
Drop lines that do not conform (in length) to what we expect (e.g. header/footer).
This fixes#3813
* Fix how split() works
Fallback to unzip if zipfile fails and hope that unzip can deal with it
(sites have an easier time upgrading the unzip utility than all of
python).

* Detection of handler depends on the wrong handler failing to list the contents of the tarfile.
Use explicit compression types with the python tarfile library to
achieve that.
* bytearray isn't available in python2.4
* unarchive: use Python's tarfile module for tar listing
fixes https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/11348
Depending on the current active locale, `tar`'s file listing can end up
spitting backslash-escaped characters. Unfortunately, when that happens,
we end up with double-escaped backslashes, giving us a wrong path,
making our action fail.
We could try un-double-escaping our paths, but that would be complicated
and, I think, error-prone. The easiest way forward seemed to simply use
the `tarfile` module.
Why use it only for listing? Because the `unarchive` option also
supports the `extra_opts` option, and that supporting this would require
us to mimick `tar`'s interface.
For listing files, however, I don't think that the loss of `extra_opts`
support causes problems (well, I hope so).
* unarchive: re-add xz decompression support
Following previous change to use Python's `tarfile` module for tar file
listing, we lost `xz` decompression support. This commits re-add it by
adding a special case in `TarXzArchive` that pre-decompresses the source
file.
