Product / UI / CLI / docs rebrand. Internal package, repo, and
on-disk dir names stay 'cloud_sync' / 'cloud-sync' / '.cloud-sync/'
to avoid breaking existing installs; a future commit can do the
file-system rename when the cost is worth paying.
User-facing changes:
CLI prog name: cloud-sync -> instance-sync
CLI description: cloud-svc URL -> Timemachine Network endpoint
Dialog title: CLOUD SYNC -> INSTANCE SYNC
Dialog title: CLOUD CONFLICT -> INSTANCE CONFLICT
Dialog title: CONNECT CLOUD SAVE -> CONNECT TO THE NETWORK
Card label: Cloud Save -> Remote Save
Skip button: Skip cloud sync -> Skip instance sync
Body copy: 'the cloud' -> 'the Timemachine Network'
Window titles: Cloud sync — ... -> Instance sync — ...
Log prefix: cloud-sync: -> instance-sync:
Error prose: 'cloud-sync token' -> 'instance-sync token'
Backend changes:
restic --host tag: cloud-sync -> instance-sync
State.host_tag dflt: cloud-sync -> instance-sync
(Existing snapshots with the old tag still pull fine; we use 'latest'.)
Drop tkinter fallback: ui.py now offers Qt OR Headless. tkinter is
unnecessary given we already maintain Qt + headless; one less code
path to keep styled, smaller pyz. make_progress() picks Qt first,
falls through to HeadlessProgress on ImportError with a stderr hint
to 'pip install PySide6'.
README: rebrand title + prose; note repo/dir rename deferred; call
out the PySide6 install step. Conflict/login dialogs are now Qt-only;
without Qt, conflict aborts (defensive) and login tells the user to
paste the token manually.
52 tests green; no test-file label changes needed since they only
exercise internal APIs.
cloud-sync now ships a real Qt UI alongside the tkinter fallback.
Architecture:
- HeadlessProgress: --no-gui path, plain stdout
- TkProgressWindow: stdlib fallback when Qt isn't installed
- QtProgressWindow: preferred path; supports both PySide6 and PyQt6
(interchangeable APIs for our subset)
The factory in ui.py picks Qt → tkinter → headless. Tk stays so the
zipapp still works on bare Python with no extras.
Threading: QApplication runs on the main thread (started by run_with
via QDialog.exec). The restic worker runs on a daemon threading.Thread.
Cross-thread UI updates go via a Signal on a bridge QObject so Qt
auto-marshals them onto the main thread via a queued connection.
Cancellation: WM close + Cancel button both set a flag. sync.pull/push
pass ui.is_cancelled as restic.run's cancel_check; the subprocess gets
killed and returns -1 → exit 1.
Theme: Fusion style + Prism's dark palette (RGB values copied as facts
from PrismLauncher's DarkTheme.cpp). Override with PRISM_THEME=off.
Pyz size went 20 KB → 36 KB (added ui.py + ui_qt.py).
33 tests still green.
