PEP 668 Debian 13 systems error out on 'pip install --user'. Runtime
only needs requests; pytest+requests-mock are test-only. Detect the
runtime dep first and fall back to pip only when missing.
Standalone Python tool. Hits git.churchofmalware.org public API every
12h (00:00/12:00), downloads any repo HEAD whose SHA hasn't already
been snapshotted to pCloud, with local-staging fallback when the FUSE
mount is unavailable. Matrix notification stub for when the home
server is back.
Devil's-advocate findings folded into the design:
- shutil.copy2 + size verify + unlink, not os.rename, for FUSE safety
- no pCloud daemon auto-start (no user unit; DISPLAY=:0 unreliable);
relies on Persistent timer + pending flush for recovery
- two-call API path retained because the repo list response does not
include commit.sha
Audit-driven security fixes:
- repo names whitelist-validated (^[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+$)
- urllib.parse.quote on all interpolated URL segments
- same-file no-op guard in place_into_pcloud
- existence check moved to main() so cached files don't generate
spurious notify entries
13 pytest tests passing.
