The /Schedule/set-time-scale/format/json was being hit every time a new calendar page was displayed. The isn't good for performance reasons and also makes race conditions like #210 much more likely.
With this change the preference is only updated on the server when the GUI state changes because the user clicked on one of the "Day", "Week", or "Month" buttons.
This does not fix the locking issue completely, but it should help because the cc_prefs time-scale row in the database will get locked much less often. After applying this I wasn't able to reproduce #210 any more on an install with an extensive schedule.
The script was logging "Script failed with status 127". It seems that this is due to release.sh not being executable and not being referenced with a path starting with ./.
* [x] explain semver since this upgrade cases are when this applies
* [x] links to different parts of manual
* [x] move backup section to the top
* [x] add "real" git pull example
* [x] rename install script to plain ./install
* [x] remove very old monit upgrade help
This gets the mime type using file-magic in a most minimal way. Since the python bindings have been available as a distro package for quite a while it is written in a way so it should also run on pre pypi installs of file-magic. This means not being able to use nice things like magic.detect_from_filename due to the fact that they where added rather recently (with recently being 2 years ago).
As the mime type is only used to check for wav files that mutagen can't handle it only reads the mime type and ignores the charset and other attributes that magic can find.
Due to the fact that file-magic is not properly unicode safe I'm checking the file based on it's first 2048 bytes as per <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/34836792/python-magic-cant-identify-unicode-filename#comment57418632_34838355>. This is not an issue since wav files need to start with a wav header by definition anyway.
I tested this sucessfully on both CentOS and Debian with files containing Unicode in their names.
