We now do what this comment says, but is this comment actually correct?

I don't see anything previously where we checked for is_mine_id(user_id) in the downstream functions here. It feels like we happily copied everyone over.

It makes sense to only copy over the push rules for the local users (transfer_room_state_on_room_upgrade -> copy_user_state_on_room_upgrade -> copy_push_rules_from_room_to_room_for_user)

I'm not sure about transfer_room_state_on_room_upgrade -> copy_user_state_on_room_upgrade -> copy_room_tags_and_direct_to_room though.

I'm fairly sure account data (and hence m.direct data) and room tags can only be set for local users.
ie. we used to copy over nothing for remote users, so this change looks alright.

Woot! Good news to move this forward 🚆

I trust you but can you link where you see this constraint? It's not immediately obvious to me trying to follow some functions down.

There's no check in the copying method or its callees. It's just not possible for us to insert account data and room tags for remote users into the database.

users = await self.store.get_users_in_room(old_room_id)
await self.copy_user_state_on_room_upgrade(old_room_id, room_id, users)
local_users = await self.store.get_local_users_in_room(old_room_id)
await self.copy_user_state_on_room_upgrade(old_room_id, room_id, local_users)

# Add new room to the room directory if the old room was there
# Remove old room from the room directory
