unused, dropunused: Now work in bare repositories.

Browse source 
Turned out I had already done all the work needed to support this when
unused started checking all branches.

@ -7,16 +7,12 @@ Of course, for that to work, the bare repository has to be on a system with
[[git-annex-shell]] installed. If "origin" is on GitWeb, you still can't
use git-annex to store stuff there.
Known to work ok:
It took a while, but bare repositories are now supported exactly as well
as non-bare repositories. Except for these caveats:
* `git annex move --to` and `--from`, when pointed at a bare repository.
* `git annex copy` ditto.
* `git annex drop` can check that a bare repository has a copy of data
that is being dropped.
* `git annex get` can transfer data from a bare repository.
* Most other stuff (ie, init, describe, trust, etc.)
There are a few caveats to keep in mind when using bare repositories:
* A few subcommands, like `unused` cannot be run in a bare repository.
Those subcommands will refuse to do anything.
* `git annex fsck` works in a bare repository, but does not display
warnings about insufficient
[[copies]]. To get those warnings, just run it in one of the non-bare
checkouts.
* `git annex unused` in a bare repository only knows about keys used in
branches that have been pushed to the bare repository. So use it with care..
