* Is the smudge filter called at any other time? Seems unlikely but then
there could be situations with a detached work tree or such.
* Does git call any useful hooks when removing a file from the work tree,
or converting it to not be annexed?
or converting it to not be annexed, or for `git mv` of an annexed file?
No!
From this analysis, any file map generated by the smudge/clean filters
is necessary potentially innaccurate. It may list deleted files.
It may or may not reflect current unstaged changes from the work tree.
Follows that any use of the file map needs to verify the info from it,
and throw out bad cached info (updating the map to match reality).
