avoid using removePathForcibly everywhere, it is unsafe
If the temp directory can somehow contain a hard link, it changes the
mode, which affects all other hard linked files. So, it's too unsafe
to use everywhere in git-annex, since hard links are possible in
multiple ways and it would be very hard to prove that every place that
uses a temp directory cannot possibly put a hard link in it.
Added a call to removeDirectoryForCleanup to test_crypto, which will
fix the problem that commit 17b20a2450
was intending to fix, with a much smaller hammer.

At first I thought this was rsync modifying the permissions of the source file.
|
||||
|
||||
But no... [[!commit 17b20a24502aee3bfc5683146c3899a233295aea]]
|
||||
changed how temp directories get cleaned up. removePathForcibly
|
||||
is actually changing the permissions of the object file hard link
|
||||
in the rsynctmp directory when deleting that directory. Which also
|
||||
changes the permissions of the object file.
|
||||
|
||||
Filed a bug on removePathForcibly. <https://github.com/haskell/directory/issues/135>
|
||||
|
||||
I think this makes removePathForcibly unsuitable for general purpose
|
||||
use in git-annex, because there are just too many ways for a hard link
|
||||
to enter the picture. (Eg annex.thin, or even a user making their own
|
||||
hard link that git-annex does not know about.)
|
||||
|
||||
So, I've reverted that commit, and put in a more
|
||||
targeted fix for the problem it was addressing.
