Solves the issue with preferred content expressions and dropping that
I mentioned yesterday. My solution was to add a parameter to specify a set
of repositories where content should be assumed not to be present. When
deciding whether to drop, it can put the current repository in, and then
if the expression fails to match, the content can be dropped.
Using yesterday's example "(not copies=trusted:2) and (not in=usbdrive)",
when the local repo is one of the 2 trusted copies, the drop check will
see only 1 trusted copy, so the expression matches, and so the content will
not be dropped.
I'm down to 9 places in the code that can produce unwaited for zombies.
Most of these are pretty innocuous, at least for now, are only
used in short-running commands, or commands that run a set of
actions and explicitly reap zombies after each one.
The one from Annex.Branch.files could be trouble later,
since both Command.Fsck and Command.Unused can trigger it,
and the assistant will be doing those eventally. Ditto the one in
Git.LsTree.lsTree, which Command.Unused uses.
The only ones currently affecting the assistant though, are
in Git.LsFiles. Several threads use several of those.
(And yeah, using pipes or ResourceT would be a less ad-hoc approach,
but I don't really feel like ripping my entire code base apart right
now to change a foundation monad. Maybe one of these days..)
Nearly everything that's reading from git is operating on a small
amount of output and has been switched to use that. Only pipeNullSplit
stuff continues using the lazy version that yields zombies.
