Added annex.commitmessage config that can specify a commit message for the
git-annex branch instead of the usual "update".

addurl: When security configuration prevents downloads with youtube-dl,
still check if the url is one that it supports, and fail downloading it,
instead of downloading the raw web page.
Security fix! Allowing any schemes, particularly file: and
possibly others like scp: allowed file exfiltration by anyone who had
write access to the git repository, since they could add an annexed file
using such an url, or using an url that redirected to such an url,
and wait for the victim to get it into their repository and send them a copy.
* Added annex.security.allowed-url-schemes setting, which defaults
to only allowing http and https URLs. Note especially that file:/
is no longer enabled by default.
* Removed annex.web-download-command, since its interface does not allow
supporting annex.security.allowed-url-schemes across redirects.
If you used this setting, you may want to instead use annex.web-options
to pass options to curl.
With annex.web-download-command removed, nearly all url accesses in
git-annex are made via Utility.Url via http-client or curl. http-client
only supports http and https, so no problem there.
(Disabling one and not the other is not implemented.)
Used curl --proto to limit the allowed url schemes.
Note that this will cause git annex fsck --from web to mark files using
a disallowed url scheme as not being present in the web. That seems
acceptable; fsck --from web also does that when a web server is not available.
youtube-dl already disabled file: itself (probably for similar
reasons). The scheme check was also added to youtube-dl urls for
completeness, although that check won't catch any redirects it might
follow. But youtube-dl goes off and does its own thing with other
protocols anyway, so that's fine.
Special remotes that support other domain-specific url schemes are not
affected by this change. In the bittorrent remote, aria2c can still
download magnet: links. The download of the .torrent file is
otherwise now limited by annex.security.allowed-url-schemes.
This does not address any external special remotes that might download
an url themselves. Current thinking is all external special remotes will
need to be audited for this problem, although many of them will use
http libraries that only support http and not curl's menagarie.
The related problem of accessing private localhost and LAN urls is not
addressed by this commit.

In keyUrls, the GitConfig is used only by annexLocations
to support configured Differences. Since such configurations affect all
clones of a repository, the local repo's GitConfig must have the same
information as the remote's GitConfig would have. So, used getGitConfig
to get the local GitConfig, which is cached and so available cheaply.
That actually fixed a bug noone had ever noticed: keyUrls is
used for remotes accessed over http. The full git config of such a
remote is normally not available, so the remoteGitConfig that keyUrls
used would not have the necessary information in it.
In copyFromRemoteCheap', it uses gitAnnexLocation,
which does need the GitConfig of the remote repo itself in order to
check if it's crippled, supports symlinks, etc. So, made the
State include that GitConfig, cached. The use of gitAnnexLocation is
within a (not $ Git.repoIsUrl repo) guard, so it's local, and so
its git config will always be read and available.
(Note that gitAnnexLocation in turn calls annexLocations, so the
Differences config it uses in this case comes from the remote repo's
GitConfig and not from the local repo's GitConfig. As explained above
this is ok since they must have the same value.)
Not very happy with this mess of different GitConfigs not type-safe and
some read only sometimes etc. Very hairy. Think I got it this change
right. Test suite passes..

Unfortunately one more use remains..
This should be just as fast as the other method. The remote's Git.Repo
has already had its config read, so Annex.new's call to Git.Config.read
is a noop.

The old git-annex Android app is now deprecated in favor of running
git-annex in termux. I suspect all or nearly all of these no longer apply.

Fix regression in last release that crashes when using --all or running
git-annex in a bare repository. May have also affected git-annex unused and
git-annex info.
Reversed the order of the (++) in Annex.Branch.files so --all will stream
lazily still when there are not a bunch of uncommitted journal files.
Added a todo to maybe improve this later.

Added some tweaks to make git-annex work in termux on Android. The regular
arm standalone tarball now works in termux.
I guess the test for "$base/bin/git" is not really necessary, since it
tests for git-annex. Since that gets deleted on android, removed that test.
These are pretty hackish hacks, especially adding it to PATH. The goal is
to make it work well enough out of the box on Android.

* For url downloads, git-annex now defaults to using a http library,
rather than wget or curl. But, if annex.web-options is set, it will
use curl. To use the .netrc file, run:
git config annex.web-options --netrc
* git-annex no longer uses wget (and wget is no longer shipped with
git-annex builds).
Note that curl is always run in silent mode, since the new API for
download has a MeterUpdate and doesn't make way for curl progress
output. It might be worth writing a parser for curl's progress output
to update the meter when using it, but I didn't bother with this edge
case for now.

Remote.S3 and Remote.Helper.Http both had similar code to sink a
http-conduit Response to a file; refactor out sinkResponseFile.
downloadC downloads an url to a file using http-conduit, and supports
resuming. Falls back to curl to handle urls that http-conduit does not
support. This is not used yet, but the goal is to replace download with
it.
git-annex.cabal: conduit-extra was not actually used for a long time,
remove the dep. conduit moves into the main dependency list, but since
http-conduit was already in there, and it depends on conduit, that's not
really adding a new build dep.

Enable HTTP connection reuse across multiple files, when git-annex
uses http-conduit. Before, a new Manager was created each time
Utility.Url used it. Now, a single Manager gets created the first time,
so connections are reused.
Doesn't help when external programs are used for url download,
but does speed up addurl --fast, fsck --from web, etc.
Testing fsck --fast --from web with 3 files, over high-latency
satellite internet, it sped up from 19.37s to 14.96s.

git annex testremote passes.
exportree not implemented yet, although the documentation talks about it,

The adb push/pull progress is displayed for now; it would be better
to consume it and use it to update the git-annex progress bar.

There are a lot of different variants and sizes, I suppose we might as well
export all the common ones.

On Debian, Blake2bp_512 is buggy, so I have omitted it for now.

When resuming a download and not using a rolling checksummer like rsync,
the partial file we start with might contain garbage, in the case where a
file changed as it was being downloaded. So, disabling verification on
resumes risked a bad object being put into the annex.
Even downloads with rsync are currently affected. It didn't seem worth the
added complexity to special case those to prevent verification, especially
since git-annex is using rsync less often now.
This commit was sponsored by Brock Spratlen on Patreon.
P2P protocol version 1 adds VALID|INVALID after DATA; INVALID means the
file was detected to change content while it was being sent and so we
may not have received the valid content of the file.
Added new MustVerify constructor for Verification, which forces
verification even when annex.verify=false etc. This is used when INVALID
and in protocol version 0.
As well as changing git-annex-shell p2psdio, this makes git-annex tor
remotes always force verification, since they don't yet use protocol
version 1. Previously, annex.verify=false could skip verification when
using tor remotes, and let bad data into the repository.

When the assistant detects a network change, it
stops using old git-annex transferkeys processes.
So, no problem that old git-annex-shell p2pstdio
connections are cached; they won't be reused after
network change.
When git-annex-shell p2pstdio fails with 255, it's because the ssh
server is not reachable. Avoid running the fallback action in this case,
since it would just try a second time to connect, and presumably fail.
Note that the closed P2PSshConnection will not be stored in the pool,
so the next request tries again to connect. This is just the right
behavior; when the remote becomes reachable again, the same git-annex
process will start using it.

Unfortunately ReceiveMessage didn't handle unknown messages the way it
was documented to; client sending VERSION would cause the server to
return an ERROR and hang up. Fixed that, but old releases of git-annex
use the P2P protocol for tor and will still have that behavior.
So, version is not negotiated for Remote.P2P connections, only for
Remote.Git connections, which will support VERSION from their first
release. There will need to be a later flag day to change Remote.P2P;
left a commented out line that is the only thing that will need to be
changed then.
Version 1 of the P2P protocol is not implemented yet, but updated
the docs for the DATA change that will be allowed by that version.

Note that, due to not using rsync to transfer files to ssh remotes
any longer, permissions and other file metadata of annexed files
will no longer be preserved when copying them to ssh remotes.
Other remotes never supported preserving that information, so
this is not considered a regression. Added NEWS item about this.
Another significant side effect of this is that, even when rsync is run to
retrieve a file, its progress display will no longer be shown, and
instead the native git-annex progress display will appear. It would be
possible to use the rsync process display when rsync is used (old
git-annex-shell and also retrieval from a local repository), but it
would have complicated the code unncessarily, and been inconsistent
behavior.
(I'd been thinking for a while about eliminating the rsync progress
display, since it's got some annoying verbosities, including display of
the key and the "(xfr#1, to-chk=0/1)" bit and was already somewhat
inconsistent.)
retrieveKeyFileCheap still uses rsync, since that ensures that it gets
the actual file content from the remote. Using the P2P protocol would
use the local content, as long as the local and remote size are the
same.

Not yet used for everything else, but this is enough to
verify that it works, and do some benchmarking.
Some bugfixes included, which got it working. Also fallback to old
actions has been verified to work correctly.
Benchmarked dropping one thousand files from a ssh remote on localhost.
Using the old git-annex 40.867 seconds.
With the P2P protocol 9.905 seconds!

Not yet used by git-annex, but this will allow faster transfers etc than
using individual ssh connections and rsync.
Not called git-annex-shell p2p, because git-annex p2p does something
else and I don't want two subcommands with the same name between the two
for sanity reasons.

Renaming is not supported; it might be possible to use --fuzzy to get rsync
to notice the file is being renamed, but that is a bit ..fuzzy.
On the other hand, interrupted transfers of an exported file are resumed,
since rsync is great at that. Had to adjust the exporttree docs, which
said interrupted transfers would restart.
Note that remove no longer makes the empty directory dummy, instead
sending the top-level empty directory. This works just as well and I
noticed the dummy was unncessary when refactoring it into removeGeneric.
Verified that behavior of remove is not changed, and git annex
testremote does pass.

A top-level .noannex file will prevent git-annex init from being used in a
repository. This is useful for repositories that have a policy reason not
to use git-annex. The content of the file will be displayed to the user who
tries to run git-annex init.
This also affects git annex reinit and initialization via the webapp.
It does not affect automatic inits, when there's a sibling git-annex branch
already.

This will be used in youtube-dl integration, to tell when a html page has
been downloaded by addurl, in which case it is worth running youtube-dl
to see if it can extract media from it.
tagsoup is an almost free dependency, because yesod depends on it.
So, this only really adds a dep when git-annex is built without the
webapp.
I'd like this to as closely as possible match how browsers decide if a
page is html or not. Unfortunately, that is fairly heuristic, in order
to support malformed html. And, we don't want to falsely detect
something as html just because it has something that looks like a html
tag embedded somewhere in it. Probably any major video hosting site is
going to be serving html documents that at least start with a <html>
tag, so requiring that or a DOCTYPE should be good enough.

This is similar to the pusher thread, but a separate thread because git
pushes can be done in parallel with exports, and updating a big export
should not prevent other git pushes going out in the meantime.
The exportThread only runs at most every 30 seconds, since updating an
export is more expensive than pushing. This may need to be tuned.
Added a separate channel for export commits; the committer records a
commit in that channel.
Also, reconnectRemotes records a dummy commit, to make the exporter
thread wake up and make sure all exports are up-to-date. So,
connecting a drive with a directory special remote export will
immediately update it, and getting online will automatically
update S3 and WebDAV exports.
The transfer queue is not involved in exports. Instead, failed
exports are retried much like failed pushes.

The bug occurred when closeDb was not called, and garbage collection of

There does not seem to be a use case for supporting that, and it would

Apparently box.com renaming is just buggy. I tried a couple of fixes:
* In case the http Manager was opening multiple connections and reaching
different backend servers, I tried limiting the number of connections
to 1. Didn't help.
* To make sure it was not a http connection reuse problem, I tried
rewriting how exportAction works, so that the same http connection
is clearly open. Didn't help.
So, disable renaming of exports for box.com. It would be good to test it
with some other webdav server.

Removal works, only derives are a potential issue, so allow removing
with a warning. This way, unexporting a file works, and behavior is

It opens a http connection per file exported, but then so does git

the munging having confusing results. Instead, export of files not

Don't allow "exporttree=yes" to be set when the special remote
does not support exports. That would be confusing since the user would
set up a special remote for exports, but `git annex export` to it would
later fail.

The export database has writes made to it and then expects to read back
the same data immediately. But, the way that Database.Handle does
writes, in order to support multiple writers, makes that not work, due
to caching issues. This resulted in export re-uploading files it had
already successfully renamed into place.
Fixed by allowing databases to be opened in MultiWriter or SingleWriter
mode. The export database only needs to support a single writer; it does
not make sense for multiple exports to run at the same time to the same
special remote.
All other databases still use MultiWriter mode. And by inspection,
nothing else in git-annex seems to be relying on being able to
immediately query for changes that were just written to the database.

Straightforward enough, except for the needed belt-and-suspenders sanity
checks to avoid foot shooting due to exports not being key/value stores.
* Even when annex.verify=false, always verify from exports.
* Only get files from exports that use a backend that supports
checksum verification.
* Never trust exports, even if the user says to, because then
`git annex drop` would drop content if the export seemed to contain
a copy.

Removed uncorrect UniqueKey key in db schema; a key can appear multiple
times with different files.
The database has to be flushed after each removal. But when adding files
to the export, lots of changes are able to be queued up w/o flushing.
So it's still fairly efficient.
If large removals of files from exports are too slow, an alternative
would be to make two passes over the diff, one pass queueing deletions
from the database, then a flush and the a second pass updating the
location log. But that would use more memory, and need to look up
exportKey twice per removed file, so I've avoided such optimisation yet.

* Only export to remotes that were initialized to support it.
* Prevent storing key/value on export remotes.
* Prevent enabling exporttree=yes and encryption in the same remote.
SetupStage Enable was changed to take the old RemoteConfig.
This allowed only setting exporttree when initially setting up a
