An --unlock-present branch reverses back to a branch where
all files that get modified or renamed become locked, even if they were
originally unlocked. This is the same that reversing a --unlock branch
works, and the new name makes that commonality more clear.
Like --hide-missing the branch does not get updated when content
availability changes.
Seems to basically work, but sync does not update it yet.
Also, when a file is present and so unlocked, git mv followed by
git-annex sync results in the basis branch being updated to contain the
file with the new name, unlocked. This seems different than what
happens in an adjusted unlocked branch, where the commit propigates back
locked. Probably the reverse adjustment code needs to be improved to
handle this case.
Straightforward, except for the issue of how to reverse LockAdjustment.
With --unlock, a commit that modifies/adds unlocked files gets reverse
adjusted to use locked files. That's fairly reasonable, I think.
But reversing --lock by unlocking all modified files feels wrong. Maybe
that's just because repositories typically seem to still have mostly
locked files in them (unless one is in an adjusted unlocked branch of
course!)
It may be that eventually how to reverse both will need to be configurable,
I don't know.
Both Command.Sync and Annex.Ingest had their own versions of this.
The one in Annex.Ingest used Git.Branch.currentUnsafe, but does not seem
to need it. That is only checking to see if it's in an adjusted unlocked
branch, and when in an adjusted branch, the branch does in fact exist,
so the added check that Git.Branch.current does is fine.
