I don't think this actually fixes any buggy behavior in git-annex, I
just noticed that using treeItemToLsTreeItem and then serializing it
resulted in something starting with "160000 blob" rather than
"160000 commit"
Git.Remote.parseRemoteLocation had a hack to handle URIs that contained
characters like spaces, which is something git unfortunately allows
despite not being a valid URI. However, that hack looked for "//" to
guess something was an URI, and these gcrypt URIs, being to a local
path, don't contain that. So instead escape all illegal characters and
check if the resulting thing is an URI.
And that was already done by Git.Construct.fromUrl, so
internally the gcrypt URI with a space looks like "gcrypt::foo%20bar"
and that needs to be de-escaped when converting back from URI to local
repo path.
This change might also allow a few other almost-valid URIs to be handled
as URIs by git-annex. None that contain "//" will change, and any
behavior change should result in git-annex doing closer to a right thing
than it did before, probably.

When a git remote is configured with an absolute path, use that path,
rather than making it relative. If it's configured with a relative path,
use that.
Git.Construct.fromPath changed to preserve the path as-is,
rather than making it absolute. And Annex.new changed to not
convert the path to relative. Instead, Git.CurrentRepo.get
generates a relative path.
A few things that used fromAbsPath unncessarily were changed in passing to
use fromPath instead. I'm seeing fromAbsPath as a security check,
while before it was being used in some cases when the path was
known absolute already. It may be that fromAbsPath is not really needed,
but only git-annex-shell uses it now, and I'm not 100% sure that there's
not some input that would cause a relative path to be used, opening a
security hole, without the security check. So left it as-is.
Test suite passes and strace shows the configured remote url is used
unchanged in the path into it. I can't be 100% sure there's not some code
somewhere that takes an absolute path to the repo and converts it to
relative and uses it, but it seems pretty unlikely that the code paths used
for a git remote would call such code. One place I know of is gitAnnexLink,
but I'm pretty sure that git remotes never deal with annex symlinks. If
that did get called, it generates a path relative to cwd, which would have
been wrong before this change as well, when operating on a remote.
Fixed that, and made parserLsTree accept the space as well as tab.
Fixes a reversion that made import of a tree from a special remote result in
a merge that deleted files that were not preferred content of that special
remote.
After the last commit, it was able to throw errors just due to an
unparseable url. This avoids needing to worry about that, as long
as the call site has already checked that it has a parseable url.
Including the non-standard URI form that git-remote-gcrypt uses for rsync.
Eg, "ook://foo:bar" cannot be parsed because "bar" is not a valid port
number. But git could have a remote with that, it would try to run
git-remote-ook to handle it. So, git-annex has to allow for such things,
rather than crashing.

In addition to regular file deletions, the removefiles argument passed
to adjustTree may contain removed submodules. When making the new
tree, filter these out in the same way that is done for regular files
so that the deletion is propagated.
This is conceptually very simple, just making a 1 that was hard coded be
exposed as a config option. The hard part was plumbing all that, and
dealing with complexities like reading it from git attributes at the
same time that numcopies is read.
Behavior change: When numcopies is set to 0, git-annex used to drop
content without requiring any copies. Now to get that (highly unsafe)
behavior, mincopies also needs to be set to 0. It seemed better to
remove that edge case, than complicate mincopies by ignoring it when
numcopies is 0.

I don't think this affected git-annex currently, but if the same command
was queued twice with different params, one set of params was thrown
away, and the files going with those were run with the other set of
params.
This makes sync a lot faster in the common case where there's no new
backup.
There's still room for it to be faster. Currently the old imported tree
has to be traversed, to generate the ImportableContents. Which then
gets turned around to generate the new imported tree, which is
identical. So, it would be possible to just return a "no new imports",
or an ImportableContents that has a way to graft in a tree. The latter
is probably too far to go to optimise this, unless other things need it.
The former might be worth it, but it's already pretty fast, since git
ls-tree is pretty fast.
9cb250f7be got the ones in RawFilePath,
but there were others that used the one from unix-compat, which fails at
runtime on windows. To avoid this,

I'm not sure if git documents it aside from 0 and 1, but any integer
can be interpreted as a bool by it. Doing the same in git-annex is good
for consistency. Also, I am planning a config that starts out as a
numeric range, but will later transition to a simple bool (hopefully),
which this interpretation supports well.
All properties changed to use them, except for
prop_encode_c_decode_c_roundtrip, which already filtered to ascii
for other reasons.
A few modules had to be split out, because Setup does not build-depend
on QuickCheck.
nukeFile replaced with removeWhenExistsWith removeLink, which allows
using RawFilePath. Utility.Directory cannot use RawFilePath since setup
does not depend on posix.

This reverts commit c142696c58.
It turns out it was not needed; 681313dfd4
fixed up the git dir, so setting cwd to it works ok.
But worst, this commit broke the test suite massively. I don't understand how.
git-annex get was failing. Very weirdly, git-annex find in a fresh
clone of an annex repo, during autoinit, was displaying a side message
-- but side messages are disabled when running find.
This fixes the bug.
Note, it's only done when GIT_DIR is set. When it's not set,
Git.Construct already handled it. This is why it was only noticed with this
git submodule command.

If .git is a gitlink file, setting cwd to it will fail, but --git-dir
will succeed. And this is the only place where it sets cwd when running
git, everywhere else already uses --git-dir.
Note that, git-annex's submodule fixup code usually converts gitlink
files to symlinks, so this wasn't usually problem. Still, worth fixing.

This was the last one marked as a zombie. There might be others I don't
know about, but except for in the hypothetical case of a thread dying
due to an async exception before it can wait on a process it started, I
don't know of any.
It would probably be safe to remove the reapZombies now, but let's wait
and so that in its own commit in case it turns out to cause problems.

Eliminate a zombie that was only cleaned up by the later zombie cleanup
code.
This is still not ideal, it would be cleaner if it used conduit or
something, and if the thread gets killed before waiting, it won't stop
the process.
Only remaining zombies are in CmdLine.Seek
This is only needed for the i386ancient build, so build in the git
version git-annex is built with, assuming git won't be upgraded, or if
it is, they just won't get the speedup of --buffer
This was a bit disappointing, I was hoping for a 2x speedup. But, I think
the metadata lookup is wasting a lot of time and also needs to be made to
stream.
The changes to catObjectStreamLsTree were benchmarked to not also speed
up --all around 3% more. Seems I managed to make it polymorphic after all.
