tips/automatically_adding_metadata/pre-commit-annex: Fix to not silently
skip filenames containing non-ascii characters.
git diff-index defaults to munging non-ascii characters. Using -z makes
it not do that, and then we just change the nulls to newlines.

Added annex.merge-annex-branches config setting which can be used to
disable automatic merge of git-annex branches.
I wonder if git-annex merge/sync/assistant should disable this
setting? Not sure yet, so have not done so. May be that users will not set
it in git config, but pass it via -c to commands that need it.
Checking the config setting adds a very small overhead, but it's
only checked once per command so should be insignificant.

Repositories that are upgraded from before that version to this
one will not break, but will just not see the benefit of the mergedrefs log
speeding things up, until one new ref gets merged in.
Added remote.<name>.annex-checkuuid config, which can be set to false to
disable the default checking of the uuid of remotes that point to
directories. This can be useful to avoid unncessary drive spin-ups and
automounting.
Note that the UUID check is still done before writing to the repository,
to avoid writing to the wrong repository if it got relocated. Check is
also done before checkPresent to avoid getting confused about what is in
which repo. This is effectively the same as the use of git-annex-shell
with a uuid to check that the remote repository is the expected one.
Did not bother with the check for retrieveKeyFile because it doesn't
matter if the wrong repo is used then.

And for tab completion, by not unnessessarily statting paths to remotes,
which used to cause eg, spin-up of removable drives.
Got rid of the remotes member of Git.Repo. This was a bit painful.
Remote.Git modifies the list of remotes as it reads their configs,
so still need a persistent list of remotes. So, put it in as
Annex.gitremotes. It's only populated by getGitRemotes, so commands
like examinekey that don't care about remotes won't do so.

Fourth or fifth try at this and finally found a way to make it work.
Absurd amount of busy-work forced on me by change in cabal's behavior.
Split up Utility modules that need posix stuff out of ones used by
Setup. Various other hacks around inability for Setup to use anything
that ifdefs a use of unix.
Probably lost a full day of my life to this.
This is how build systems make their users hate them. Just saying.
addurl: When the file youtube-dl will download is already an annexed file,
don't download it again and fail to overwrite it, instead just do nothing,
like it used to when quvi was used.

This reverts commit 51228c2306.
No, still doesn't work when built with cabal. It did with stack; stack
must somehow make the unix package implicitly available.
With cabal, System.Posix.Process and System.Posix.Env are both missing.
Seems I had all the work in past commits to make this build, at least on
linux. I'm actually surprised it does, without a unix dep, Utility.Env
still builds ok somehow despite using System.Posix.Env.
