Unfortunately, this caused breakage on Windows, and possibly elsewhere,
because parentDir and takeDirectory do not behave the same when there is a
trailing directory separator.
parentDir is less safe than takeDirectory, especially when working
with relative FilePaths. It's really only useful in loops that
want to terminate at /

Didn't know that this library existed!
This includes making git-annex not re-exec itself on start on windows, and
making the test suite on Windows run tests without forking.
This fixes all instances of " \t" in the code base. Most common case
seems to be after a "where" line; probably vim copied the two space layout
of that line.
Done as a background task while listening to episode 2 of the Type Theory
podcast.
This fixed one bug where it needed to be and wasn't (in Assistant.Unused).
And also found one place where lockContent was used unnecessarily (by
drop --from remote).
A few other places like uninit probably don't really need to lockContent,
but it doesn't hurt to do call it anyway.

Someone reported:
gpg: WARNING: unsafe permissions on homedir `/var/folders/m6/zkd11n111m38ff37zbtgq0lr0000gp/T/git-annex-gpg.tmp.0'
Just a warning, but let's fix it anyway. Preumably the user has one of the
many insane and delightful umasks users sometimes use to shoot themselves
in their feet.
This works around horribleness in the Mavericks cpp, which falls over on
the #if when configure is running. Moving it avoids the file being built at
that point.
But it's also a location that makes sense..
When an automatic upgrade completes, or when the user clicks on the upgrade
button in one webapp, but also has it open in another browser window/tab,
we have a problem: The current web server is going to stop running in
minutes, but there is no way to send a redirect to the web browser to the
new url.
To solve this, used long polling, so the webapp is always listening for
urls it should redirect to. This allows globally redirecting every open
webapp. Works great! Tested with 2 web browsers with 2 tabs each.
May be useful for other purposes later too, dunno.
The overhead is 2 http requests per page load in the webapp. Due to yesod's
speed, this does not seem to noticibly delay it. Only 1 of the requests
could possibly block the page load, the other is async.
Made alerts be able to have multiple buttons, so the alerts about upgrading
can have a button that enables automatic upgrades.
Implemented automatic upgrading when the program file has changed.
Note that when an automatic upgrade happens, the webapp displays an alert
about it for a few minutes, and then closes. This still needs work.
