Needed for resuming from chunks.
Url keys are considered not stable. I considered treating url keys with a
known size as stable, but just don't feel that is enough information.
* Bugfix: Remove leading \ from checksums output by sha*sum commands,
when the filename contains \ or a newline. Closes: #696384
* fsck: Still accept checksums with a leading \ as valid, now that
above bug is fixed.
* migrate: Remove leading \ in checksums
Kqueue needs to remember which files failed to be added due to being open,
and retry them. This commit gets the data in place for such a retry thread.
Broke KeySource out into its own file, and added Eq and Ord instances
so it can be stored in a Set.
Fscking a remote is now supported. It's done by retrieving
the contents of the specified files from the remote, and checking them,
so can be an expensive operation.
(Several optimisations are possible, to speed it up, of course.. This is
the slow and stupid remote fsck to start with.)
Still, if the remote is a special remote, or a git repository that you
cannot run fsck in locally, it's nice to have the ability to fsck it.
If you have any directory special remotes, now would be a good time to
fsck them, in case you were hit by the data loss bug fixed in the
previous release!
The only remaining vestiage of backends is different types of keys. These
are still called "backends", mostly to avoid needing to change user interface
and configuration. But everything to do with storing keys in different
backends was gone; instead different types of remotes are used.
In the refactoring, lots of code was moved out of odd corners like
Backend.File, to closer to where it's used, like Command.Drop and
Command.Fsck. Quite a lot of dead code was removed. Several data structures
became simpler, which may result in better runtime efficiency. There should
be no user-visible changes.
