Avoid using fileSize which maxes out at just 2 gb on Windows.
Instead, use hFileSize, which doesn't have a bounded size.
Fixes support for files > 2 gb on Windows.
Note that the InodeCache code only needs to compare a file size,
so it doesn't matter it the file size wraps. So it has been
left as-is. This was necessary both to avoid invalidating existing inode
caches, and because the code passed FileStatus around and would have become
more expensive if it called getFileSize.

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 only performs some basic tests so far; no testing of chunking or
resuming. Also, the existing encryption type of the remote is used; it
would be good later to derive an encrypted and a non-encrypted version of
the remote and test them both.

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.
Added new fields for chunk number, and chunk size. These will not appear
in normal keys ever, but will be used for chunked data stored on special
remotes.

Note that the hash backends were made to stop printing a (checksum..)
message as part of this, since it showed up without a file when deciding
whether to act on a file. Should have probably removed that message a while
ago anyway, I suppose.
FAT has a lot of characters it does not allow in filenames, like ? and *
It's probably the worst offender, but other filesystems also have
limitiations.
In 2011, I made keyFile escape : to handle FAT, but missed the other
characters. It also turns out that when I did that, I was also living
dangerously; any existing keys that contained a : had their object
location change. Oops.
So, adding new characters to escape to keyFile is out. Well, it would be
possible to make keyFile behave differently on a per-filesystem basis, but
this would be a real nightmare to get right. Consider that a rsync special
remote uses keyFile to determine the filenames to use, and we don't know
the underlying filesystem on the rsync server..
Instead, I have gone for a solution that is backwards compatable and
simple. Its only downside is that already generated URL and WORM keys
might not be able to be stored on FAT or some other filesystem that
dislikes a character used in the key. (In this case, the user can just
migrate the problem keys to a checksumming backend. If this became a big
problem, fsck could be made to detect these and suggest a migration.)
Going forward, new keys that are created will escape all characters that
are likely to cause problems. And if some filesystem comes along that's
even worse than FAT (seems unlikely, but here it is 2013, and people are
still using FAT!), additional characters can be added to the set that are
escaped without difficulty.
(Also, made WORM limit the part of the filename that is embedded in the key,
to deal with filesystem filename length limits. This could have already
been a problem, but is more likely now, since the escaping of the filename
can make it longer.)

SHA3 is still waiting for final standardization.
Although this is looking less likely given
https://www.cdt.org/blogs/joseph-lorenzo-hall/2409-nist-sha-3
In the meantime, cryptohash implements skein, and it's used by some of the
haskell ecosystem (for yesod sessions, IIRC), so this implementation is
likely to continue working. Also, I've talked with the cryprohash author
and he's a reasonable guy.
It makes sense to have an alternate high security hash, in case some
horrible attack is found against SHA2 tomorrow, or in case SHA3 comes out
and worst fears are realized.
I'd also like to support using skein for HMAC. But no hurry there and
a new version of cryptohash has much nicer HMAC code, so I will probably
wait until I can use that version.
This is a massive win on OSX, which doesn't have a sha256sum normally.
Only use external hash commands when the file is > 1 mb,
since cryptohash is quite close to them in speed.
SHA is still used to calculate HMACs. I don't quite understand
cryptohash's API for those.
Used the following benchmark to arrive at the 1 mb number.

Started with a problem when running addurl on a really long url,
because the whole url is munged into the filename. Ended up doing
a fairly extensive review for places where filenames could get too large,
although it's hard to say I'm not missed any..
Backend.Url had a 128 character limit, which is fine when the limit is 255,
but not if it's a lot shorter on some systems. So check the pathconf()
limit. Note that this could result in fromUrl creating different keys
for the same url, if run on systems with different limits. I don't see
this is likely to cause any problems. That can already happen when using
addurl --fast, or if the content of an url changes.
Both Command.AddUrl and Backend.Url assumed that urls don't contain a
lot of multi-byte unicode, and would fail to truncate an url that did
properly.
A few places use a filename as the template to make a temp file.
While that's nice in that the temp file name can be easily related back to
the original filename, it could lead to `git annex add` failing to add a
filename that was at or close to the maximum length.
Note that in Command.Add.lockdown, the template is still derived from the
filename, just with enough space left to turn it into a temp file.
This is an important optimisation, because the assistant may lock down
a bunch of files all at once, and using the same template for all of them
would cause openTempFile to iterate through the same set of names,
looking for an unused temp file. I'm not very happy with the relatedTemplate
hack, but it avoids that slowdown.
Backend.WORM does not limit the filename stored in the key.
I have not tried to change that; so git annex add will fail on really long
filenames when using the WORM backend. It seems better to preserve the
invariant that a WORM key always contains the complete filename, since
the filename is the only unique material in the key, other than mtime and
size. Since nobody has complained about add failing (I think I saw it
once?) on WORM, probably it's ok, or nobody but me uses it.
There may be compatability problems if using git annex addurl --fast
or the WORM backend on a system with the 255 limit and then trying to use
that repo in a system with a smaller limit. I have not tried to deal with
those.

Run the same code git-annex used to get the sha, including its sanity
checking. Much better than old grep. Should detect FreeBSD systems with
sha commands that output in stange format.
This after fielding a bug where git-annex was built with a sha256 program
whose output checked out, but was then run with one that output lines
like:
SHA256 (file) = <sha here>
Which it then parsed as having a SHA256 of "SHA256"!
Now the output of the command is required to be of the right length,
and contain only the right characters.
* SHA*E backends: Exclude non-alphanumeric characters from extensions.
* migrate: Remove leading \ in SHA* checksums, and non-alphanumerics
from extensions of SHA*E keys.
* 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
The default backend used when adding files to the annex is changed from
SHA256 to SHA256E, to simplify interoperability with OSX, media players,
and various programs that needlessly look at symlink targets.
To get old behavior, add a .gitattributes containing: * annex.backend=SHA256
Make Utility.Process wrap the parts of System.Process that I use,
and add debug logging to them.
Also wrote some higher-level code that allows running an action
with handles to a processes stdin or stdout (or both), and checking
its exit status, all in a single function call.
As a bonus, the debug logging now indicates whether the process
is being run to read from it, feed it data, chat with it (writing and
reading), or just call it for its side effect.
Test suite now passes with -threaded!
I traced back all the hangs with -threaded to System.Cmd.Utils. It seems
it's just crappy/unsafe/outdated, and should not be used. System.Process
seems to be the cool new thing, so converted all the code to use it
instead.
In the process, --debug stopped printing commands it runs. I may try to
bring that back later.
Note that even SafeSystem was switched to use System.Process. Since that
was a modified version of code from System.Cmd.Utils, it needed to be
converted too. I also got rid of nearly all calls to forkProcess,
and all calls to executeFile, which I'm also doubtful about working
well with -threaded.
Using Crypto's version of the hashes would be another option.
I need to benchmark it. The SHA2 library (which provides SHA1 also,
confusing name) may be the fastest option, but is not currently in Debian.
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!
There are several places where it's assumed a key can be written on one
line. One is in the format of the .git/annex/unused files. The difficult
one is that filenames derived from keys are fed into git cat-file --batch,
which has a line based input. (And no -z option.)
So, for now it's best to block such keys being created.
