When annex.freezecontent-command is set, and the filesystem does not
support removing write bits, avoid treating it as a crippled filesystem.
The hook may be enough to prevent writing on its own, and some filesystems
ignore attempts to remove write bits.

v9 will not need to write to annex content files in order to lock them,
so freezeContent removes the write bit in a shared repository, the same
as in any other repository.
checkContentWritePerm makes sure that the write perm is not set, which
will let git-annex fsck fix up the permissions. Upgrading to v9
will need to fix the permissions as well, but it seems likely there will
be situations where the user git-annex is running an upgrade as cannot,
so it will have to leave the write bit set. In such a case, git-annex
fsck can fix it later.

This fixes a reversion caused by a99a84f342,
when git-annex init is run as root on a FAT filesystem mounted with
hdiutil on OSX. Such a mount point has file mode 777 for everything and
it cannot be changed. The existing crippled filesystem test tried to
write to a file after removing write bit, but that test does not run as
root (since root can write to unwritable files). So added a check of the
write permissions of the file, after attempting to remove them.

git-annex get when run as the first git-annex command in a new repo did not
populate unlocked files. (Reversion in version 8.20210621)
I am not entirely happy with this, because I don't understand how
428c91606b caused the problem in the first
place, and I don't fully understand how skipping calling scanAnnexedFiles
during autoinit avoids the problem.
Kept the explicit call to scanAnnexedFiles during git-annex init,
so that when reconcileStaged is expensive, it can be made to run then,
rather than at some later point when the information is needed.

The pass was needed to populate files when annex.thin was set,
but in commit 73e0cbbb19,
reconcileStaged started to do that. So, this second pass is not needed
any longer.
init: Fix misbehavior when core.sharedRepository = group that caused it to
enter an adjusted branch. (Reversion in version 8.20210630)
Commit 4b1b9d7a83 made init call
freezeContent in case there was a hook that could prevent writing in
situations where perms don't. But with the above git config, freezeContent
does not prevent write at all. So init needs to do what freezeContent does
with a non-shared git config.
Or init could check for that config, and skip the probing, since it
won't actually be preventing write to any files. But that would make init
too aware if details of Annex.Perms, and also would break if the git config
were changed after init.

Freeze first sets the file perms, and then runs
freezecontent-command. Thaw runs thawcontent-command before
restoring file permissions. This is in case the freeze command
prevents changing file perms, as eg setting a file immutable does.
Also, changing file perms tends to mess up previously set ACLs.
git-annex init's probe for crippled filesystem uses them, so if file perms
don't work, but freezecontent-command manages to prevent write to a file,
it won't treat the filesystem as crippled.
When the the filesystem has been probed as crippled, the hooks are not
used, because there seems to be no point then; git-annex won't be relying
on locking annex objects down. Also, this avoids them being run when the
file perms have not been changed, in case they somehow rely on
git-annex's setting of the file perms in order to work.

This makes git checkout and git merge hooks do the work to catch up with
changes that they made to the tree. Rather than doing it at some later
point when the user is not thinking about that past operation.

Avoids users thinking this scan is a big deal, when it's not in the
majority of repos.
showSideActionAfter has some ugly caveats, since it has to display in
the background of another action. I could not see a better way to do it
and it works fine in this particular case. It also doesn't really belong
in Annex.Concurrent, but cannot go in Messages due to an import loop.

Before only unlocked files were included.
The initial scan now scans for locked as well as unlocked files. This
does mean it gets a little bit slower, although I optimised it as well
as I think it can be.
reconcileStaged changed to diff from the current index to the tree of
the previous index. This lets it handle deletions as well, removing
associated files for both locked and unlocked files, which did not
always happen before.
On upgrade, there will be no recorded previous tree, so it will diff
from the empty tree to current index, and so will fully populate the
associated files, as well as removing any stale associated files
that were present due to them not being removed before.
reconcileStaged now does a bit more work. Most of the time, this will
just be due to running more often, after some change is made to the
index, and since there will be few changes since the last time, it will
not be a noticable overhead. What may turn out to be a noticable
slowdown is after changing to a branch, it has to go through the diff
from the previous index to the new one, and if there are lots of
changes, that could take a long time. Also, after adding a lot of files,
or deleting a lot of files, or moving a large subdirectory, etc.
Command.Lock used removeAssociatedFile, but now that's wrong because a
newly locked file still needs to have its associated file tracked.
Command.Rekey used removeAssociatedFile when the file was unlocked.
It could remove it also when it's locked, but it is not really
necessary, because it changes the index, and so the next time git-annex
run and accesses the keys db, reconcileStaged will run and update it.
There are probably several other places that use addAssociatedFile and
don't need to any more for similar reasons. But there's no harm in
keeping them, and it probably is a good idea to, if only to support
mixing this with older versions of git-annex.
However, mixing this and older versions does risk reconcileStaged not
running, if the older version already ran it on a given index state. So
it's not a good idea to mix versions. This problem could be dealt with
by changing the name of the gitAnnexKeysDbIndexCache, but that would
leave the old file dangling, or it would need to keep trying to remove
it.
Can beet to false to avoid some expensive things needed to support unlocked
files.
See my comment for why this only controls what init sets up, and not other
behavior.
I didn't bother with making the v5 upgrade code path look at this, though
it easily could, because the docs say to run git-annex init after setting
it to make it take effect.
git -c was already propagated via environment, but need this for
consistency.
Also, notice it does not use gitAnnexChildProcess to run the
transferrer. So nothing is done about avoid it taking the
pid lock. It's possible that the caller is already doing something that
took the pid lock, and if so, the transferrer will certianly fail,
since it needs to take the pid lock too. This may prevent combining
annex.stalldetection with annex.pidlock, but I have not verified it's
really a problem. If it was, it seems git-annex would have to take
the pid lock when starting a transferrer, and hold it until shutdown,
or would need to take pid lock when starting to use a transferrer,
and hold it until done with a transfer and then drop it. The latter
would require starting the transferrer with pid locking disabled for the
child process, so assumes that the transferrer does not do anyting that
needs locking when not running a transfer.
* Guard against running in a repo where annex.uuid is set but
annex.version is set, or vice-versa.
* Avoid autoinit when a repo does not have annex.version or annex.uuid
set, but has a git-annex objects directory, suggesting it was used
by git-annex before.
It's not concurrent-output safe, and doesn't support
--json-error-messages.
Using Annex.makeRunner is a bit scary, because what if it's run in a
different thread from an active annex action? Normally the same Annex
state is not used concurrently in several threads, and it's not designed
to be fully concurrency safe. (Annex.Concurrent exists to deal with
that.) I think it will be ok in these simple cases though. Eg,
when buffering a warning message to json, Annex.changeState is used,
and it modifies the MVar in a concurrency safe way.
The only warningIO remaining is not a problem.
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,

nukeFile replaced with removeWhenExistsWith removeLink, which allows
using RawFilePath. Utility.Directory cannot use RawFilePath since setup
does not depend on posix.

Those are not installed by git-annex but by the user, and so removal
will never find the default content, and so if the user did install
them, it would display a misleading message.
Seems better, since the user installed them, to let the user remove them
if they want to.
Fixes reversion in 8.20200617 that made annex.pidlock being enabled result
in some commands stalling, particularly those needing to autoinit.
Renamed runsGitAnnexChildProcess to make clearer where it should be
used.
Arguably, it would be better to have a way to make any process git-annex
runs have the env var set. But then it would need to take the pid lock
when running any and all processes, and that would be a problem when
git-annex runs two processes concurrently. So, I'm left doing it ad-hoc
in places where git-annex really does run a child process, directly
or indirectly via a particular git command.
* Improve display of problems auto-initializing or upgrading local git
remotes.
* When a local git remote cannot be initialized because it has no
git-annex branch or a .noannex file, avoid displaying a message about it.
Some recent changes to use mask missed that async exceptions can still
be thrown inside it. The goal is to make sure a block of cleanup code
runs entirely, w/o being interrupted by an async exception, so use
uninterruptibleMask.
Also, converted a few to bracket, which is nicer.
Audited for openFile and openFd, and this fixes all the ones I found
where an async exception could prevent the file getting closed.
Except for the lock pool, which is a whole other can of worms.
Not yet 100% done, so far I've grepped for waitForProcess and converted
everything that uses that to start the process with withCreateProcess.
Except for some things like P2P.IO and Assistant.TransferrerPool,
and Utility.CoProcess, that manage a pool of processes. See #2
in https://git-annex.branchable.com/todo/more_extensive_retries_to_mask_transient_failures/#comment-209f8a8c38e63fb3a704e1282cb269c7
for how those will need to be dealt with.
checkSuccessProcess, ignoreFailureProcess, and forceSuccessProcess calls waitForProcess, so
callers of them will also need to be dealt with, and have not been yet.
Try to enable special remotes configured with autoenable=yes when git-annex
auto-initialization happens in a new clone of an existing repo. Previously,
git-annex init had to be explicitly run to enable them. That was a bit of a
wart of a special case for users to need to keep in mind.
Special remotes cannot display anything when autoenabled this way, to avoid
interfering with the output of git-annex query commands.
Any error messages will be hidden, and if it fails, nothing is displayed.
The user will realize the remote isn't enable when they try to use it,
and can run git-annex init manually then to try the autoenable again and
see what failed.
That seems like a reasonable approach, and it's less complicated than
communicating something across a pipe in order to display it as a side
message. Other reason not to do that is that, if the first command the
user runs is one like git-annex find that has machine readable output,
any message about autoenable failing would need to not be displayed anyway.
So better to not display a failure message ever, for consistency.
(Had to split out Remote.List.Util to avoid an import cycle.)
This means it will still be a .git file when git-annex init runs. That's
ok, the repo probably contains no annexed objects yet, and even if it does,
git-annex init does not care if symlinks in the worktree don't point to the
objects.
I made init, at the end, run the conversion code. Not really necessary
because the next git-annex command could do it just as well. But, this
avoids commands that don't normally write to the repo needing to write to
it, which might avoid some problem or other, and seems worth avoiding
generally.
Adds a dependency on filepath-bytestring, an as yet unreleased fork of
filepath that operates on RawFilePath.
Git.Repo also changed to use RawFilePath for the path to the repo.
This does eliminate some RawFilePath -> FilePath -> RawFilePath
conversions. And filepath-bytestring's </> is probably faster.
But I don't expect a major performance improvement from this.
This is mostly groundwork for making Annex.Location use RawFilePath,
which will allow for a conversion-free pipleline.
The parser and looking up config keys in the map should both be faster
due to using ByteString.
I had hoped this would speed up startup time, but any improvement to
that was too small to measure. Seems worth keeping though.
Note that the parser breaks up the ByteString, but a config map ends up
pointing to the config as read, which is retained in memory until every
value from it is no longer used. This can change memory usage
patterns marginally, but won't affect git-annex.
It's not necessary. And if the bare repo somehow has a pointer
file in it with the same name as a file in HEAD, that file would be
populated, which would be surprising since the file is not really under
git's control.
Fix bug that lost modifications to unlocked files when init is re-ran in an
already initialized repo.
In retrospect needing scanUnlockedFiles False in the direct mode upgrade
path was a good hint that it was unsafe when used with True.
However, this bug did not affect upgrade from v5. In such an upgrade, an
unlocked file that is modified is left as-is. The only place
scanUnlockedFiles True did overwrite modified unlocked files is during an
git-annex init of a repo that was already initialized by git-annex.
(I also tried a scenario where the repo had not been initialized by
git-annex yet, but was cloned from a v7 repo with an unlocked file, and the
pointer file replaced with some other content, and the data loss did not
occur in that situation.)
Since the fixed scanUnlockedFiles avoids overwriting non-pointer files,
it should be safe to run in any situation, so there's no need any longer
for the parameter.
This brings back .git/annex/misctmp, but only for init. If an init
is interrupted while probing using that temp directory, the files it left
will get deleted 1 week later by a subsequent git-annex run.
Can be set to false to prevent any automatic repository upgrades.
Also, removed direct mode specific upgrade code in Annex.Init, and made
needsUpgrade always include the name/path of the repo, so if
there's a problem it's clear what repo has the problem.
And, made needsUpgrade catch any exceptions that might occur during the
upgrade, so it can display a more useful error message than just the
exception.
