Like the earlier fixed one in Command.Export, it occurred when the same
tree was exported by multiple clones. Previous fix was incomplete since
several other places looked at the list of exported trees to detect when
there was an export conflict. Added a single unified function to avoid
missing any places it needed to be fixed.

This fixes a bug with the numcopies counting when using sync --content.
It did not always pass the local repo uuid to handleDropsFrom, and so the
numcopies counting was off by one, and unwanted local content would only be
dropped when there were numcopies+1 remote copies.
Also, support dropping local content that has reached an
exporttree remote that is not untrusted (currently only S3 remotes
with versioning).
When an export conflict prevents accessing a special remote, be clearer
about what the problem is and how to resolve it.

This completes initial support for --hide-missing, although the
assistant still needs to be updated and it perhaps needs to be sped up,
and maybe there needs to be a way for git-annex get to operate on
missing files. Opened some more todos for those things.

This relies on git ls-files --with-tree, which I'm using in a way that
its man page does not document. Hm. I emailed the git list to try to get
the docs improved, but at least the git test suite does test the same
kind of use case I'm using here.
Performance impact when not in an adjusted branch is limited to some
additional MVar accesses, and a single git call to determine the name of
the current branch. So very minimal.
When in an adjusted branch, the performance impact is
in Annex.WorkTree.lookupFile, which starts doing an equal amount of work
for files that didn't exist as it already did for files that were
unlocked.
This commit was sponsored by Jochen Bartl on Patreon.
Both Command.Sync and Annex.Ingest had their own versions of this.
The one in Annex.Ingest used Git.Branch.currentUnsafe, but does not seem
to need it. That is only checking to see if it's in an adjusted unlocked
branch, and when in an adjusted branch, the branch does in fact exist,
so the added check that Git.Branch.current does is fine.

This is groundwork for nested seek loops, eg seeking over all files and
then performing commandActions on a list of remotes, which can be done
concurrently.

Only display the warning when the current branch has a tree that is not
the same as the tree in the export.
Note that it doesn't check to see if the current tree is
in incompleteExportedTreeish; it might be worth checking that and reminding
the user about an incomplete export, but when export tracking is not
configured, they are probably not in the right clone of the repository to
resolve the incomplete export.

Added annex.commitmessage config that can specify a commit message for the
git-annex branch instead of the usual "update".
This commit was supported by the NSF-funded DataLad project.
Added remote.name.annex-speculate-present config that can be used to
make cache remotes.
Implemented it in Remote.keyPossibilities, which is used by the
get/move/copy/mirror commands, and nothing else. This way, things like
whereis will not show content that's speculatively present.
The assistant and sync --content were not using Remote.keyPossibilities,
and were changed to use it.
The efficiency hit should be small; Remote.keyPossibilities is only
used before transferring a file, which is the expensive operation.
And, it's only doing one lookup of the remoteList and a very cheap
filter over it.
Note that, git-annex still updates the location log when copying content
to a remote with annex-speculate-present set. In this case, the location
tracking will indicate that content is present in the remote. This may
not be wanted for caches, or may not be a real problem for them. TBD.

Unfortunately one more use remains..
This should be just as fast as the other method. The remote's Git.Repo
has already had its config read, so Annex.new's call to Git.Config.read
is a noop.
Thid commit was sponsored by andrea rota.
This is groundwork for letting a repo be instantiated the first time
it's actually used, instead of at startup.
The only behavior change is that some old special cases for xmpp remotes
were removed. Where before git-annex silently did nothing with those
no-longer supported remotes, it may now fail in some way.
The additional IO action should have no performance impact as long as
it's simply return.

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.
Clean up some uses of showStart with "" for the file,
or in some cases, a non-filename description string. That would
generate bad json, although none of the commands doing that
supported --json.
Using "" for the file resulted in output like "foo rest";
now the extra space is eliminated.

This avoids all the complication about redundant work discussed in
the previous try at fixing this. At the expense of needing each command
that could have the problem to be patched to simply wrap the action in
onlyActionOn once the key is known. But there do not seem to be many
such commands.
onlyActionOn' should not be used with a CommandStart (or CommandPerform),
although the types do allow it. onlyActionOn handles running the whole
CommandStart chain. I couldn't immediately see a way to avoid mistken
use of onlyActionOn'.

git annex add, git annex lock etc make multiple seek passes,

Also deletes any tagged pushes that the assistant might have done,
since those would also prevent resetting a branch back.
This commit was sponsored by andrea rota.
This is similar to the pusher thread, but a separate thread because git
pushes can be done in parallel with exports, and updating a big export
should not prevent other git pushes going out in the meantime.
The exportThread only runs at most every 30 seconds, since updating an
export is more expensive than pushing. This may need to be tuned.
Added a separate channel for export commits; the committer records a
commit in that channel.
Also, reconnectRemotes records a dummy commit, to make the exporter
thread wake up and make sure all exports are up-to-date. So,
connecting a drive with a directory special remote export will
immediately update it, and getting online will automatically
update S3 and WebDAV exports.
The transfer queue is not involved in exports. Instead, failed
exports are retried much like failed pushes.

Added remote configuration settings annex-ignore-command and
annex-sync-command, which are dynamic equivilants of the annex-ignore
and annex-sync configurations.
For this I needed a new DynamicConfig infrastructure. Its implementation
should be as fast as before when there is no dynamic config, and it caches
so shell commands are only run once.
Note that annex-ignore-command exits nonzero when the remote should be ignored.
While that may seem backwards, it allows using the same command for it as
for annex-sync-command when you want to disable both.

* Added annex.resolvemerge configuration, which can be set to false to
disable the usual automatic merge conflict resolution done by git-annex
sync and the assistant.
* sync: Added --no-resolvemerge option.
Note that disabling merge conflict resolution is probably not a good idea
in a direct mode repo or adjusted branch. Since updates to both are done
outside the usual work tree, if it fails the tree is not left in a
conflicted state, and it would be hard to manually resolve the conflict.
Still, made annex.resolvemerge be supported in those cases for consistency.

The former can be useful to make remotes that don't get fully synced with
local changes, which comes up in a lot of situations.
The latter was mostly added for symmetry, but could be useful (though less
likely to be).
Implementing `remote.<name>.annex-pull` was a bit tricky, as there's no one
place where git-annex pulls/fetches from remotes. I audited all
instances of "fetch" and "pull". A few cases were left not checking this
config:
* Git.Repair can try to pull missing refs from a remote, and if the local
repo is corrupted, that seems a reasonable thing to do even though
the config would normally prevent it.
* Assistant.WebApp.Gpg and Remote.Gcrypt and Remote.Git do fetches
as part of the setup process of a remote. The config would probably not
be set then, and having the setup fail seems worse than honoring it if it
is already set.
I have not prevented all the code that does a "merge" from merging branches
from remotes with remote.<name>.annex-pull=false. That could perhaps
be done, but it would need a way to map from branch name to remote name,
and the way refspecs work makes that hard to get really correct. So if the
user fetches manually, the git-annex branch will get merged, for example.
Anther way of looking at/justifying this is that the setting is called
"annex-pull", not "annex-merge".

Recent changes had a side effect of displaying errors in the fairly
common case when this push fails. Since the synced/git-annex push
is always forced, those errors are noise, so hide again.
This means 3 separate pushes are done now, where before it only made 2.
A bit more expensive, but ssh connection caching eliminates most of
the costs.

At first I wanted to make it go ahead and merge into the newborn branch,
so made it use Git.Branch.currentUnsafe to get the current branch. But that
failed:
fatal: ambiguous argument 'refs/heads/master..refs/heads/synced/master':
unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
A whole nother code path to handle merging into newborn branches seemed
excessive, so went with displaying a warning and propigating failure

.. which can be set to true to make git annex sync default to --content.
This may become the default at some point in the future.
As well as being configuable by git config, it can be configured by
git-annex config to control the default behavior in all clones of a
repository.
Had to add a separate --no-content switch to we can tell if it's been
explicitly set, and should override annex.synccontent. If --content was the
default, this complication would not be necessary.

... to control the default behavior in all clones of a repository.
This includes a new Configurable data type, so the GitConfig type indicates
which values can be configured this way.
The implementation should be quite efficient; the config log is only read
once, and only when a Configurable value has not already been set by
git-config.
Indeed, it would be nice in the future to extend this, so that git-config
is itself only read on demand. Some commands may not need to look at the
git configuration at all.

ghc 8 added backtraces on uncaught errors. This is great, but git-annex was
using error in many places for a error message targeted at the user, in
some known problem case. A backtrace only confuses such a message, so omit it.
Notably, commands like git annex drop that failed due to eg, numcopies,
used to use error, so had a backtrace.

This makes merging a remote into a freshly created direct mode repository
work the same as it works in indirect mode.
The git-annex branches would get merged in any case by a sync,
since that doesn't use git merge.
This might need to be revisited later to better mirror git's behavior.
* sync: Previously, when run in a branch with a slash in its name,
such as "foo/bar", the sync branch was "synced/bar". That conflicted
with the sync branch used for branch "bar", so has been changed to
"synced/foo/bar".
* adjust: Previously, when adjusting a branch with a slash in its name,
such as "foo/bar", the adjusted branch was "adjusted/bar(unlocked)".
That conflicted with the adjusted branch used for branch "bar",
so has been changed to "adjusted/foo/bar(unlocked)"
* Also, running sync in an adjusted branch did not correctly sync
changes back to the parent branch when it had a slash in its name.
This bug has been fixed.
Eliminate use of Git.Ref.under and Git.Ref.basename; using
Git.Ref.underBase and Git.Ref.base make everything handle deep branches
correctly.
Probably noone was adjusting deep branches, and v6 is still experimental
anyway, so I'm not going to worry about the mess that was left by that bug.
In the case of git-annex sync, using a fixed git-annex with an old unfixed
one will mean they use different sync branches for a deep branch, and so
they may stop syncing until the old one is upgraded. However, that's only
a problem when syncing between repositories without going via a central
bare repository. Added a warning about this to the CHANGELOG, but it's
probably not going to affect many people at all.

Show branch:file that is being operated on.
I had to make ActionItem a type and not a type class because
withKeyOptions' passed two different types of values when using the type
class, and I could not get the type checker to accept that.
Added --branch option to copy, drop, fsck, get, metadata, mirror, move, and
whereis commands. This option makes git-annex operate on files that are
included in a specified branch (or other treeish).
The names of the files from the branch that are being operated on are not
displayed yet; only the keys. Displaying the filenames will need changes
to every affected command.
Also, note that --branch can be specified repeatedly. This is not really
documented, but seemed worth supporting, especially since we may later want
the ability to operate on all branches matching a refspec. However, when
operating on two branches that contain the same key, that key will be
operated on twice.
Added guard in Annex.Transfer to prevent this problem at a deeper level.
I'm unhappy ith NoUUID, but having Maybe UUID instead wouldn't help either
if nothing checked that there was a UUID. Since there legitimately need to
be Remotes that do not have a UUID, I can't see a way to fix it at the type
level, short making there be two separate types of Remotes.
git 2.8.1 (or perhaps 2.9.0) is going to prevent git merge from merging in
unrelated branches. Since the webapp's pairing etc features often combine
together repositories with unrelated histories, work around this behavior
change by setting GIT_MERGE_ALLOW_UNRELATED_HISTORIES when the assistant
merges.
Note though that this is not done for git annex sync's merges, so
it will follow git's default or configured behavior.
This is how direct mode does it too, and somehow, for reasons that
currently escape me, this makes git merge not care if it's run with an
empty work tree.
Rationalle: User might have hook scripts whose output they want to see.
Also, git commit output may tell the user they forgot to add a file.
The output is not too ugly when there's nothing to commit.
So, it will pull and push the original branch, not the adjusted one.
And, for merging, it will use updateAdjustedBranch (not implemented yet).
Note that remaining uses of Git.Branch.current need to be checked too;
for things that should act on the original branch, and not the adjusted
branch.
Commands that want to use it have to run their seek action inside
allowConcurrentOutput. Which seems reasonable; perhaps some future command
will want to support the -J flag but not use regions.
The region state moved from Annex to MessageState. This makes sense
organizationally, and note that some uses of onLocal use a different Annex
state, but pass the MessageState into it, which is what is needed.
There should be no behavior changes in this commit, it just adds a more
expressive data type and adjusts code that had been passing around a [UUID]
or sometimes a Maybe Remote to instead use [VerifiedCopy].
Although, since some functions were taking two different [UUID] lists,
there's some potential for me to have gotten it horribly wrong.
* When annex objects are received into git repositories, their checksums are
verified then too.
* To get the old, faster, behavior of not verifying checksums, set
annex.verify=false, or remote.<name>.annex-verify=false.
* setkey, rekey: These commands also now verify that the provided file
matches the key, unless annex.verify=false.
* reinject: Already verified content; this can now be disabled by
setting annex.verify=false.
recvkey and reinject already did verification, so removed now duplicate
code from them. fsck still does its own verification, which is ok since it
does not use getViaTmp, so verification doesn't happen twice when using fsck
--from.
Now it suffices to run git remote add, followed by git-annex sync. Now the
remote is automatically initialized for use by git-annex, where before the
git-annex branch had to manually be pushed before using git-annex sync.
Note that this involved changes to git-annex-shell, so if the remote is
using an old version, the manual push is still needed.
Implementation required git-annex-shell be changed, so configlist can
autoinit a repository even when no git-annex branch has been pushed yet.
Unfortunate because we'll have to wait for it to get deployed to servers
before being able to rely on this change in the documentation.
Did consider making git-annex sync push the git-annex branch to repos that
didn't have a uuid, but this seemed difficult to do without complicating it
in messy ways.
It would be cleaner to split a command out from configlist to handle
the initialization. But this is difficult without sacrificing backwards
compatability, for users of old git-annex versions which would not use the
new command.
This is a work in progress. It compiles and is able to do basic command
dispatch, including git autocorrection, while using optparse-applicative
for the core commandline parsing.
* Many commands are temporarily disabled before conversion.
* Options are not wired in yet.
* cmdnorepo actions don't work yet.
Also, removed the [Command] list, which was only used in one place.
The branch needs to be created when merging from the remote in sync,
since we diff between it and the remote's sync branch. But git annex merge
should not be creating sync branches.
This is needed because when preferred content matches on files,
the second pass would otherwise want to drop all keys. Using a bloom filter
avoids this, and in the case of a false positive, a key will be left
undropped that preferred content would allow dropping. Chances of that
happening are a mere 1 in 1 million.
This makes git annex unused use around 48 mb more memory than it did before,
but the massive increase in accuracy makes this worthwhile for all but the
smallest systems.
Also, I want to use the bloom filter for sync --all --content, to avoid
dropping files that the preferred content doesn't want, and 1/1000
false positives would be far too many in that use case, even if it were
acceptable for unused.
Actual memory use numbers:
1000: 21.06user 3.42system 0:26.40elapsed 92%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 501552maxresident)k
1000000: 21.41user 3.55system 0:26.84elapsed 93%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 549496maxresident)k
10000000: 21.84user 3.52system 0:27.89elapsed 90%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 549920maxresident)k
Based on these numbers, 10 million seemed a better pick than 1 million.
This works, and seems fairly robust. Clean get of 20 files at -J3. At -J10,
there are some messages about ssh multiplexing, probably due to a race
spinning up the ssh connection cacher. But, it manages to get all the files
ok regardless.
The progress bars are a scrambled mess though, due to bugs in
ascii-progress, which I've already filed. Particularly this one:
https://github.com/yamadapc/haskell-ascii-progress/issues/8
Seen for example, a newly checked out git submodule. In this case,
.git/HEAD is a raw sha, rather than the usual reference to a ref.
Removed currentSha in passing, since it was a more roundabout way of
doing what headSha does, and headSha is more robust.
See my comment in the bug report for analysis; basically this is safe
because it's a non-forced push, so won't lose history. Even if it was a
forced push or somehow races, things will eventually become consistent and
no git-annex branch info will be lost.
(This used to be done, but it forgot to do it since version 4.20130909.)
* sync: Use the ssh-options git config when doing git pull and push.
* remotedaemon: Use the ssh-options git config.
Note that the rename env var means that if a new git-annex calls an old one
for git-annex ssh, or a new calls an old, nothing much will go wrong;
just ssh caching won't happen.
Note that while the assistant detects changes made to remote names, I left
the commit message fixed rather than calculating it after every commit. It
doesn't seem worth the CPU to do the latter.
I think this is the last problimatic setCurrentDirectory. I also audited
for extrnal commands that git-annex might run with cwd = foo, and did not
find any that were passed any FilePath that might be absolute.
In the case where a remote of the bare repo has a fetch = configuration,
refs/remotes/origin/master will exist, and so the merge code path tried to
run in the bare repo.
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.
Support users who have set commit.gpgsign, by disabling gpg signatures for
git-annex branch commits and commits made by the assistant.
The thinking here is that a user sets commit.gpgsign intending the commits
that they manually initiate to be gpg signed. But not commits made in the
background, whether by a deamon or implicitly to the git-annex branch.
gpg signing those would be at best a waste of CPU and at worst would fail,
or flood the user with gpg passphrase prompts, or put their signature on
changes they did not directly do.
See Debian bug #753720.
Also makes all commits done by git-annex go through a few central control
points, to make such changes easier in future.
Also disables commit.gpgsign in the test suite.

When in direct mode, update the master branch after committing to the
annex/direct/master branch. Also, update the synced/master branch.
This fixes a topology A->B where both A and B are in direct mode and
running the assistant, and a change is made to B. Before this fix, A pulled
the changes from B, but since they were only on the annex/direct/master
branch, it did not merge them.
Note that I considered making the assistant merge the
remotes/B/annex/direct/master, but decided to keep it simple and only merge
the sync branches as before.
Only fsck and reinject and the test suite used the Backend, and they can
look it up as needed from the Key. This simplifies the code and also speeds
it up.
There is a small behavior change here. Before, all commands would warn when
acting on an annexed file with an unknown backend. Now, only fsck and
reinject show that warning.
For sync, saves 1 ssh connection per remote. For remotedaemon, the same
ssh connection that is already open to run git-annex-shell notifychanges
is reused to pull from the remote.
Only potential problem is that this also enables connection caching
when the assistant syncs with a ssh remote. Including the sync it does
when a network connection has just come up. In that case, cached ssh
connections are likely to be stale, and so using them would hang.
Until I'm sure such problems have been dealt with, this commit needs to
stay on the remotecontrol branch, and not be merged to master.

This is a new feature, it was not handled before, since it's a bit of an
edge case. However, it can be handled exactly the same as a file/dir
conflict, just leave the non-annexed item alone.
While implementing this, the core resolveMerge' function got a lot simpler
and clearer. Note especially that where before there was an asymetric call to
stagefromdirectmergedir, now graftin is called symmetrically in both cases.
And, in order to add that `graftin us`, the current branch needed to be
known (if there is no current branch, there cannot be a merge conflict).
This led to some cleanups of how autoMergeFrom behaved when there is no
current branch.

I think that 751f496c11 didn't quite manage
to actually fix the bug, although I have not checked since its "fix" got
redone.
The test suite now actually checks the file staged in git is a symlink,
rather than relying on the bug casing a later sync failure. This seems a
more reliable way to detect it, and probably avoids a heisenbug in the test
suite.
Added test cases for both ways this can happen, with a conflict involving a
file, or a directory.
Cleaned up resolveMerge to not touch the work tree in direct mode, which
turned out to be the only way to handle things.. And makes it much nicer.
Still need to run test suite on windows.
Using the extract(1) program to do the heavy lifting.
Decided to make git-annex run pre-commit-annex when committing. Since
git-annex pre-commit also runs it, it'll be run when git commit is run too,
via the pre-commit hook. This basically gives back the pre-commit hook
that git-annex took away. The implementation avoids repeatedly looking
for the hook script when the assistant is running and committing
repeatedly; only checks if the hook is available once.
To make the script simpler, made git-annex metadata -s field?=value
only set a field when it's not already got a value.

* sync --content: Honor annex-ignore configuration.
* sync: Don't try to sync with xmpp remotes, which are only currently
supported when using the assistant.
Several places assumed this would not happen, and when the AssociatedFile
was Nothing, did nothing.
As part of this, preferred content checks pass the Key around.
Note that checkMatcher is sometimes now called with Just Key and Just File.
It currently constructs a FileMatcher, ignoring the Key. However, if it
constructed a FileKeyMatcher, which contained both, then it might be
possible to speed up parts of Limit, which currently call the somewhat
expensive lookupFileKey to get the Key.
I have not made this optimisation yet, because I am not sure if the key is
always the same. Will need some significant checking to satisfy myself
that's the case..
I've been disliking how the command seek actions were written for some
time, with their inversion of control and ugly workarounds.
The last straw to fix it was sync --content, which didn't fit the
Annex [CommandStart] interface well at all. I have not yet made it take
advantage of the changed interface though.
The crucial change, and probably why I didn't do it this way from the
beginning, is to make each CommandStart action be run with exceptions
caught, and if it fails, increment a failure counter in annex state.
So I finally remove the very first code I wrote for git-annex, which
was before I had exception handling in the Annex monad, and so ran outside
that monad, passing state explicitly as it ran each CommandStart action.
This was a real slog from 1 to 5 am.
Test suite passes.
Memory usage is lower than before, sometimes by a couple of megabytes, and
remains constant, even when running in a large repo, and even when
repeatedly failing and incrementing the error counter. So no accidental
laziness space leaks.
Wall clock speed is identical, even in large repos.

Similar to the assistant, this honors any configured preferred content
expressions.
I am not entirely happpy with the implementation. It would be nicer if
the seek function returned a list of actions which included the individual
file gets and copies and drops, rather than the current list of calls to
syncContent. This would allow getting rid of the somewhat reundant display
of "sync file [ok|failed]" after the get/put display.
But, do that, withFilesInGit would need to somehow be able to construct
such a mixed action list. And it would be less efficient than the current
implementation, which is able to reuse several values between eg get and
drop.
Note that currently this does not try to satisfy numcopies when
getting/putting files (numcopies are of course checked when dropping
files!) This makes it like the assistant, and unlike get --auto
and copy --auto, which do duplicate files when numcopies is not yet
satisfied. I don't know if this is the right decision; it only seemed to
make sense to have this parallel the assistant as far as possible to start
with, since I know the assistant works.

The assistant's commit code also always avoids git commit, for simplicity.
Indirect mode sync still does a git commit -a to catch unstaged changes.
Note that this means that direct mode sync no longer runs the pre-commit
hook or any other hooks git commit might call. The git annex pre-commit
hook action for direct mode is however explicitly run. (The assistant
already ran git commit with hooks disabled, so no change there.)
Now that direct mode sets core.bare=true, git's normal prohibition about
pushing into the currently checked out branch doesn't work.
A simple fix for this would be an update hook which blocks the pushes..
but git hooks must be executable, and git-annex needs to be usable on eg,
FAT, which lacks x bits.
Instead, enabling direct mode switches the branch (eg master) to a special
purpose branch (eg annex/direct/master). This branch is not pushed when
syncing; instead any changes that git annex sync commits get written to
master, and it's pushed (along with synced/master) to the remote.
Note that initialization has been changed to always call setDirect,
even if it's just setDirect False for indirect mode. This is needed because
if the user has just cloned a direct mode repo, that nothing has synced
with before, it may have no master branch, and only a annex/direct/master.
Resulting in that branch being checked out locally too. Calling setDirect False
for indirect mode moves back out of this branch, to a new master branch,
and ensures that a manual "git push" doesn't push changes directly to
the annex/direct/master of the remote. (It's possible that the user
makes a commit w/o using git-annex and pushes it, but nothing I can do
about that really.)

Note that this case is only fully automatically resolved in direct mode.
In indirect mode, git merge moves the file to file~HEAD, and replaces it
with the directory, and leaves the file in unmerged state, and sync doesn't
yet change that.
Done using a mode witness, which ensures it's fixed everywhere.
Fixing catFileKey was a bear, because git cat-file does not provide a
nice way to query for the mode of a file and there is no other efficient
way to do it. Oh, for libgit2..
Note that I am looking at tree objects from HEAD, rather than the index.
Because I cat-file cannot show a tree object for the index.
So this fix is technically incomplete. The only cases where it matters
are:
1. A new large file has been directly staged in git, but not committed.
2. A file that was committed to HEAD as a symlink has been staged
directly in the index.
This could be fixed a lot better using libgit2.
Ie, when there'a a conflicted merge we may get foo.variant-xxxx
created in a merge. If a second merge conflict occurs on that new file,
it was not falling back to putting in the whole key (which should stop
the merge conflicts happening for good, but is ugly).
