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 /

Based on the example from the tip, but modified to cd into the repo before
running git-annex, since konqueror does not. Also, at least on my system,
the directory is ~/.kde, not ~/.kde4. (konqueror 4.12.4)

* webapp: Support using git-annex on a remote server, which was installed
from the standalone tarball or OSX app, and so does not have
git-annex in PATH (and may also not have git or rsync in PATH).
* standalone tarball, OSX app: Install a ~/.ssh/git-annex-wrapper, which
can be used to run git-annex, git, rsync, etc.
This is so gratutious and pointless. It's a shame that everything we
learned about Unix portability and the importance of standards has been
thrown out the window by these guys.
It was doubly broken; both missing a slash, and containing
"runshell git-annex", while some parts of the code expected it to be a
simple path to a program. This appears to include the transfer queue
runner, and the code that starts a new assistant process when switching to
another repository in the webapp.
This was needed for the OSX self-contained app, but is a generally good
idea. It avoids needing perl; is probably faster; and could eventually
be replaced by something faster yet.
I put it in ~/.ssh/ because there's no reliable way to get it into PATH,
and OSX ssh doesn't even honor user's PATH by default.
authorized_keys generators will need to check if it's there. Not done yet.
