And vice-versa, but it's better to use '/' for portability.
Notably, standardPreferredContent contains "archive/*" and that might not
match if the filename ends up coming in with the slashes the other way
around.
instance Arbitrary [Char] allows that, and it's not a legal part of a
filename so can break processing them.
Noticed when prop_view_roundtrips failed.
The instance Arbitrary AssociatedFile avoids this problem.

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

Because it's a special character on Windows ("c:").
Use same technique already used for '/' and '\'.
I didn't record how I generated their encoded forms before, so am sure
there was a better way, but the way I did it now is to look at
ghci> encodeFilePath "∕"
"\226\136\149"
And then the difference from that to "\56546\56456\56469"
is adding 56320 to each, to get up to the escaped code plane.
See comment for why I think handling ':' is ok, but that other illegal
windows filenames won't. Note that, this should be enough to make the
test suite always work. Other windows illegal filenames will fail at
checkout time when it tries to put the illegal filename on the
filesystem.
planned to use for an optimisation
most things using stagedDetails were not expecting to get dup files in a
conflicted merge and deal with them, so converted them to use
inRepoDetails.
And convert parser to attoparsec, probably faster.
Before, a parse failure threw the whole --stage output line in to the
filename, which was certianly a bad idea, so fixed that.
git is making that configurable, and configuring it globally would break
the test suite in a few places.
No other part of git-annex assumes any branch name. Renamed a few
placeholders to make that clearer.

Git will eventually switch to sha2 and there will not be one single
shaSize anymore, but two (40 and 64).
Changed all parsers for git plumbing output to support both sizes of
shas.
One potential problem this does not deal with is, if somewhere in
git-annex it reads two shas from different sources, and compares them
to see if they're the same sha, it would fail if they're sha1 and sha256
of the same value. I don't know if that will really be a concern.
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.
Finally builds (oh the agoncy of making it build), but still very
unmergable, only Command.Find is included and lots of stuff is badly
hacked to make it compile.
Benchmarking vs master, this git-annex find is significantly faster!
Specifically:
num files old new speedup
48500 4.77 3.73 28%
12500 1.36 1.02 66%
20 0.075 0.074 0% (so startup time is unchanged)
That's without really finishing the optimization. Things still to do:
* Eliminate all the fromRawFilePath, toRawFilePath, encodeBS,
decodeBS conversions.
* Use versions of IO actions like getFileStatus that take a RawFilePath.
* Eliminate some Data.ByteString.Lazy.toStrict, which is a slow copy.
* Use ByteString for parsing git config to speed up startup.
It's likely several of those will speed up git-annex find further.
And other commands will certianly benefit even more.
This does not change the overall license of the git-annex program, which
was already AGPL due to a number of sources files being AGPL already.
Legally speaking, I'm adding a new license under which these files are
now available; I already released their current contents under the GPL
license. Now they're dual licensed GPL and AGPL. However, I intend
for all my future changes to these files to only be released under the
AGPL license, and I won't be tracking the dual licensing status, so I'm
simply changing the license statement to say it's AGPL.
(In some cases, others wrote parts of the code of a file and released it
under the GPL; but in all cases I have contributed a significant portion
of the code in each file and it's that code that is getting the AGPL
license; the GPL license of other contributors allows combining with
AGPL code.)
This fixes a crash when a git submodule has a name starting with a dot.
Such a submodule might contain dotfiles that are intended to be used when
inside the view (since a dot-directory that's not a submodule was already
preserved when entering a view). So, rather than eliminating the submodule
from the view, its git ls-files --stage hash is copied over into the view.
dotfiles/dirs have their git ls-files --stage hashes similarly copied over
to the view. This is more efficient and simpler than the old method,
and also won't break if git ever adds a new type of tree item, like was
done with submodules.
Since the content of dotfiles in the working tree is no longer hashed
when entering a view, when there are unstaged modifications, they are
not included in the view branch. Entering the view branch still works,
but git checkout shows "M .dotfile", and git diff will show the unstaged
changes. This seems like an improvement over the old behavior.
Also made Command.View not delete empty directories that are submodules
when entering a view, while still deleting other empty directories.

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.

The homomorphs are back, just encoded such that it doesn't crash in LANG=C
However, I noticed a bug in the old escaping; [pseudoSlash] was escaped the
same as ['/','/']. Fixed by using '%' to escape pseudoSlash. Which requires
doubling '%' to escape it, but that's already done in the escaping of
worktree filenames in a view, so is probably ok.
This optimisation was not necessary, and didn't work for v6 unlocked files.
Typically only a small number of files will be changed by a commit, so just
catKey them all.
Backend.lookupFile is changed to always fall back to catKey when
operating on a file that's not a symlink.
catKey is changed to understand pointer files, as well as annex symlinks.
Before, catKey needed a file mode witness, to be sure it was looking at a
symlink. That was complicated stuff. Now, it doesn't actually care if a
file in git is a symlink or not; in either case asking git for the content
of the file will get the pointer to the key.
This does mean that git-annex will treat a link
foo -> WORM--bar as a git-annex file, and also treats
a regular file containing annex/objects/WORM--bar as a git-annex file.
Calling catKey could make git-annex commands need to do more work than
before. This would especially be the case if a repo contained many regular
files, and only a few annexed files, as now git-annex will need to ask
git about the contents of the regular files.
* init: Repository tuning parameters can now be passed when initializing a
repository for the first time. For details, see
http://git-annex.branchable.com/tuning/
* merge: Refuse to merge changes from a git-annex branch of a repo
that has been tuned in incompatable ways.
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.
Removed old extensible-exceptions, only needed for very old ghc.
Made webdav use Utility.Exception, to work after some changes in DAV's
exception handling.
Removed Annex.Exception. Mostly this was trivial, but note that
tryAnnex is replaced with tryNonAsync and catchAnnex replaced with
catchNonAsync. In theory that could be a behavior change, since the former
caught all exceptions, and the latter don't catch async exceptions.
However, in practice, nothing in the Annex monad uses async exceptions.
Grepping for throwTo and killThread only find stuff in the assistant,
which does not seem related.
Command.Add.undo is changed to accept a SomeException, and things
that use it for rollback now catch non-async exceptions, rather than
only IOExceptions.
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.

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.
Note that negated globs are not supported. Would have complicated the code
to add them, without changing the data type serialization in a
non-backwards-compatable way.
