Combinations like --hide-misssing --unlocked seem very useful. On the
other hand, combining --fix with --unlock doesn't make sense because a
file can be either unlocked or a symlink that can be fixed, but not
both.
Changed the serialization of HideMissingAdjustment in passing, but it
has not actually been used yet so nothing will be broken.

Avoids annex.largefiles inconsitency and also avoids a lot of
unneccessary calls to the clean filter when a large repo's clone
is being initialized.
This commit was supported by the NSF-funded DataLad project.
When annex.thin is set, adding an object will add the execute bits to the
work tree file, and this does mean that the annex object file ends up
executable.
This doesn't add any complexity that wasn't already present, because git
annex add of an executable file has always ingested it so that the annex
object ends up executable.
But, since an annex object file can be executable or not, when populating
an unlocked file from one, the executable bit is always added or removed
to match the mode of the pointer file.
This makes the direct mode to v6 upgrade able to be performed in one clone
of a repository without affecting other clones, which can continue using v5
and direct mode.
Fixes several bugs with updates of pointer files. When eg, running
git annex drop --from localremote
it was updating the pointer file in the local repository, not the remote.
Also, fixes drop ../foo when run in a subdir, and probably lots of other
problems. Test suite drops from ~30 to 11 failures now.
TopFilePath is used to force thinking about what the filepath is relative
to.
The data stored in the sqlite db is still just a plain string, and
TopFilePath is a newtype, so there's no overhead involved in using it in
DataBase.Keys.
May be unlocked files pulled from elsewhere, but converting from direct
mode will add more. So, do the scan for them first, since it empties
anything currently in the database.
Decided it's too scary to make v6 unlocked files have 1 copy by default,
but that should be available to those who need it. This is consistent with
git-annex not dropping unused content without --force, etc.
* Added annex.thin setting, which makes unlocked files in v6 repositories
be hard linked to their content, instead of a copy. This saves disk
space but means any modification of an unlocked file will lose the local
(and possibly only) copy of the old version.
* Enable annex.thin by default on upgrade from direct mode to v6, since
direct mode made the same tradeoff.
* fix: Adjusts unlocked files as configured by annex.thin.
This fixes a race where the modified file ended up in annex/objects, and
the InodeCache stored in the database was for the modified version, so
git-annex didn't know it had gotten modified.
The race could occur when the smudge filter was running; now it gets the
InodeCache before generating the Key, which avoids the race.
Since all places where a repo is used in direct mode need to have git-annex
upgraded before the repo can safely be converted to v6, the upgrade needs
to be manual for now.
I suppose that at some point I'll want to drop all the direct mode support
code. At that point, will stop supporting v5, and will need to auto-upgrade
any remaining v5 repos. If possible, I'd like to carry the direct mode
support for say, a year or so, to give people plenty of time to upgrade and
avoid disruption.
