When used without --content or --no-content, warn about the upcoming
transition, and suggest using one of the options, or setting
annex.synccontent.

I anticipate that if sync is transitioned to syncing content by default,
people will want a short option. And in repositories where
annex.synccontent = true, they already would. And pull and push sync
content by default, so a short option is useful with them too.
Mnemonic: -g makes only git data be synced
Also, -a makes only annex data be synced.
Would have preferred -c, which would complement -C, but it
was already taken to set git configs.

Split out two new commands, git-annex pull and git-annex push. Those plus a
git commit are equivilant to git-annex sync.
In a sense, git-annex sync conflates 3 things, and it would have been
better to have push and pull from the beginning and not sync. Although
note that git-annex sync --content is faster than a pull followed by a
push, because it only has to walk the tree once, look at preferred
content once, etc. So there is some value in git-annex sync in speed, as
well as user convenience.
And it would be hard to split out pull and push from sync, as far as the
implementaton goes. The implementation inside sync was easy, just adjust
SyncOptions so it does the right thing.
Note that the new commands default to syncing content, unless
annex.synccontent is explicitly set to false. I'd like sync to also do
that, but that's a hard transition to make. As a start to that
transition, I added a note to git-annex-sync.mdwn that it may start to
do so in a future version of git-annex. But a real transition would
necessarily involve displaying warnings when sync is used without
--content, and time.

The man page is somewhat vague about this, but I do think it was a bug
that these options didn't alreay behave that way. The options are
documented to disable imports and exports, which is the same operations
just with a special remote that uses trees.
The real motivation for this is that I'm adding git-annex pull and
git-annex push, and I want these options to turn off the equivilant of
those commands. And git-annex pull will certianly download and push
upload.

Had to convert uninit to do everything that can error out inside a
CommandStart. This was harder than feels nice.
(Also, in passing, converted CommandCheck to use a data type, not a
weird number that it was not clear how it managed to be unique.)

Seems unlikely to be very useful, but trivial.
And, this completes the story that git-annex sync does not need json,
since every sub-operation is available in a command that does support json.
(Well, except for committing, but that's not a git-annex command.)

Both -J and --json needed importfeed to be refactored to use commandAction.
That was difficult, because of the interrelated nature of downloading feeds
and then downloading files from feeds, both of which needed to use
commandAction. And then checking for problems in feeds has to come after
these actions, which may be run as background jobs.
As for --json support, it's most of the way there, but still has some
warts, so I didn't enable jsonOptions yet. The warts include:
- An initial empty json record is displayed by getCache.
- Input is not populated, should be feed url
- feedProblem at end will not be captured by --json-error-messages
(see FIXME)

Also fix support for operating on multiple pairs of files and keys.
Moved notAnnexed to inside starting, so error message will get into the json.

Dunno how useful this will be, since about all that's accessible from
the json is whether it succeeded or failed, and the error messages
which were already on stderr.
Note that, when autoenabling a special remote, it would be possible for
one to stop and prompt or output not using Messages and so not output as
part of the json. I don't think that happens, but I'm not 100% sure
something doesn't manage to break it. Of course, the same could be the
case for commands that transfer objects. Using Annex.Init.autoEnableSpecialRemotes
in --json mode would avoid the problem, but I've chosen to wait until I
know it's needed to use it.

Generalized AddJSONActionItemField to allow it to add several fields. Not entirely
happy with that, since the names of the fields have to be carefully chosen to
not conflict with other json fields. And fields added that way can't be parsed
back in FromJSON, except for the "fields" field that is special cased for metadata.
Still, I couldn't see another way to do it.
Also, omit file:null from the json output. Which does affect other commands,
eg git-annex whereis --all --json. Hopefully that won't break something that expects
a null file. If it did, that could be reverted, but it would be ugly to have
file:null in the unused --json

For expire, the normal output is unchanged, but the --json output includes the uuid
in machine parseable form. Which could be very useful for this somewhat obscure
command. That needed ActionItemUUID to be implemented, which seemed like a lot
of work, but then ---
I had been going to skip implementing them for trust, untrust, dead, semitrust,
and describe, but putting the uuid in the json is useful information, it tells
what uuid git-annex picked given the input. It was not hard to support
these once ActionItemUUID was implemented.

This also changes addunused to display the names of the files that it adds.
That seems like a general usability improvement, and not displaying the input
number does not seem likely to be a problem to a user, since the filename
is based on the key. Displaying the filename was necessary to get it and the key
included in the json.
dropunused does not include the key in the json. It would be possible to
add, but would need more changes. And I doubt that dropunused --json
would be used in a situation where a program cared which keys were
dropped. Note that drop --unused does have the key in its json, so such
a program could just use it. Or could just dropkey --batch with the
specific keys it wants to drop if it cares about specific keys.

The json does not include an url field, but it does have an input field that is
"file url" when using --batch and ["file", "url"] when using the command line.
I chose not to change that because it would complicate batchInput.
An url field could be added if it turns out to be useful.

These two missed setting it.
It rarely matters that the journal gets the right perm. But, when using

This spams the user with a lot of messages, but it seems like busywork to
avoid that and only warn once, since this warning will go away when it gets
implemented.

That's too much quoting, the user expects the filename to be copy and
pasteable. It would be ok to slash-escape space ('\ ')
which is what gnu find does, but it doesn't seem necessary either.
${escaped_file} has always quoted spaces though, so keep on doing it
there.

When a nonexistant file is passed to a command and --json-error-messages
is enabled, output a JSON object indicating the problem.
(But git ls-files --error-unmatch still displays errors about such files in
some situations.)
I don't like the duplication of the name of the command introduced by this,
but I can't see a great way around it. One way would be to pass the Command
instead.
When json is not enabled, the stderr is unchanged. This is necessary
because some commands like find have custom output. So dislaying
"find foo not found" would be wrong. So had to complicate things with
toplevelFileProblem having different output with and without json.
When not using --json-error-messages but still using --json, it displays
the error to stderr, but does display a json object without the error. It
does have an errorid though. Unsure how useful that behavior is.

This reverts commit a325524454.
Turns out this was predicated on an incorrect belief that json output
didn't already sometimes lack the "key" field. Since json output already
can when `giveup` was used, it seems unncessary to add a whole new
option for this.
Added a --json-exceptions option, which makes some exceptions be output in json.
The distinction is that --json-error-messages is for messages relating
to a particular ActionItem, while --json-exceptions is for messages that
are not, eg ones for a file that does not exist.
It's unfortunate that we need two switches with such a fine distinction
between them, but I'm worried about maintaining backwards compatability
in the json output, to avoid breaking anything that parses it, and this was
the way to make sure I didn't.
toplevelWarning is generally used for the latter kind of message. And
the other calls to toplevelWarning could be converted to showException. The
only possible gotcha is that if toplevelWarning is ever called after
starting acting on a file, it will add to the --json-error-messages of the
json displayed for that file and converting to showException would be a
behavior change. That seems unlikely, but I didn't convery everything to
avoid needing to satisfy myself it was not a concern.

Propagate Annex.force into the remote's Annex state.
Fixes this problem:
joey@darkstar:~/tmp/xxxx>git-annex copy mmm --to origin --force
copy mmm (to origin...)
not enough free space, need 908.72 MB more (use --force to override this check or adjust annex.diskreserve)

failed
Does beg the question if anything else should be propagated.
Some things like Annex.forcenumcopies certianly not; using --numcopies
overrides the number of copies the current repo wants, not all of them.

enableremote: Support enableremote of a git remote (that was previously set
up with initremote) when additional parameters such as autoenable= are
passed.
The enableremote special case for regular git repos is intended to handle
ones that don't have a UUID probed, and the user wants git-annex to
re-probe. So, that special case is still needed. But, in that special
case, the user is not passing any extra parameters. So, when there are
parameters, instead run the special remote setup code. That requires there
to be a uuid known already, and it allows changing things like autoenable=
Remote.Git.enableRemote changed to be a no-op if a git remote with the name
already exists. Which it generally will in this case.

These are quite low-level, but still there is no point in displaying
escape sequences that have been embedded in a key to the terminal.
I think these are the only remaining commands that didn't use safe
output, except for cases where git-annex is speaking a protocol to
itself.
Sponsored-by: Kevin Mueller on Patreon
I'm on the fence about this. Notice that pulling from a git remote can
pull branches that have escape sequences in their names. Git will
display those as-is. Arguably git should try harder to avoid that.
But, names of remotes are usually up to the local user, and autoenable
changes that, and so it makes sense that git chooses to display control
characters in names of remotes, and so autoenable needs to guard against
it.

Searched for uses of putStr and hPutStr and changed appropriate ones to filter
out control characters and quote filenames.
This notably does not make find and findkeys quote filenames in their default
output. Because they should only do that when stdout is non a pipe.
A few commands like calckey and lookupkey seem too low-level to make sense to filter
output, so skipped those.
Also when relaying output from other commands that is not progress output,
have git-annex filter out control characters.

As well as escape sequences, control characters seem unlikely to be desired when
doing addurl, and likely to trip someone up. So disallow them as well.
I did consider going the other way and allowing filenames with control characters
and escape sequences, since git-annex is in the process of escaping display
of all filenames. Might still be a better idea?
Also display the illegal filename git quoted when it rejects it.

This is by no means complete, but escaping filenames in actionItemDesc does
cover most commands.
Note that for ActionItemBranchFilePath, the value is branch:file, and I
choose to only quote the file part (if necessary). I considered quoting the
whole thing. But, branch names cannot contain control characters, and while
they can contain unicode, git coes not quote unicode when displaying branch
names. So, it would be surprising for git-annex to quote unicode in a
branch name.
The find command is the most obvious command that still needs to be
dealt with. There are probably other places that filenames also get
displayed, eg embedded in error messages.
Some other commands use ActionItemOther with a filename, I think that
ActionItemOther should either be pre-sanitized, or should explicitly not
be used for filenames, so that needs more work.
When --json is used, unicode does not get escaped, but control
characters were already escaped in json.
(Key escaping may turn out to be needed, but I'm ignoring that for now.)
