I am not happy with the fragile pile of CPP boilerplate required to support
ghc back to 7.0, which git-annex still targets for both the android build
and the standalone build targeting old linux kernels. It makes me unlikely
to want to use Semigroup more in git-annex, because the benefit of the
abstraction is swamped by the ugliness. I actually considered ripping out
all the Semigroup instances, but some are needed to use
optparse-applicative.
The problem, I think, is they made this transaction on too fast a timeline.
(Although ironically, work on it started in 2015 or earlier!)
In particular, Debian oldstable is not out of security support, and it's
not possible to follow the simpler workarounds documented on the wiki and
have it build on oldstable (because the semigroups package in it is too
old).
I have only tested this build with ghc 8.2.2, not the newer and older
versions that branches of the CPP support. So there could be typoes, we'll
see.

* migrate: Fix bug in migration between eg SHA256 and SHA256E,
that caused the extension to be included in SHA256 keys,
and omitted from SHA256E keys.
(Bug introduced in version 6.20170214)
* migrate: Check for above bug when migrating from SHA256 to SHA256
(and same for SHA1 to SHA1 etc), and remove the extension that should
not be in the SHA256 key.
* fsck: Detect and warn when keys need an upgrade, either to fix up
from the above migrate bug, or to add missing size information
(a long ago transition), or because of a few other past key related
bugs.

Prevent haskell http-client from decompressing gzip files, so downloads of
such files works the same as it used to with wget and curl.
Explicitly setting accept-encoding to "identity" is probably not needed,
but that's what wget sends (curl does not send the header), and since
http-client is trying to be excessively smart, it seems we need to set
hAcceptEncoding to something to prevent it from inserting its own,
and this seems better than some hack like "".

* move: --force was accidentially enabling two unrelated behaviors
since 6.20180427. The older behavior, which has never been well
documented and seems almost entirely useless, has been removed.
* copy: --force no longer does anything.

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.

* Display error message when http download fails.
There's nothing in the http-client library to nicely format a http
exception, so in some cases it has to fall back to using show on it.
Seems better than just saying "it failed" or only showing the http
status code.
* Avoid forward retry when 0 bytes were received.
forwardRetry was comparing Nothing to Just 0, and so thought there had
been progress made when 0 bytes were received.

The old git-annex Android app is now deprecated in favor of running
git-annex in termux. I suspect all or nearly all of these no longer apply.

Fix regression in last release that crashes when using --all or running
git-annex in a bare repository. May have also affected git-annex unused and
git-annex info.
Reversed the order of the (++) in Annex.Branch.files so --all will stream
lazily still when there are not a bunch of uncommitted journal files.
Added a todo to maybe improve this later.
