isKnownImportLocation does a database lookup and there's an index
to make that lookup fast, so it's probably faster than talking to git
check-ignore. Checking the matcher is faster still.
While before the gitignore check was added it did not need to always
check isknown, now it does, because it's that or the more expensive
notignored. But at least we can skip notignored when a file is known,
which will often be the common case: Importing from a remote that's been
exported to, and/or imported from before, only new files will not be
known, so only those will need to check notignored.
At first, I had this:
(matches <&&> (isknown <||> notignored)) <||> isknown
Notice that checks isknown every time, whether it matches or not.
So, it's no slower to instead do this:
isknown <||> (matches <&&> notignored)
That has the benefit that, when it's known, it doesn't need to run
matches, which while faster than isknown, is still going to use some CPU.
And it perhaps more clearly expresses the condition: Any known file is
wanted, otherwise it's down to what matches and is not ignored.

It seemed best to do this, for consistency with every other way files can
get into a git-annex repo. Although it's just a bit strange that a local
.gitignore file affects the pseudo-commits made for the remote that's
imported from.

sync: When run without --content, import without copying from
importtree=yes directory special remotes. (Other special remotes may
support this later as well.)
This commit was sponsored by Svenne Krap on Patreon.
This avoids import with --no-content and with --content potentially
generating two different trees, leading to a merge conflict when run in
two different clones of a repo. And it's necessary groundwork to make
git-annex sync --no-content import from special remotes that support
importKey.
Only the directory special remote currently supports importKey, and it
generates the same key as git-annex usually does, so there is no
behavior change for it.
Future special remotes will need to take care when adding importKey,
if it generates different keys. Added some warnings about that to
comments.

Import small files into git, the same as is done when importing with content.
Which means, for small files, --no-content does download them.
If the largefiles expression needs the file content available
(due to mimetype or mimeencoding being used), the import will fail.
This commit was sponsored by Jake Vosloo on Patreon.
The latter is for git-annex matchexpression and matching against it can
throw an exception. Splitting out the former reduces the potential for
mistakes and avoids needing to worry about matching against that
throwing an exception.
This is more groundwork for matching largefiles while importing,
without downloading content.
This commit was sponsored by Graham Spencer on Patreon.
Anything that needs to examine the file content will fail to match,
or fall back to other available information. But the intent is that the
matcher be checked for matchNeedsFileContent and only be used if it does
not, so the exact behavior doesn't much matter as it should never
happen.
The real point of this is to not need to provide a dummy content file
when matching.

Believed to be no longer needed as I've squashed the last ones.
Note that, in Test.Framework, I can see no reason for the code to have
run it twice. It does not cause running processes to exit after all,
so any process that has leaked and is running and causing problems with
cleanup of the directory won't be helped by running it.

Eliminate a zombie that was only cleaned up by the later zombie cleanup
code.
This is still not ideal, it would be cleaner if it used conduit or
something, and if the thread gets killed before waiting, it won't stop
the process.
Only remaining zombies are in CmdLine.Seek
Sped up seeking for files to operate on, when using options like --copies
or --in, by around 20%.
Benchmark showed an increase for --copies from 155 seconds to 121
seconds, and --in remote will be similar to that.
For --in here, the speedup was less, 5-10% or so.

Sped up seeking to around twice as fast, by avoiding a pass over the
worktree files when preferred content expressions of the local repo and
remotes don't use include=/exclude=.

add, addurl, importfeed, import: Added --no-check-gitignore option
for finer grained control than using --force.
(--force is used for too many different things, and at least one
of these also uses it for something else. I would like to reduce
--force's footprint until it only forces drops or a few other data
losses. For now, --force still disables checking ignores too.)
addunused: Don't check .gitignores when adding files. This is a behavior
change, but I justify it by analogy with git add of a gitignored file
adding it, asking to add all unused files back should add them all back,
not skip some. The old behavior was surprising.
In Command.Lock and Command.ReKey, CheckGitIgnore False does not change
behavior, it only makes explicit what is done. Since these commands are run
on annexed files, the file is already checked into git, so git add won't
check ignores.
No behavior changes (hopefully), just adding SeekInput and plumbing it
through to the JSON display code for later use.
Over the course of 2 grueling days.
withFilesNotInGit reimplemented in terms of seekHelper
should be the only possible behavior change. It seems to test as
behaving the same.
Note that seekHelper dummies up the SeekInput in the case where
segmentPaths' gives up on sorting the expanded paths because there are
too many input paths. When SeekInput later gets exposed as a json field,
that will result in it being a little bit wrong in the case where
100 or more paths are passed to a git-annex command. I think this is a
subtle enough problem to not matter. If it does turn out to be a
problem, fixing it would require splitting up the input
parameters into groups of < 100, which would make git ls-files run
perhaps more than is necessary. May want to revisit this, because that
fix seems fairly low-impact.
Works better with automatic merge conflict resolution than git's ususual

This case was handled by cleanConflictCruft, but only when the annexed
file's object was present. When not present, it left the annexed file
with the original name, not checked into git, while adding the variant
file. So, add an explicit deletion of the deleted file in this case.
My specific case where this happened actually involves
merge.directoryRenames=conflict. After a merge involving that,
the situation was the file appears as "added by them", because that
caused the file that they added to be moved into a directory we renamed.
That case is the same as them adding a modified version of the file,
while we deleted it. (Except for the history of the file, since it's a
new file, but this doesn't look at history.)

This does not actually change how the merge conflict is resolved when
one side deleted the file, but it was not documented before, and I think
it only worked by accident.

One reason is, 5 is an arbitrary number so ought to be configurable.
The real reason though, is I wanted to make the man page explain when
forward retry can override annex.retry, and having a config made the
man page easier to write.
This fixes the problem that, if forwardRetry was checked for the first 5
and decided to retry, the 6th would go to configuredRetry which would
see the counter was 6 and so wait retry-delay*2^5 seconds (default 32).
Now, it waits for retry-delay before each retry, even when forwardRetry
initiated the retry.
Also audited for other calls to openTempFile, and all are ok,
except for viaTmp which will need further work.
Remote.Directory fixed to set umask mode when writing to an export,
although it has another one using viaTmp that's not fixed.
Will make exports that are published via a http server running as
another user work, for example.
Remote.BitTorrent fixed to set umask mode when downloading the torrent
file. Normally this does not matter as that file does not hang around
after the download, but if a bittorrent download were started by one user,
got interrupted and then another user ran it, this will let them access
the torrent file created by the first user.
Fixes reversion in 8.20200617 that made annex.pidlock being enabled result
in some commands stalling, particularly those needing to autoinit.
Renamed runsGitAnnexChildProcess to make clearer where it should be
used.
Arguably, it would be better to have a way to make any process git-annex
runs have the env var set. But then it would need to take the pid lock
when running any and all processes, and that would be a problem when
git-annex runs two processes concurrently. So, I'm left doing it ad-hoc
in places where git-annex really does run a child process, directly
or indirectly via a particular git command.
sanitizeFilePath was changed to sanitize leading '.', but ImportFeed was
running it on parts of the template. So eg the leading '.' in the extension
got sanitized.
Note the added case for sanitizeLeadingFilePathCharacter ('/':_)
-- this was added because, if the template is title/episode and the title
is not set, it would expand to "/episode". So this is another potential
security fix.
This was already prevented in other ways, but as seen in commit
c30fd24d91, those were a bit fragile.
And I'm not sure races were avoided in every case before. At least a
race between two separate git-annex processes, dropping the same
content, seemed possible.
This way, if locking fails, and the content is not present, it will
always do the right thing. Also, it avoids the overhead of an unncessary
inAnnex check for every file.
This commit was sponsored by Denis Dzyubenko on Patreon.
The test suite noticed this case, where two files with the same key are
dropped, and the seek stage sees both have content due to the way files
stream through it. But then locking the content to drop fails on the
second file, because the first file has already been dropped.
So, add back otherwise redundant inAnnex check.
Sped up seeking files to drop by 2x, and also some performance
improvements to checking numcopies.
Interestingly, the seek speedup is not due to precaching, but I think is
due to calling getParsed earlier.
Annex.Drop had to be changed to check inAnnex there, since it was removed
from Command.Drop. All other users of Command.Drop already checked inAnnex
themselves.

This is groundwork for external backends, but also makes sense to keep
this information with the rest of a Backend's implementation.
Also, removed isVerifiable. I noticed that the same information is
encoded by whether a Backend implements verifyKeyContent or not.
