That can leave other imported files not checked into git, because the git
command queue is not flushed when git-annex errors out. And since it only
happens once git-annex has concluded a feed is broken, it's an intermittent
bug, worst kind. Been seeing it for a while, only tracked down today.
Instead, by returning False, git-annex importfeed will cleanly shutdown and
still exit nonzero.

Cache high-resolution mtimes for improved detection of modified files in v7
(and direct mode).
Including on Windows.
With back-compat support so old low-res mtimes won't break anything, and
so the new information also won't break old versions of git-annex.
Removed undocumented special case in handling of a CHECKURL-MULTI response
with only a single file listed. Rather than ignoring the url that was in
the response, use it. This allows external special remotes that want to
provide some better url to do so, although I don't entirely agree with
using CHECKURL-MULTI to accomplish that. I'm more of the feeling that an
undocumented special case that throws data away is just not a good idea.
This could in theory break some external special remote program that relied
on the current behavior, but its seems unlikely that it would because such
a program must already handle the multiple url case, unless it only ever
provides a single url response to CHECKURL-MULTI.
Make addurl --file work with a single item CHECKURL-MULTI response.
It already did for external special remotes due to the special case,
but now it also will for builtin ones like the BitTorrent special remote.

This makes --version=6 still work, despite v6 not being in
supportedVersions. Which is useful for scripts that use it.
I didn't document it on the man page, because it's indistinguishable
from an automatic upgrade after initting as v6.
Install new git hooks in this version.
This does beg the question of what to do if git later gets eg a
post-smudge hook, that could run git-annex smudge --update. I think the
thing to do in that case would be to make git-annex smudge --update
install the new hooks. That way, as the user uses git-annex, the hook
would be created pretty quickly and without needing any extra syscalls
except for when git-annex smudge --update is called.
I considered doing something like that for installation of the
post-checkout and post-merge hooks, which would have avoided the need
for v7. But the only place it was cheap to do it would be in git-annex smudge
which could cheaply notice that smudge.log didn't exist yet and so know
the hooks needed to be installed. But since smudge used to populate pointer
files, it would be quite surprising if a single git checkout/merge failed
to update the work tree, and so that idea didn't work out.
The other reason for v7 is psychological -- users don't need to worry
about whether they might be running an old version of git-annex that
doesn't support their v7 repository very well. And bug reports about
"v6" have gotten a bit of a bad association in my head since they often
hit one of the known limitations and didn't realize it was experimental.
newtyped RepoVersion Int to avoid needing 2 comparisons in

Usually, git won't run clean filter when a file is unmodified. But, when
git checkout runs git annex smudge --update, it populates the pointer
runs git update-index, which sees the file has changed and runs
git annex smudge --clean, which was checksumming the file unncessarily
as it re-ingested it.
With annex.thin set, this is the difference between git checkout of a
branch with a 1 gb file taking 30s and 0.1s.

* init, upgrade: Install git post-checkout and post-merge hooks that run
git annex smudge --update.
* precommit: Run git annex smudge --update, because the post-merge
hook is not run when there is a merge conflict. So the work tree will
be updated when a commit is made to resolve the merge conflict.
* precommit: Run git annex smudge --update, because the post-merge
hook is not run when there is a merge conflict. So the work tree will
be updated when a commit is made to resolve the merge conflict.
* Note that git has no hooks run after git stash or git cherry-pick,
so the user will have to manually run git annex smudge --update
after such commands.
Nothing currently installs the hooks into v6 repos that already exist.
Something will need to be done about that, either move this behavior to v7,
or document that the user will need to manually fix up their v6 repos.

The smuge filter no longer provides git with annexed file content, to
avoid a git memory leak, and because that did not honor annex.thin.
git annex smudge --update has to be run after a checkout to update
unlocked files in the working tree with annexed file contents.
No hooks yet to run it.

This completes initial support for --hide-missing, although the
assistant still needs to be updated and it perhaps needs to be sped up,
and maybe there needs to be a way for git-annex get to operate on
missing files. Opened some more todos for those things.

This relies on git ls-files --with-tree, which I'm using in a way that
its man page does not document. Hm. I emailed the git list to try to get
the docs improved, but at least the git test suite does test the same
kind of use case I'm using here.
Performance impact when not in an adjusted branch is limited to some
additional MVar accesses, and a single git call to determine the name of
the current branch. So very minimal.
When in an adjusted branch, the performance impact is
in Annex.WorkTree.lookupFile, which starts doing an equal amount of work
for files that didn't exist as it already did for files that were
unlocked.

Both Command.Sync and Annex.Ingest had their own versions of this.
The one in Annex.Ingest used Git.Branch.currentUnsafe, but does not seem
to need it. That is only checking to see if it's in an adjusted unlocked
branch, and when in an adjusted branch, the branch does in fact exist,
so the added check that Git.Branch.current does is fine.

* At long last there's a way to hide annexed files whose content
is missing from the working tree: git-annex adjust --hide-missing
* When already in an adjusted branch, running git-annex adjust
again will update the branch as needed. This is mostly
useful with --hide-missing to hide/unhide files after their content
has been dropped or received.
Still needs integration with sync and the assistant, and not as fast as it
could be, but already usable.

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.

After 220317df5a the test suite still
detected a problem; migrate of an unlocked file replaced it with a
pointer file rather than a file with the content.
This was a bookeeping problem; the worktree file was being copied to the object
file and the inode cache updated, but if that database write didn't get
flushed in time, later checks would think the content was not present.
Fixed by copying the object file to the worktree file instead, which
avoids needing to update the inode cache.
Also, only copy when there's a hard link to break, not always.

After commit b2bafdb2fc the test suite
threw up a failure migrating unlocked files.
I'm not clear how that commit broke it (presumably by inAnnex reporting
the right information now), but the actual problem is plain:
The inodecache for the worktree file is generated, but then the file is
replaced with a copy (unncessarily unless annex.link is set, but the
code always does so) and so linkToAnnex/linkAnnex then fails because it
notices the inode cache is not valid.

Running git-annex linux builds in termux seems to work well enough that the
only reason to keep the Android app would be to support Android 4-5, which
the old Android app supported, and which I don't know if the termux method
works on (although I see no reason why it would not).
According to [1], Android 4-5 remains on around 29% of devices, down from
51% one year ago.

This is a rather large commit, but mostly very straightfoward removal of
android ifdefs and patches and associated cruft.
Also, removed support for building with very old ghc < 8.0.1, and with
yesod < 1.4.3, and without concurrent-output, which were only being used
by the cross build.
Some documentation specific to the Android app (screenshots etc) needs
to be updated still.

* rmurl: Fix a case where removing the last url left git-annex thinking
content was still present in the web special remote.
* SETURLPRESENT, SETURIPRESENT, SETURLMISSING, and SETURIMISSING
used to update the presence information of the external special remote
that called them; this was not documented behavior and is no longer done.
Done by making setUrlPresent and setUrlMissing only update presence info
for the web, and only when the url is a web url. See the comment for
reasoning about why that's the right thing to do.
In AddUrl, had to make it update location tracking, to handle the
non-web-url case.

Only display the warning when the current branch has a tree that is not
the same as the tree in the export.
Note that it doesn't check to see if the current tree is
in incompleteExportedTreeish; it might be worth checking that and reminding
the user about an incomplete export, but when export tracking is not
configured, they are probably not in the right clone of the repository to
resolve the incomplete export.

Added -z option to git-annex commands that use --batch, useful for
supporting filenames containing newlines.
It only controls input to --batch, the output will still be line delimited
unless --json or etc is used to get some other output. While git often
makes -z affect both input and output, I don't like trying them together,
and making it affect output would have been a significant complication,
and also git-annex output is generally not intended to be machine parsed,
unless using --json or a format option.
Commands that take pairs like "file key" still separate them with a space
in --batch mode. All such commands take care to support filenames with
spaces when parsing that, so there was no need to change it, and it would
have needed significant changes to the batch machinery to separate tose
with a null.
To make fromkey and registerurl support -z, I had to give them a --batch
option. The implicit batch mode they enter when not provided with input
parameters does not support -z as that would have complicated option
parsing. Seemed better to move these toward using the same --batch as
everything else, though the implicit batch mode can still be used.

The new second pass sees the file as type changed because the first
pass's changes have typically not reached git yet. So, have to
explicitly check for unmodified files in the second pass.
Note that, if the file has been touched but not really modified,
the first pass will handle it, and so the second pass does nothing.

v6: When a file is unlocked but has not been modified, and the unlocking is
only staged, git-annex add did not lock it. Now it will, for consistency
with how modified files are handled and with v5.
Note the removal of the sameInodeCache check. Otherwise it would see
that the unmodified file is unmodified and stop there. That check seems to have
been copied from the direct mode branch. But, direct mode had a specific
reason to check for unmodified content, that does not apply to v6.
The second pass means there is potential for a race, eg the unlocked
file could be modified in between the first and second passes.
No problem with that, since both passes do the same thing.

Actually very straightforward reuse of the metadata log file code.
Although I had to add a todo item as git-annex forget won't clean up
dead remote's metadata yet.
This would be worth adding to the external special remote interface
sometime. Have not opened a todo though, guess I'll wait until something
needs it.

Make git-annex sync and the assistant skip trying to drop from appendonly
remotes since it's just going to fail.
git-annex drop and similar commands will still try to drop from
appendonly, so the user will see failure messages when they try to do
that. To do otherwise would be confusing since the user has explicitly
asked for a drop with those commands.

v6: When annex.largefiles is not configured for a file, running git add or
git commit, or otherwise using git to stage a file will add it to the annex
if the file was in the annex before, and to git otherwise. This is to avoid
accidental conversion.
Note that git-annex add's behavior has not changed, for reasons explained
in the added comment.
Performance: No added overhead when annex.largefiles is configured.
When not configured, there is an added call to catObjectMetaData,
which involves a round trip through git cat-file --batch.
However, the earlier catKeyFile primes the cache for it.

Last of the known v6 races.
This also makes git add of a pointer file populate it when its content
is present in the annex. Which makes sense to do, I think.

After updating the worktree for an add/drop, update git's index, so git
status will not show the files as modified.
What actually happens is that the index update removes the inode
information from the index. The next git status (or similar) run
then has to do some work. It runs the clean filter.
So, this depends on the clean filter being reasonably fast and on git
not leaking memory when running it. Both problems were fixed in
a96972015d, but only for git 2.5. Anyone
using an older git will see very expensive git status after an add/drop.
This uses the same git update-index queue as other parts of git-annex, so
the actual index update is fairly efficient. Of course, updating the index
does still have some overhead. The annex.queuesize config will control how
often the index gets updated when working on a lot of files.
This is an imperfect workaround... Added several todos about new
problems this workaround causes. Still, this seems a lot better than the
old behavior.

v6 add: Take advantage of improved SIGPIPE handler in git 2.5 to speed up
the clean filter by not reading the file content from the pipe. This also
avoids git buffering the whole file content in memory.
When built with an older git, still consumes stdin. If built with a newer
git and used with an older one, it breaks, but that's acceptable --
checking the git version every time would make repeated smudge runs slow.

When --batch is used with matching options like --in, --metadata, etc, only
operate on the provided files when they match those options. Otherwise, a
blank line is output in the batch protocol.
Affected commands: find, add, whereis, drop, copy, move, get
In the case of find, the documentation for --batch already said it honored
the matching options. The docs for the rest didn't, but it makes sense to
have them honor them. While this is a behavior change, why specify the
matching options with --batch if you didn't want them to apply?
Note that the batch output for all of the affected commands could
already output a blank line in other cases, so batch users should
already be prepared to deal with it.
git-annex metadata didn't seem worth making support the matching options,
since all it does is output metadata or set metadata, the use cases for
using it in combination with the martching options seem small. Made it
refuse to run when they're combined, leaving open the possibility for later
support if a use case develops.

Added annex.commitmessage config that can specify a commit message for the

Added remote.name.annex-speculate-present config that can be used to
make cache remotes.
Implemented it in Remote.keyPossibilities, which is used by the
get/move/copy/mirror commands, and nothing else. This way, things like
whereis will not show content that's speculatively present.
The assistant and sync --content were not using Remote.keyPossibilities,
and were changed to use it.
The efficiency hit should be small; Remote.keyPossibilities is only
used before transferring a file, which is the expensive operation.
And, it's only doing one lookup of the remoteList and a very cheap
filter over it.
Note that, git-annex still updates the location log when copying content
to a remote with annex-speculate-present set. In this case, the location
tracking will indicate that content is present in the remote. This may
not be wanted for caches, or may not be a real problem for them. TBD.
