It would be nice if command-specific options were supported. The first
difficulty is that which command is being called is not known until after
getopt; but that could be worked around by finding the first non-dashed
parameter. Storing the settings without putting them in the annex monad is
the next difficulty; it could perhaps be handled by making the seek stage
pass applicable settings into the start stage (and from there on to perform
as needed). But that still leaves a problem, what data type to use to
represent the options between getopt and seek?
This new approach allows filtering out checks from the default set that are
not appropriate for a command, rather than having to list every check
that is appropriate. It also reduces some boilerplate.
Haskell does not define Eq for functions, so I had to go a long way around
with each check having a unique id. Meh.
find: Rather than only showing files whose contents are present, when used
with --exclude --copies or --in, displays all files that match the
specified conditions.
Note that this is a behavior change for find --exclude! Old behavior
can be gotten with find --in . --exclude=...
These were a mistake, they make the type signatures harder to read and
less flexible. The CommandSeek, CommandStart, CommandPerform, and
CommandCleanup types were a good idea, but composing them with the
parameters expected is going too far.
When adding files to the annex, the symlinks pointing at the annexed
content are made to have the same mtime as the original file. While git
does not preserve that information, this allows a tool like metastore to be
used with annexed files.
Based on http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3307 ,
whether FilePath contains decoded unicode varies by OS.
So, add a configure check for it.
Also, renamed showFile to filePathToString
Internally, the filenames are stored as un-decoded unicode.
I tried decoding them, but then haskell tries to access the wrong files.
Hmm.
So, I've unhappily chosen option "B", which is to decode filenames before
they are displayed.
