When building an adjusted unlocked branch, make pointer files executable
when the annex object file is executable.
This slows down git-annex adjust --unlock/--unlock-present by needing to
stat all annex object files in the tree. Probably not a significant
slowdown compared to other work they do, but I have not benchmarked.
I chose to leave git-annex adjust --unlock marked as stable, even though
get or drop of an object file can change whether it would make the pointer
file executable. Partly because making it unstable would slow down
re-adjustment, and partly for symmetry with the handling of an unlocked
pointer file that is executable when the content is dropped, which does not
remove its execute bit.
While redundant concurrent transfers were already prevented in most
cases, it failed to prevent the case where two different repositories were
sending the same content to the same repository. By removing the uuid
from the transfer lock file for Download transfers, one repository
sending content will block the other one from also sending the same
content.
In order to interoperate with old git-annex, the old lock file is still
locked, as well as locking the new one. That added a lot of extra code
and work, and the plan is to eventually stop locking the old lock file,
at some point in time when an old git-annex process is unlikely to be
running at the same time.
Note that in the case of 2 repositories both doing eg
`git-annex copy foo --to origin`
the output is not that great:
copy b (to origin...)
transfer already in progress, or unable to take transfer lock
git-annex: transfer already in progress, or unable to take transfer lock
97% 966.81 MiB 534 GiB/s 0sp2pstdio: 1 failed
Lost connection (fd:14: hPutBuf: resource vanished (Broken pipe))
Transfer failed
Perhaps that output could be cleaned up? Anyway, it's a lot better than letting
the redundant transfer happen and then failing with an obscure error about
a temp file, which is what it did before. And it seems users don't often
try to do this, since nobody ever reported this bug to me before.
(The "97%" there is actually how far along the *other* transfer is.)
