This removes versionedExport, which was only used by the S3 special
remote. Instead, versionedexport=yes is a common way for remotes to
indicate that they are versioned.
This allows git-annex post-receive, on the first push to
the remote to see that it is able to get a key from it in
order to upload it back.
Also avoided actively checking if the source remote contains a key.
The location log is good enough. If the location log is wrong,
the export of that file will fail with an informative message.
This is similar to git-annex copy --from --to, in that it downloads a
local copy, locks it for removal, uploads it, and drops it. Removal of
the temporary local copy is done without verifying numcopies for the
same reason as that command.
I do wonder, looking at this, if there's a race where the local copy
gets used as a copy to allow some other drop in the narrow window after
it is downloaded and before it gets locked for removal. That would need
some other repository to have an out of date location log that says the
repository contains a copy of the key, in order for it to try to use it
as a copy. If there is such a race, git-annex copy/move would also be
vulnerable to it. It would be better to lock it for removal before
starting to download it! That is possible in v10 repositories, which do
use a separate content lock file.
Note that, when the exported tree contains several files that use the
same key, it will be downloaded repeatedly, once per time needed to
upload it. It would be possible to avoid that extra work, but it would
complicate this since the local copy would need to be preserved, locked
for removal, until the end. Also, that would mean that interrupting the
export would leave possibly a lot of temporarily downloaded keys in the
local repository, while currently it can only leave one.
When a file never got exported to the remote, and is now being removed
from the exported tree, it tried to rename, which failed, and displayed
an ugly warning:
unexport d m8
rename failed (/home/joey/tmp/bench2/d/m8: renameFile:renamePath:rename: does not exist (No such file or directory)); deleting instead
ok
It works when using git-annex sync/push/assist, or when manually sending
all content to the proxied remote before pushing to the proxy remote.
But when the push comes before the content is sent, sending content does
not update the exported tree.
(When possible, of course it may not be there, or it may get renamed from
there for another exported file first. Or the remote may not support
renames.)
This will avoids redundant uploads.
An example case where this is important: Proxying to a exporttree remote,
a file is uploaded to it but is not yet in an exported tree. When the
exported tree is pushed, the remote needs to be updated by exporting to
it. In this case, the proxy doesn't have a copy of the file, so it would
need to download it from annexobjects before uploading it to the final
location. With this optimisation, it can just rename it.
However: If a key is used twice in an exported tree, it seems a proxy
will need to download and reupload anyway. Unless a copy operation is
added to exporttree remotes..
This avoids needing to re-upload the file again to get it to the
annexobjects location, which git-annex sync was doing when it was
preferred content.
If the file is not preferred content, sync will drop it from the
annexobjects location.
If the file has been deleted from the tree, it will remain in the
annexobjects location until an unused/dropunused pass is done.
When a file in the export is renamed, and the remote's renameExport
returned Nothing, renaming to the temp file would first say it was
renaming, and appear to succeed, but actually what it did was delete the
file. Then renaming from the temp file would not do anything, since the
temp file is not present on the remote. This appeared as if a file got
renamed to a temp file and left there.
Note that exporttree=yes importree=yes remotes have their usual
renameExport replaced with one that returns Nothing. (For reasons
explained in Remote.Helper.ExportImport.) So this happened
even with remotes that support renameExport.
Fix by letting renameExport = Nothing when it's not supported at all.
This avoids displaying the rename.

Improve disk free space checking when transferring unsized keys to
local git remotes. Since the size of the object file is known, can
check that instead.
Getting unsized keys from local git remotes does not check the actual
object size. It would be harder to handle that direction because the size
check is run locally, before anything involving the remote is done. So it
doesn't know the size of the file on the remote.
Also, transferring unsized keys to other remotes, including ssh remotes and
p2p remotes don't do disk size checking for unsized keys. This would need a
change in protocol.
(It does seem like it would be possible to implement the same thing for
directory special remotes though.)
In some sense, it might be better to not ever do disk free checking for
unsized keys, than to do it only sometimes. A user might notice this
direction working and consider it a bug that the other direction does not.
On the other hand, disk reserve checking is not implemented for most
special remotes at all, and yet it is implemented for a few, which is also
inconsistent, but best effort. And so doing this best effort seems to make
some sense. Fundamentally, if the user wants the size to always be checked,
they should not use unsized keys.

And annex.largefiles and annex.addunlocked.
Also git-annex matchexpression --explain explains why its input
expression matches or fails to match.
When there is no limit, avoid explaining why the lack of limit
matches. This is also done when no preferred content expression is set,
although in a few cases it defaults to a non-empty matcher, which will
be explained.

Converted warning and similar to use StringContainingQuotedPath. Most
warnings are static strings, some do refer to filepaths that need to be
quoted, and others don't need quoting.
Note that, since quote filters out control characters of even
UnquotedString, this makes all warnings safe, even when an attacker
sneaks in a control character in some other way.
When json is being output, no quoting is done, since json gets its own
quoting.
This does, as a side effect, make warning messages in json output not
be indented. The indentation is only needed to offset warning messages
underneath the display of the file they apply to, so that's ok.

Added StringContainingQuotedPath, which is used for ActionItemOther.
In the process, checked every ActionItemOther for those containing

This serves two purposes. --remote=web bypasses other special remotes that
claim the url, same as addurl --raw. And, specifying some other remote
allows making sure that an url is claimed by the remote you expect,
which makes then using setpresentkey not be fragile.

export: Fix a bug that left a file on a special remote when two files with
the same content were both deleted in the exported tree.
Case of the wrong data structure leading to the wrong result.
The DiffMap now contains all the old filenames, and all the new filenames.
Note that, when 2 files with the same content are both renamed,
it only renames the first, but deletes and re-exports the second.
Improving that is possible, but it would need to use a different temporary
filename. Anyway, that is an unusual case, and there are known to be other
unusual cases where export does not rename with maximum efficiency, IIRC.
(Or maybe this is the case that I remember?)

When importing from versioned remotes, fix tracking of the content of
deleted files.
Only S3 supports versioning so far, so only it was affected.
But, the draft import/export interface for external remotes also seemed to
need a change, so that versionedExport could be set.
--backend is no longer a global option, and is only accepted by commands
that actually need it.
Three commands that used to support backend but don't any longer are
watch, webapp, and assistant. It would be possible to make them support it,
but I doubt anyone used the option with these. And in the case of webapp
and assistant, the option was handled inconsistently, only taking affect
when the command is run with an existing git-annex repo, not when it
creates a new one.
Also, renamed GlobalOption etc to AnnexOption. Because there are many
options of this type that are not actually global (any more) and get
added to commands that need them.

So that importing does not replace them with plain files.
This works similarly to how the previous handling of submodules and
matchers did, except that annexed symlinks still get exported as plain
files of course, it's only non-annexed symlinks that it does not make sense
to export.
When symlinks have previously been exported, updating the export will
unexport them after upgrading to this commit.

Not yet used, but allows getting the size of items in the tree fairly
cheaply.
I noticed that CmdLine.Seek uses ls-tree and the feeds the files into
another long-running process to check their size. That would be an
example of a place that might be sped up by using this. Although in that
particular case, it only needs to know the size of unlocked files, not
locked. And since enabling --long probably doubles the ls-tree runtime
or more, the overhead of using it there may outwweigh the benefit.
Like import was using ActionItemWorkTreeFile, it's ok to use it for export,
even though it might not correspond with a file in the work tree.
And renamed it to ActionItemTreeFile to make that clearer.
Note that when an export has to rename files, it still uses
ActionItemOther, so file will still be null in that case, but as no file is
being transferred, that seems ok.
import: When the previously exported tree contained a submodule,
preserve it in the imported tree so it does not get deleted.
The export exclude log, which was used for non-preferred content,
now also includes the submodules. Since the log format is git ls-tree
output, this does not break backwards compatibility.
It's not necessary to log location of GIT keys, because these files are
not annexed files and so git-annex will never need to get them.
This corresponds to code in Annex.Import that already checked before
updating the location log when handling deleted files.
Older versions of git-annex that used SHA1 keys for non-annexed files
also unncessarily updated the location log for them.
GIT keys still appear in the git-annex branch for content identifier
logs, so kept the documentation of them in backends.mdwn

This solves the problem that import of such files gets confused and
converts them back to annexed files.
The import code already used GIT keys internally when it determined a
file should not be annexed. So now when it sees a GIT key that export
used, it already does the right thing.
This also means that even older version of git-annex can import and will
do the right thing, once a fixed version has exported. Still, there may
be other complications around upgrades; still need to think it all
through.
Moved gitShaKey and keyGitSha from Key to Annex.Export since they're
only used for export/import.
Documented GIT keys in backends, since they do appear in the git-annex
branch now.

Added LinkType to ProvidedInfo, and unified MatchingKey with
ProvidedInfo. They're both used in the same way, so there was no real
reason to keep separate.
Note that addLocked and addUnlocked still set matchNeedsFileName,
because to handle MatchingFile, they do need it. However, they
don't use it when MatchingInfo is provided. This should be ok,
the --branch case will be able skip checking matchNeedsFileName,
since it will provide a filename in any case.
When annex.stalldetection is not enabled, and a likely stall is detected,
display a suggestion to enable it.
Note that the progress meter display is not taken down when displaying
the message, so it will display like this:
0% 8 B 0 B/s
Transfer seems to have stalled. To handle stalling transfers, configure annex.stalldetection
0% 10 B 0 B/s
Although of course if it's really stalled, it will never update
again after the message. Taking down the progress meter and starting
a new one doesn't seem too necessary given how unusual this is,
also this does help show the state it was at when it stalled.
Use of uninterruptibleCancel here is ok, the thread it's canceling
only does STM transactions and sleeps. The annex thread that gets
forked off is separate to avoid it being canceled, so that it
can be joined back at the end.
A module cycle required moving from dupState the precaching of the

This is groundwork for using git-annex transferkeys to run transfers,
in order to allow stalled transfers to be interrupted and retried.
The new upload and download are closer to what git-annex transferkeys
does, so the plan is to make them use it.
Then things that were left using upload' and download' won't recover
from stalls. Notably, that includes import and export. But
at least get/move/copy will be able to. (Also the assistant hopefully,
but not yet.)

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.
This is only implemented for git-annex get so far. It makes git-annex
get nearly twice as fast in a repo with 10k files, all of them present!
But, see the TODO for some caveats.
Fix a crash or potentially not all files being exported when sync -J
--content is used with an export remote.
Crash as described in fixed bug report.
waitForAllRunningCommandActions inserted in several points where all the
commandActions started before need to have finished before moving on to
the next stage of the export. A race across those points could have
maybe resulted in not all files being exported, or a wrong tree being
export.
For example, changeExport starting up an action like
a rename of A to B. Then, with that action still running, fillExport
uploading a new A, *before* the rename occurred. That race seems
unlikely to have happened. There are some other ones that this also
fixes.
Finishes the transition to make remote methods throw exceptions, rather
than silently hide them.
A bit on the fence about this one, because when renameExport fails,
it falls back to deleting instead, and so does the user care why it failed?
However, it did let me clean up several places in the code.
