This does not change the overall license of the git-annex program, which
was already AGPL due to a number of sources files being AGPL already.
Legally speaking, I'm adding a new license under which these files are
now available; I already released their current contents under the GPL
license. Now they're dual licensed GPL and AGPL. However, I intend
for all my future changes to these files to only be released under the
AGPL license, and I won't be tracking the dual licensing status, so I'm
simply changing the license statement to say it's AGPL.
(In some cases, others wrote parts of the code of a file and released it
under the GPL; but in all cases I have contributed a significant portion
of the code in each file and it's that code that is getting the AGPL
license; the GPL license of other contributors allows combining with
AGPL code.)
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.

Needed so that the assistant can download from exports.
updateExportTreeFromLog is normally only run one time, but needs to be
run repeatedly during the lifetime of the assistant.

Previously, only sync branches were merged. This makes regular git push
into a repository watched by the assistant auto-merge.
While this does hardcode an assumption about what the remote tracking
branch is named, which some unusual git configurations won't match,
git-annex sync already made the same assumption.
Also, changed behavior when a tracking branch like
refs/remotes/synced/not/master is received. When on the master branch,
that used to get merged into it, but it's the tracking branch for
not/master, so should only be merged in when on the not/master branch.

* Added annex.resolvemerge configuration, which can be set to false to
disable the usual automatic merge conflict resolution done by git-annex
sync and the assistant.
* sync: Added --no-resolvemerge option.
Note that disabling merge conflict resolution is probably not a good idea
in a direct mode repo or adjusted branch. Since updates to both are done
outside the usual work tree, if it fails the tree is not left in a
conflicted state, and it would be hard to manually resolve the conflict.
Still, made annex.resolvemerge be supported in those cases for consistency.

This makes merging a remote into a freshly created direct mode repository
work the same as it works in indirect mode.
The git-annex branches would get merged in any case by a sync,
since that doesn't use git merge.
This might need to be revisited later to better mirror git's behavior.
I've long considered the XMPP support in git-annex a wart.
It's nice to remove it.
(This also removes the NetMessager, which was only used for XMPP, and the
daemonstatus's desynced list (likewise).)
Existing XMPP remotes should be ignored by git-annex.

The keys database handle needs to be closed after merging, because the
smudge filter, in another process, updates the database. Old cached info
can be read for a while from the open database handle; closing it ensures
that the info written by the smudge filter is available.
This is pretty horribly ad-hoc, and it's especially nasty that the
transferrer closes the database every time.
git 2.8.1 (or perhaps 2.9.0) is going to prevent git merge from merging in
unrelated branches. Since the webapp's pairing etc features often combine
together repositories with unrelated histories, work around this behavior
change by setting GIT_MERGE_ALLOW_UNRELATED_HISTORIES when the assistant
merges.
Note though that this is not done for git annex sync's merges, so
it will follow git's default or configured behavior.
Support users who have set commit.gpgsign, by disabling gpg signatures for
git-annex branch commits and commits made by the assistant.
The thinking here is that a user sets commit.gpgsign intending the commits
that they manually initiate to be gpg signed. But not commits made in the
background, whether by a deamon or implicitly to the git-annex branch.
gpg signing those would be at best a waste of CPU and at worst would fail,
or flood the user with gpg passphrase prompts, or put their signature on
changes they did not directly do.
See Debian bug #753720.
Also makes all commits done by git-annex go through a few central control
points, to make such changes easier in future.
Also disables commit.gpgsign in the test suite.

This is a new feature, it was not handled before, since it's a bit of an
edge case. However, it can be handled exactly the same as a file/dir
conflict, just leave the non-annexed item alone.
While implementing this, the core resolveMerge' function got a lot simpler
and clearer. Note especially that where before there was an asymetric call to
stagefromdirectmergedir, now graftin is called symmetrically in both cases.
And, in order to add that `graftin us`, the current branch needed to be
known (if there is no current branch, there cannot be a merge conflict).
This led to some cleanups of how autoMergeFrom behaved when there is no
current branch.

Removed instance, got it all to build using fromRef. (With a few things
that really need to show something using a ref for debugging stubbed out.)
Then added back Read instance, and made Logs.View use it for serialization.
This changes the view log format.
Observed that the pushed refs were received, but not merged into master.
The merger never saw an add event for these refs. Either git is not writing
to a new file and renaming it into place, or the inotify code didn't notice
that. Changed it to also watch for modify events and that seems to have
fixed it!
This fixes the issue mentioned in the last commit.
Turns out just collecting UUID of clients behind a XMPP remote is
insufficient (although I should probably still do it for other reasons),
because a single remote repo might be connected via both XMPP and local
pairing. So a way is needed to know when a push was received from any
client using a given XMPP remote over XMPP, as opposed to via ssh.
Make manualPull send push requests over XMPP.
When reconnecting with remotes, those that are XMPP remotes cannot
immediately be pulled from and scanned, so instead maintain a set of
(probably) desynced remotes, and put XMPP remotes on it. (This set could be
used in other ways later, if we can detect we're out of sync with other
types of remotes.)
The merger handles detecting when a XMPP push is received from a desynced
remote, and triggers a scan then, if they have in fact diverged.
This has one known bug: A single XMPP remote can have multiple clients
behind it. When this happens, only the UUID of one client is recorded
as the UUID of the XMPP remote. Pushes from the other XMPP clients will not
trigger a scan. If the client whose UUID is expected responds to the push
request, it'll work, but when that client is offline, we're SOL.
Converted several threads to run in the monad.
Added a lot of useful combinators for working with the monad.
Now the monad includes the name of the thread.
Some debugging messages are disabled pending converting other threads.
Monitors git-annex branch for changes, which are noticed by the Merger
thread whenever the branch ref is changed (either due to an incoming push,
or a local change), and refreshes cached config values for modified config
files.
Rate limited to run no more often than once per minute. This is important
because frequent git-annex branch changes happen when files are being
added, or transferred, etc.
A primary use case is that, when preferred content changes are made,
and get pushed to remotes, the remotes start honoring those settings.
Other use cases include propigating repository description and trust
changes to remotes, and learning when a remote has added a new special
remote, so the webapp can present the GUI to enable that special remote
locally.
Also added a uuid.log cache. All other config files already had caches.
I was seeing some interesting crashes after the previous commit,
when making file changes slightly faster than the assistant could keep up.
error: Ref refs/heads/master is at 7074f8e0a11110c532d06746e334f2fec6af6ab4 but expected 95ea86008d72a40d97a81cfc8fb47a0da92166bd
fatal: cannot lock HEAD ref
Committer crashed: git commit [Param "--allow-empty-message",Param "-m",Param "",Param "--allow-empty",Param "--quiet"] failed
Pusher crashed: thread blocked indefinitely in an STM transaction
Clearly the the merger ended up running at the same time as the committer,
and with both modifying HEAD the committer crashed. I fixed that by
making the Merger run its merge inside the annex monad, which avoids
it running concurrently with other git operations. Also by making
the committer not crash if git fails.
What I don't understand is why the pusher then crashed with a STM deadlock.
That must be in either the DaemonStatusHandle or the FailedPushMap,
and the latter is only used by the pusher. Did the committer's crash somehow
break STM?
The BlockedIndefinitelyOnSTM exception is described as:
-- |The thread is waiting to retry an STM transaction, but there are no
-- other references to any @TVar@s involved, so it can't ever continue.
If the Committer had a reference to a TVar and crashed, I can sort of see
this leading to that exception..
The crash was quite easy to reproduce after the previous commit, but
after making the above change, I have yet to see it again. Here's hoping.
Now when a download is queued and there's no known remote to get it from,
it's added to a deferred download list, which will be retried later.
The Merger thread tries to queue any deferred downloads when it receives
a push to the git-annex branch.
Note that the Merger thread now also forces an update of the git-annex
branch. The assistant was not updating this branch before, and it saw a
(mostly) correct view of state, but now that incoming pushes go to
synced/git-annex, it needs to be merged in.
Don't expose these as branches in refs/heads/. Instead hide them away in
refs/synced/ where only show-ref will find them.
Make unused only look at branches and tags, not these other things,
so it won't care if some stale sync ref used to use a file.
This means they don't need to be deleted, which could have
led to an incoming sync being missed.
The fallback branches pushed to contain the uuid of the pusher, which is
ugly. That's why syncing doesn't normally use this method.
The merger deletes fallback branches after merging them, to contain the
ugliness, and so unused doesn't look at data from these branches.
(The fallback git-annex branch is left behind for now.)
