Assistant: Integrate with Termux:Boot, so when it's installed, the
assistant is autostarted on boot.
This commit was sponsored by Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. on Patreon.
Added some tweaks to make git-annex work in termux on Android. The regular
arm standalone tarball now works in termux.
I guess the test for "$base/bin/git" is not really necessary, since it
tests for git-annex. Since that gets deleted on android, removed that test.
These are pretty hackish hacks, especially adding it to PATH. The goal is
to make it work well enough out of the box on Android.

Preloaded libraries from the host system may not get along with the bundled
linker.
This was observed by users in termux:
ERROR: ld.so: object '/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/libtermux-exec.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class:
ELFCLASS64): ignored.
Bad system call
But it could also affect more usual systems; the preloaded library might rely
on symbols from the host libc that are not available or have the wrong versions
in the bundled libc. Unsetting LD_PRELOAD entirely seems safest.
As long as all code imports Utility.Aeson rather than Data.Aeson,
and no Strings that may contain utf-8 characters are used for eg, object
keys via T.pack, this is guaranteed to fix the problem everywhere that
git-annex generates json.
It's kind of annoying to need to wrap ToJSON with a ToJSON', especially
since every data type that has a ToJSON instance has to be ported over.
However, that only took 50 lines of code, which is worth it to ensure full
coverage. I initially tried an alternative approach of a newtype FileEncoded,
which had to be used everywhere a String was fed into aeson, and chasing
down all the sites would have been far too hard. Did consider creating an
intentionally overlapping instance ToJSON String, and letting ghc fail
to build anything that passed in a String, but am not sure that wouldn't
pollute some library that git-annex depends on that happens to use ToJSON
String internally.

move: Added --safe option, which makes move honor numcopies settings.
Also --unsafe enables the default behavior, anticipating that the

* For url downloads, git-annex now defaults to using a http library,
rather than wget or curl. But, if annex.web-options is set, it will
use curl. To use the .netrc file, run:
git config annex.web-options --netrc
* git-annex no longer uses wget (and wget is no longer shipped with
git-annex builds).
Note that curl is always run in silent mode, since the new API for
download has a MeterUpdate and doesn't make way for curl progress
output. It might be worth writing a parser for curl's progress output
to update the meter when using it, but I didn't bother with this edge
case for now.

I feel that the former is a jumbled mess that doesn't tell much overall,
while the second shows pretty clearly that most files are within 1 degree
of the desired number of copies, with some outliers without enough.
Enable HTTP connection reuse across multiple files, when git-annex
uses http-conduit. Before, a new Manager was created each time
Utility.Url used it. Now, a single Manager gets created the first time,
so connections are reused.
Doesn't help when external programs are used for url download,
but does speed up addurl --fast, fsck --from web, etc.
Testing fsck --fast --from web with 3 files, over high-latency
satellite internet, it sped up from 19.37s to 14.96s.

When adding a new version of a file, and annex.genmetadata is enabled,
don't copy the data metadata from the old version of the file, instead use
the mtime of the file. Rationalle being that the user has requested to
generate metadata and so would expect to get the new mtime into metadata.
Also, avoid warning about copying metadata when all the old metadata is
date metadata. Which was rather the harder part.

I think this used to be the case, but it was accidentially lost way back in
commit 3887432c54. Normally, transfers do not
throw exceptions, so probably forward retrying was rarely done due to that
oversight.
This also affects the new annex.retry etc configuration. If a transfer
fails, without making any progress, eg because the file is not present on
the remote or the remote is not accessible, it will now retry when
configuration calls for it. In some cases such a retry is not desirable,
for example the remote could be accessible and not have a copy of the file
that the local repo thinks it has. I see no way to distinguish such cases
from cases where a retry should really be done. So, it'll be up to the user
to configure it to work for them.
Added annex.retry, annex.retry-delay, and per-remote versions to configure
transfer retries.

git annex testremote passes.
exportree not implemented yet, although the documentation talks about it,
since it will be the main way this remote will be used.
The adb push/pull progress is displayed for now; it would be better
to consume it and use it to update the git-annex progress bar.

Fix race condition in ssh warmup that caused git-annex to get stuck and
never process some while when run with high levels of concurrency.
So far, I've isolated the problem to processTranscript, which hangs
reading output from ssh in this situation. I don't yet understand why
processTranscript behaves that way.
Since here we don't care about the ssh output, and only want to /dev/null
it, changed to not use processTranscript, avoiding its problem.

Avoid creating transfer info file before transfer lock is created and
locked.
The wrong order for one thing caused transfer info to be overwritten
when a transfer was already in progress.
But worse, it caused checkTransfer to see the transfer info,
and so lock the transfer lock in order to verify the transfer was not in
progress. Which in a concurrent situation, prevented the transferrer
from locking the transfer lock, so it failed with "transfer already in
progress".
Note that the transferinfo command does not lock the transfer lock
before creating the transfer info. But, that's only run after
recvkey is running, and recvkey does lock the transfer lock, so that
seems more or less ok. (Other than being a super complicated legacy mess
that the P2P code has mostly obsoleted now.)

There are a lot of different variants and sizes, I suppose we might as well
export all the common ones.
Bump dep to cryptonite to 0.16, earlier versions lacked BLAKE2 support.

When resuming a download and not using a rolling checksummer like rsync,
the partial file we start with might contain garbage, in the case where a
file changed as it was being downloaded. So, disabling verification on
resumes risked a bad object being put into the annex.
Even downloads with rsync are currently affected. It didn't seem worth the
added complexity to special case those to prevent verification, especially
since git-annex is using rsync less often now.

When git-annex-shell p2pstdio fails with 255, it's because the ssh
server is not reachable. Avoid running the fallback action in this case,
since it would just try a second time to connect, and presumably fail.
Note that the closed P2PSshConnection will not be stored in the pool,
so the next request tries again to connect. This is just the right
behavior; when the remote becomes reachable again, the same git-annex
process will start using it.

Note that, due to not using rsync to transfer files to ssh remotes
any longer, permissions and other file metadata of annexed files
will no longer be preserved when copying them to ssh remotes.
Other remotes never supported preserving that information, so
this is not considered a regression. Added NEWS item about this.
Another significant side effect of this is that, even when rsync is run to
retrieve a file, its progress display will no longer be shown, and
instead the native git-annex progress display will appear. It would be
possible to use the rsync process display when rsync is used (old
git-annex-shell and also retrieval from a local repository), but it
would have complicated the code unncessarily, and been inconsistent
behavior.
(I'd been thinking for a while about eliminating the rsync progress
display, since it's got some annoying verbosities, including display of
the key and the "(xfr#1, to-chk=0/1)" bit and was already somewhat
inconsistent.)
retrieveKeyFileCheap still uses rsync, since that ensures that it gets
the actual file content from the remote. Using the P2P protocol would
use the local content, as long as the local and remote size are the
same.

Remote/Git.hs now contains AGPL licensed code, thus the license
of git-annex as a whole is AGPL. This was already the case when git-annex
was built with the webapp enabled.
The AGPL license will apply to all code added to Remote/Git.hs in the
future, which is going to include support for using
`git-annex-shell p2pstdio`.
Not yet used by git-annex, but this will allow faster transfers etc than
using individual ssh connections and rsync.
Not called git-annex-shell p2p, because git-annex p2p does something
else and I don't want two subcommands with the same name between the two
for sanity reasons.

lockContentShared had a screwy caveat that it didn't verify that the content
was present when locking it, but in the most common case, eg indirect mode,
it failed to lock when the content is not present.
That led to a few callers forgetting to check inAnnex when using it,
but the potential data loss was unlikely to be noticed because it only
affected direct mode I think.
Fix data loss bug when the local repository uses direct mode, and a
locally modified file is dropped from a remote repsitory. The bug
caused the modified file to be counted as a copy of the original file.
(This is not a severe bug because in such a situation, dropping
from the remote and then modifying the file is allowed and has the same
end result.)
And, in content locking over tor, when the remote repository is
in direct mode, it neglected to check that the content was actually
present when locking it. This could cause git annex drop to remove
the only copy of a file when it thought the tor remote had a copy.
So, make lockContentShared do its own inAnnex check. This could perhaps
be optimised for direct mode, to avoid the check then, since locking
the content necessarily verifies it exists there, but I have not bothered
with that.

Do not treat parts of the filename that contain punctuation or other
non-alphanumeric characters as extensions. Before, such characters were
filtered out.
Note that in 45308ec78b "foo.ba__________r"
was munged to ".bar" and so incorrectly treated as an extension. That was
fixed by changing the filter order, but not allowing punctuation seems a
better fix.
This assumes that extensions containing punctuation are rare. "_" seems the
most likely character; I used it in ikiwiki "._comment" files. But I can't
recall seeing it anywhere else. It certianly seems that no commonly used
extensions contain punctuation. If git-annex doesn't treat "._comment"
as an extension, it's not likely to break software that expects to see that
extension like some software expects to see .epub or .mp3.

Prevent ghc and llc from running out of memory when optimising some
files.
Sean Whitton reported that doing this only in Test.hs was insufficient,
the build still OOMed by the time it got to Test.hs. He had earlier found
the build worked when these options are applied globally.
See https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14821 for why it needs -O1;
once that's fixed it may suffice to use "GHC-Options: -O2 -optlo-O2",
although it may also be that the -O1 prevents ghc from using/leaking
as much memory.
os(arm) should match armel, armhf, armeb, and arm.
It probably also matches arm64, somewhat unfortunately since arm64
systems probably tend to have more memory. See list of arches in

Renaming is not supported; it might be possible to use --fuzzy to get rsync
to notice the file is being renamed, but that is a bit ..fuzzy.
On the other hand, interrupted transfers of an exported file are resumed,
since rsync is great at that. Had to adjust the exporttree docs, which
said interrupted transfers would restart.
Note that remove no longer makes the empty directory dummy, instead
sending the top-level empty directory. This works just as well and I
noticed the dummy was unncessary when refactoring it into removeGeneric.
Verified that behavior of remove is not changed, and git annex
testremote does pass.

Makefile: Remove chrpath workaround for bug in cabal, which is no longer
needed.
https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/2717 says it uses RUNPATH instead
of RPATH now, but I don't even see that for statically linked libraries;
the bug with that appears to be fixed.
cabal-install version 1.24.0.2
compiled using version 1.24.2.0 of the Cabal library
I left the rpath removal using otool on OSX because those straight up
broke the linker, and I don't know if the OSX autobuilder is updated to
a new enough cabal to not need it.

Added annex.merge-annex-branches config setting which can be used to
disable automatic merge of git-annex branches.
I wonder if git-annex merge/sync/assistant should disable this
setting? Not sure yet, so have not done so. May be that users will not set
it in git config, but pass it via -c to commands that need it.
Checking the config setting adds a very small overhead, but it's
only checked once per command so should be insignificant.
