Many functions took the repo as their first parameter. Changing it
consistently to be the last parameter allows doing some useful things with
currying, that reduce boilerplate.
In particular, g <- gitRepo is almost never needed now, instead
use inRepo to run an IO action in the repo, and fromRepo to get
a value from the repo.
This also provides more opportunities to use monadic and applicative
combinators.
Avoid ever using read to parse a non-haskell formatted input string.
show :: Key is arguably still show abuse, but displaying Keys as filenames
is just too useful to give up.
This was more complex than would be expected. unannex has to use git commit -a
since it's removing files from git; git commit filelist won't do.
Allow commands to be added to the Git queue that have no associated files,
and run such commands once.
The only remaining vestiage of backends is different types of keys. These
are still called "backends", mostly to avoid needing to change user interface
and configuration. But everything to do with storing keys in different
backends was gone; instead different types of remotes are used.
In the refactoring, lots of code was moved out of odd corners like
Backend.File, to closer to where it's used, like Command.Drop and
Command.Fsck. Quite a lot of dead code was removed. Several data structures
became simpler, which may result in better runtime efficiency. There should
be no user-visible changes.
Since the queue is flushed in between subcommand actions being run,
there should be no issues with actions that expect to queue up some stuff
and have it run after they do other stuff. So I didn't have to audit for
such assumptions.
Added a cheap way to query the size of a queue.
runQueueAt is not the default yet only because there may be some code that
expects to be able to queue some suff, do something else, and run the whole
queue at the end.
10240 is an arbitrary size for the queue. If we assume annexed
filenames are between 10 and 255 characters long, then the queue will
build up between 100kb and 2550kb long commands. The max command line
length on linux is somewhere above 20k, so this is a fairly good balance --
the queue will buffer only a few megabytes of stuff and a minimal number
of commands will be run by xargs.
Also, insert queue items strictly, this should save memory.
