These were a mistake, they make the type signatures harder to read and
less flexible. The CommandSeek, CommandStart, CommandPerform, and
CommandCleanup types were a good idea, but composing them with the
parameters expected is going too far.
get, drop: Added --auto option, which decides whether to get/drop content
as needed to work toward the configured numcopies.
The problem with bundling it up in optimize was that I then found I wanted
to run an optmize that did not drop files, only got them. Considered adding
a --only-get switch to it, but that seemed wrong. Instead, let's make
existing subcommands optionally smarter.
Note that the only actual difference between drop and drop --auto is that
the latter does not even try to drop a file if it knows of not enough
copies, and does not print any error messages about files it was unable to
drop.
It might be nice to make get avoid asking git for attributes when not in
auto mode. For now it always asks for attributes.
The space leak was somehow caused by this line:
absfiles <- mapM absPath files
I confess, I don't quite understand why this caused bad buffering,
but apparently the whole pipeline from git-ls-files backed up at that
point.
Happily, rewriting the code to only get the cwd once and use a pure
function to calculate absfiles clears it up, and should be a little more
efficient in syscalls too.
It compiles. It sorta works. Several subcommands are FIXME marked and
broken, because things that used to accept separate --backend and --key
params need to be changed to accept just a --key that encodes all the key
info, now that there is metadata in keys.
Rename Locations functions for better consitency, and make their values
more consistent too.
Used </> rather than manually building paths. There are still more places
that manually do so, but are tricky, due to the behavior of </> when
the second FilePath is absolute. So I only changed places where
it obviously was relative.
Moved away from a map of flags to storing config directly in the AnnexState
structure. Got rid of most accessor functions in Annex.
This allowed supporting multiple --exclude flags.
