This handles cases where a single key is used by multiple files in the
exported tree. When using `git-annex push`, the key's content gets
stored in the annexobjects location, and then when the branch is pushed,
it gets renamed from the annexobjects location to the first exported
file. For subsequent exported files, a copy of the content needs to be
made. This causes it to download the key from the remote in order to
upload another copy to it.
This is not needed when using `git push` followed by `git-annex copy --to`
the proxied remote, because the received key is stored at all export
locations then.
Also, fixed handling of the synced branch push, it was exporting master
when synced/master was pushed.
Note that currently, the first push to the remote does not see that it
is able to get a key from it in order to upload it back. It displays
"(not available)". The second push is able to. Since git-annex push
pushes first the synced branch and then the branch, this does end up
with a full export being made, but it is not quite right.
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some other repository to have an out of date location log that says the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.
Since git-annex sync sends the sync branch first, and only displays the
output of the push to the sync branch, this makes git-annex
post-retrieve's output when updating the exported tree be visible when
syncing.
This also makes syncing with a non-bare repository still update the
exported tree, even when the checked out branch is not able to be
updated. The sync branch gets sent regardless.
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.
sync, merge, post-receive: Avoid merging unrelated histories, which used to
be allowed only to support direct mode repositories.
(However, sync does still merge unrelated histories when importing trees
from special remotes, and the assistant still merges unrelated histories
always.)
See 556b2ded2b for why this was added
back in 2016, for direct mode.
This is a behavior change, which might break something that was relying
on sync merging unrelated histories, but git had a good reason to
prevent it, since it's easy to foot shoot with it, and git-annex should
follow suit.

* sync: When --quiet is used, run git commit, push, and pull without
their ususual output.
* merge: When --quiet is used, run git merge without its usual output.
This might also make --quiet work better for some other commands
that make commits, like git-annex adjust.

* Added sync --only-annex, which syncs the git-annex branch and annexed
content but leaves managing the other git branches up to you.
* Added annex.synconlyannex git config setting, which can also be set with
git-annex config to configure sync in all clones of the repo.
Use case is then the user has their own git workflow, and wants to use
git-annex without disrupting that, so they sync --only-annex to get the
git-annex stuff in sync in addition to their usual git workflow.
When annex.synconlyannex is set, --not-only-annex can be used to override
it.
It's not entirely clear what --only-annex --commit or --only-annex
--push should do, and I left that combination not documented because I
don't know if I might want to change the current behavior, which is that
such options do not override the --only-annex. My gut feeling is that
there is no good reasons to use such combinations; if you want to use
your own git workflow, you'll be doing your own committing and pulling
and pushing.
A subtle question is, how should import/export special remotes be handled?
Importing updates their remote tracking branch and merges it into master.
If --only-annex prevented that git branch stuff, then it would prevent
exporting to the special remote, in the case where it has changes that
were not imported yet, because there would be a unresolved conflict.
I decided that it's best to treat the fact that there's a remote tracking
branch for import/export as an implementation detail in this case. The more
important thing is that an import/export special remote is entirely annexed
content, and so it makes a lot of sense that --only-annex will still sync
with it.
Adds a dependency on filepath-bytestring, an as yet unreleased fork of
filepath that operates on RawFilePath.
Git.Repo also changed to use RawFilePath for the path to the repo.
This does eliminate some RawFilePath -> FilePath -> RawFilePath
conversions. And filepath-bytestring's </> is probably faster.
But I don't expect a major performance improvement from this.
This is mostly groundwork for making Annex.Location use RawFilePath,
which will allow for a conversion-free pipleline.
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.

* 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 was noticed because it broke the datalad test suite, which pushed
to the remote and then fetched to check if it had received the expected
branches. Auto-init caused the git-annex branch on the remote to
diverge, breaking that test.
https://github.com/datalad/datalad/issues/1319#issuecomment-281649518
The auto-init still happens, it's staged in the journal, and will be
commited by some later git-annex command when it runs. Which is fine,
it's the same as that later command doing the auto-init.

sync: When syncing with a local repository located on a crippled
filesystem, run the post-receive hook there, since it wouldn't get run
otherwise. This makes pushing to repos on FAT-formatted removable drives
update them when receive.denyCurrentBranch=updateInstead.
Made Remote.Git export onLocal, which was cleaned up to not have so many
caveats about its use.
This commit was sponsored by Jeff Goeke-Smith on Patreon.
* Added post-recieve hook, which makes updateInstead work with direct
mode and adjusted branches.
* init: Set up the post-receive hook.
