Each command that first checks preferred content (and/or required
content) and then does something that can change the sizes of
repositories needs to call prepareLiveUpdate, and plumb it through the
preferred content check and the location log update.
So far, only Command.Drop is done. Many other commands that don't need
to do this have been updated to keep working.
There may be some calls to NoLiveUpdate in places where that should be
done. All will need to be double checked.
Not currently in a compilable state.
The use of catObjectStream is optimally fast. Although it might be
possible to combine this with git-annex branch merge to avoid some
redundant work.
Benchmarking, a git-annex branch that had 100000 files changed
took less than 1.88 seconds to run through this.
