The `cabal install git-annex` doesn't install the man pages, and the
Makefile only installed the man pages as part of a full build/install.
So, I factored out the documentation parts of the Makefile.
git-annex (but not git-annex-shell) supports the git help.autocorrect
configuration setting, doing fuzzy matching using the restricted
Damerau-Levenshtein edit distance, just as git does. This adds a build
dependency on the haskell edit-distance library.
Add tuning, docs, etc.
Not sure if status is the right place to remote size.. perhaps unused
should report the size and also warn if it sees more keys than the bloom
filter allows?
This drops the >>! and >>? with the nice low fixity. IfElse does have
undocumented >>=>>! and >>=>>? operators, but I deem that too fishy.
Anyway, using whenM and unlessM is easier; I sometimes mixed the operators
up.
This includes a generic JSONStream library built on top of Text.JSON
(somewhat hackishly).
It would be possible to stream out a single json document describing
all actions, but it's probably better for consumers if they can expect
one json document per line, so I did it that way instead.
Output from external programs used for transferring files is not
currently hidden when outputting json, which probably makes it not very
useful there. This may be dealt with if there is demand for json
output for --get or --move to be parsable.
The version, status, and find subcommands have hand-crafted output and
don't do json. The whereis subcommand needs to be modified to produce
useful json.
This is substantially slower than using make, does not build or install
documentation, does not run the test suite, and is not particularly
recommended, but could be useful to some.
For HMAC, using the Data.Digest.Pure.SHA library. I have been avoiding
this library for checksumming generally, since it's (probably) not
as fast as external utilities, but it's fine to use it for HMAC.
So, it would be nicer to just use Cabal and take advantage
of its conditional compilation support. But, Cabal seems to
lack good support for a package with an internal library that is used by
multiple executables. It wants to build everything twice or more.
That's too slow for me.
Anyway, fairly soon, I expect to upgrade hS3 to a requirment, and I
can just revert this.
