As far as I can see, git-annex status was added to support direct mode, and
like other things added for that, it ought to be deprecated.
Behavior is similar to git status --short, though not identical in a few
cases eg renamed files.
I think datalad does not use this command, although it might have in the
past. Could not find any use of it in the current datalad code.
A deprecation warning at runtime would be the next step, probably will wait
and do that for all the deprecated commands together (except findref).
Well, perhaps it could be documented better, but it's a compositional
feature so users who need it will probably try it and be happy to find
that it works.
I had thought this would not make sense to combine with view branches,
since removing files from a view changes metadata.
However, that's committing removal of files. With --hide-missing, the
files get removed when git-annex updates the branch itself, so there is
no conflict.
It does not seem likely to be very useful, but it does work! And that's
nice because it means all types of adjusted branches can be combined with
view branches.

When generating the view, check if the key is present.
When syncing in a view branch with an adjustment, run adjustedBranchRefreshFull
the same as is done when syncing in other adjusted branches. This is
needed because the docs for git-annex adjust --unlock-present suggest
using git-annex sync to update the branch when annex.adjustedbranchrefresh
is not set.
Note that, with annex.adjustedbranchrefresh set, it just works! The
adjusted branch gets updated in the usual way and it doesn't matter that
there's a view branch underneath.
And of course, re-running git-annex adjut --unlock-present also works,
as suggested in the docs.

This reverts commit 648e59cac2.
Failed to build on windows, because
In the dependencies for haskeline-0.8.2:
Win32-2.11.1.0 from Stack configuration does not match >=2.1 && <2.10 || >=2.12 (latest
matching version is 2.13.4.0)
jkniiv did find a solution that builds:
-- Win32-2.11.1.0
+- Win32-2.9.0.0
+- Cabal-3.6.3.0
+- directory-1.3.7.1
+- process-1.6.17.0
+- time-1.11.1.2
But that is a quite old version of Win32 and risks bugs from it, and bumping
Cabal and directory to newer than lts-19.33 has seems also likely to be risky.
So, I've given up. aws-0.24 won't be able to be in the stack build until
there's a stackage lts (or nightly) that has filepath (>=1.4.100.0),
which will not happen until sometime after the next ghc release.
