Converted warning and similar to use StringContainingQuotedPath. Most
warnings are static strings, some do refer to filepaths that need to be
quoted, and others don't need quoting.
Note that, since quote filters out control characters of even
UnquotedString, this makes all warnings safe, even when an attacker
sneaks in a control character in some other way.
When json is being output, no quoting is done, since json gets its own
quoting.
This does, as a side effect, make warning messages in json output not
be indented. The indentation is only needed to offset warning messages
underneath the display of the file they apply to, so that's ok.

giveup changed to filter out control characters. (It is too low level to
make it use StringContainingQuotedPath.)
error still does not, but it should only be used for internal errors,
where the message is not attacker-controlled.
Changed a lot of existing error to giveup when it is not strictly an
internal error.
Of course, other exceptions can still be thrown, either by code in
git-annex, or a library, that include some attacker-controlled value.
This does not guard against those.

Such an url is not valid; parseURI will fail on it. But git-annex doesn't
actually need to parse the url, because all it needs to do to support
syncing with it is know that it's not a local path, and use git pull and
push.
(Note that there is no good reason for the user to use such an url. An
absolute url is valid and I patched git-remote-gcrypt to support them
years ago. Still, users gonna do anything that tools allow, and
git-remote-gcrypt still supports them.)

Note that when this is specified and an older git-annex is used to
enableremote such a special remote, it will simply ignore the cost= field
and use whatever the default cost is.
In passing, fixed adb to support the remote.name.cost and
remote.name.cost-command configs.

This should not change the behavior of it, unless there are multiple top
directories, and then it should behave the same as if there was a single
top directory that was actually above the directory to be created.

rsync 3.2.4 broke backwards-compatability by preventing exposing filenames
to the shell. Made the rsync and gcrypt special remotes detect this and
disable shellescape.
An alternative fix would have been to always set RSYNC_OLD_ARGS=1.
Which would avoid the overhead of probing rsync --help for each affected
remote. But that is really very fast to run, and it seemed better to switch
to the modern code path rather than keeping on using the bad old code path.

* Removed support for accessing git remotes that use versions of
git-annex older than 6.20180312.
* git-annex-shell: Removed several commands that were only needed to
support git-annex versions older than 6.20180312.
(lockcontent, recvkey, sendkey, transferinfo, commit)
The P2P protocol was added in that version, and used ever since, so
this code was only needed for interop with older versions.
"git-annex-shell commit" is used by newer git-annex versions, though
unnecessarily so, because the p2pstdio command makes a single commit at
shutdown. Luckily, it was run with stderr and stdout sent to /dev/null,
and non-zero exit status or other exceptions are caught and ignored. So,
that was able to be removed from git-annex-shell too.
git-annex-shell inannex, recvkey, sendkey, and dropkey are still used by
gcrypt special remotes accessed over ssh, so those had to be kept.
It would probably be possible to convert that to using the P2P protocol,
but it would be another multi-year transition.
Some git-annex-shell fields were able to be removed. I hoped to remove
all of them, and the very concept of them, but unfortunately autoinit
is used by git-annex sync, and gcrypt uses remoteuuid.
The main win here is really in Remote.Git, removing piles of hairy fallback
code.

Added fileRetriever', which will let the remaining special remotes
eventually also support incremental verify.
Sponsored-by: Dartmouth College's DANDI project
It uses tailVerify to hash the file while it's being written.
This is able to sometimes avoid a separate checksum step. Although
if the file gets written quickly enough, tailVerify may not see it
get created before the write finishes, and the checksum still happens.
Testing with the directory special remote, incremental checksumming did
not happen. But then I disabled the copy CoW probing, and it did work.
What's going on with that is the CoW probe creates an empty file on
failure, then deletes it, and then the file is created again. tailVerify
will open the first, empty file, and so fails to read the content that
gets written to the file that replaces it.
The directory special remote really ought to be able to avoid needing to
use tailVerify, and while other special remotes could do things that
cause similar problems, they probably don't. And if they do, it just
means the checksum doesn't get done incrementally.

Several special remotes verify content while it is being retrieved,
avoiding a separate checksum pass. They are: S3, bup, ddar, and
gcrypt (with a local repository).
Not done when using chunking, yet.
Complicated by Retriever needing to change to be polymorphic. Which in turn
meant RankNTypes is needed, and also needed some code changes. The
change in Remote.External does not change behavior at all but avoids
the type checking failing because of a "rigid, skolem type" which
"would escape its scope". So I refactored slightly to make the type
checker's job easier there.
Unfortunately, directory uses fileRetriever (except when chunked),
so it is not amoung the improved ones. Fixing that would need a way for
FileRetriever to return a Verification. But, since the file retrieved
may be encrypted or chunked, it would be extra work to always
incrementally checksum the file while retrieving it. Hm.
Some other special remotes use fileRetriever, and so don't get incremental
verification, but could be converted to byteRetriever later. One is
GitLFS, which uses downloadConduit, which writes to the file, so could
verify as it goes. Other special remotes like web could too, but don't
use Remote.Helper.Special and so will need to be addressed separately.

This eliminates the distinction between decodeBS and decodeBS', encodeBS
and encodeBS', etc. The old implementation truncated at NUL, and the
primed versions had to do extra work to avoid that problem. The new
implementation does not truncate at NUL, and is also a lot faster.
(Benchmarked at 2x faster for decodeBS and 3x for encodeBS; more for the
primed versions.)
Note that filepath-bytestring 1.4.2.1.8 contains the same optimisation,
and upgrading to it will speed up to/fromRawFilePath.
AFAIK, nothing relied on the old behavior of truncating at NUL. Some
code used the faster versions in places where I was sure there would not
be a NUL. So this change is unlikely to break anything.
Also, moved s2w8 and w82s out of the module, as they do not involve
filesystem encoding really.

This fixes fsck of a remote that uses chunking displaying
(checking remotename) (checking remotename)" for every chunk.
Also, some remotes displayed the message, and others did not, with no
consistency. It was originally displayed only when accessing remotes
that were expensive or might involve a password prompt, I think, but
nothing in the API said when to do it so it became an inconsistent mess.
Originally I thought fsck should always display it. But it only displays
in fsck --from remote, so the user knows the remote is being accessed,
so there is no reason to tell them it's accessing it over and over.
It was also possible for git-annex move to sometimes display it twice,
due to checking if content is present twice. But, the user of move
specifies --from/--to, so it does not need to display when it's
accessing the remote, as the user expects it to access the remote.
git-annex get might display it, but only if the remote also supports
hasKeyCheap, which is really only local git remotes, which didn't
display it always; and in any case nothing displayed it before hasKeyCheap,
which is checked first, so I don't think this needs to display it ever.
mirror is like move. And that's all the main places it would have been
displayed.

Which access a remote using rsync over ssh, and which git pushes to much
more efficiently than ssh urls.
There was some old partial support for rsync URIs from 2013, but it seemed
incomplete, and did not use rsync over ssh. Weird.
I'm not sure if there's any remaining benefit to using the non-rsync url
forms with gcrypt, now that this is implemented? Updated docs to encourage
using the rsync urls.
This commit was sponsored by Svenne Krap on Patreon.
Including the non-standard URI form that git-remote-gcrypt uses for rsync.
Eg, "ook://foo:bar" cannot be parsed because "bar" is not a valid port
number. But git could have a remote with that, it would try to run
git-remote-ook to handle it. So, git-annex has to allow for such things,
rather than crashing.

This is to support, eg a borg repo as a special remote, which is
populated not by running git-annex commands, but by using borg. Then
git-annex sync lists the content of the remote, learns which files are
annex objects, and treats those as present in the remote.
So, most of the import machinery is reused, to a new purpose. While
normally importtree maintains a remote tracking branch, this does not,
because the files stored in the remote are annex object files, not
user-visible filenames. But, internally, a git tree is still generated,
of the files on the remote that are annex objects. This tree is used
by retrieveExportWithContentIdentifier, etc. As with other import/export
remotes, that the tree is recorded in the export log, and gets grafted
into the git-annex branch.
importKey changed to be able to return Nothing, to indicate when an
ImportLocation is not an annex object and so should be skipped from
being included in the tree.
It did not seem to make sense to have git-annex import do this, since
from the user's perspective, it's not like other imports. So only
git-annex sync does it.
Note that, git-annex sync does not yet download objects from such
remotes that are preferred content. importKeys is run with
content downloading disabled, to avoid getting the content of all
objects. Perhaps what's needed is for seekSyncContent to be run with these
remotes, but I don't know if it will just work (in particular, it needs
to avoid trying to transfer objects to them), so I skipped that for now.
(Untested and unused as of yet.)

When storing content on remote fails, always display a reason why.
Since the Storer used by special remotes already did, this mostly affects
git remotes, but not entirely. For example, if git-lfs failed to connect to
the endpoint, it used to silently return False.
That had almost no benefit at all, and complicated things quite a lot.
What I proably wanted this to be was something like ResourceT, but it
was not. The few remotes that actually need some preparation done only
once and reused used a MVar and not Preparer.
Git has an obnoxious special case in git config, a line "foo" is the same
as "foo = true". That means there is no way to examine the output of
git config and tell if it was run with --null or not, since a "foo"
in the first line could be such a boolean, or could be followed by its
value on the next line if --null were used.
So, rather than trying to do such a detection, track the style of config
at all the points where it's generated.
Remaining things needing converted are in the assistant, and Annex.Ssh.
Every other remaining call to createDirectoryIfMissing True has been
audited and is not relevant. The ones in Build/ of course don't get
included in the program. Others included eg, Remote.Tahoe and
Config.Files which both write to dotfiles under the home directory.
Fix serious regression in gcrypt and encrypted git-lfs remotes.
Since version 7.20200202.7, git-annex incorrectly stored content
on those remotes without encrypting it.
Problem was, Remote.Git enumerates all git remotes, including git-lfs
and gcrypt. It then dispatches to those. So, Remote.List used the
RemoteConfigParser from Remote.Git, instead of from git-lfs or gcrypt,
and that parser does not know about encryption fields, so did not
include them in the ParsedRemoteConfig. (Also didn't include other
fields specific to those remotes, perhaps chunking etc also didn't
get through.)
To fix, had to move RemoteConfig parsing down into the generate methods
of each remote, rather than doing it in Remote.List.
And a consequence of that was that ParsedRemoteConfig had to change to
include the RemoteConfig that got parsed, so that testremote can
generate a new remote based on an existing remote.
(I would have rather fixed this just inside Remote.Git, but that was not
practical, at least not w/o re-doing work that Remote.List already did.
Big ugly mostly mechanical patch seemed preferable to making git-annex
slower.)
remoteAnnexConfig will avoid bugs like
a3a674d15b
Use now more generic remoteConfig in a couple places that built
non-annex config settings manually before.
Rather than leaking the name of the temp file, just say the config parse
failed, and where the config was downloaded from.
Not closing the bug report because two issues were reported in the same
bug report, because the universe wants me to continually re-read old
unclosed bug reports to waste my time determining what still needs to be
done.
Special remote programs that use GETCONFIG/SETCONFIG are recommended
to implement it.
The description is not yet used, but will be useful later when adding a way
to make initremote list all accepted configs.
configParser now takes a RemoteConfig parameter. Normally, that's not
needed, because configParser returns a parter, it does not parse it
itself. But, it's needed to look at externaltype and work out what
external remote program to run for LISTCONFIGS.
Note that, while externalUUID is changed to a Maybe UUID, checkExportSupported
used to use NoUUID. The code that now checks for Nothing used to behave
in some undefined way if the external program made requests that
triggered it.
Also, note that in externalSetup, once it generates external,
it parses the RemoteConfig strictly. That generates a
ParsedRemoteConfig, which is thrown away. The reason it's ok to throw
that away, is that, if the strict parse succeeded, the result must be
the same as the earlier, lenient parse.
initremote of an external special remote now runs the program three
times. First for LISTCONFIGS, then EXPORTSUPPORTED, and again
LISTCONFIGS+INITREMOTE. It would not be hard to eliminate at least
one of those, and it should be possible to only run the program once.
Needed so Remote.External can query the external program for its
configs. When the external program does not support the query,
the passthrough option will make all input fields be available.
This is a first step toward that goal, using the ProposedAccepted type
in RemoteConfig lets initremote/enableremote reject bad parameters that
were passed in a remote's configuration, while avoiding enableremote
rejecting bad parameters that have already been stored in remote.log
This does not eliminate every place where a remote config is parsed and a
default value is used if the parse false. But, I did fix several
things that expected foo=yes/no and so confusingly accepted foo=true but
treated it like foo=no. There are still some fields that are parsed with
yesNo but not not checked when initializing a remote, and there are other
fields that are parsed in other ways and not checked when initializing a
remote.
This also lays groundwork for rejecting unknown/typoed config keys.
Remove dup definitions and just use the RawFilePath one. </> etc are
enough faster that it's probably faster than building a String directly,
although I have not benchmarked.
git-annex find is now RawFilePath end to end, no string conversions.
So is git-annex get when it does not need to get anything.
So this is a major milestone on optimisation.
Benchmarks indicate around 30% speedup in both commands.
Probably many other performance improvements. All or nearly all places
where a file is statted use RawFilePath now.
The parser and looking up config keys in the map should both be faster
due to using ByteString.
I had hoped this would speed up startup time, but any improvement to
that was too small to measure. Seems worth keeping though.
Note that the parser breaks up the ByteString, but a config map ends up
pointing to the config as read, which is retained in memory until every
value from it is no longer used. This can change memory usage
patterns marginally, but won't affect git-annex.
warningIO is not concurrent output safe, and it doesn't go to
--json-error-messages
There are a few more that would be too hard to remove, and there are also
several dozen direct prints to stderr still.
This solves the problem of sameas remotes trampling over per-remote
state. Used for:
* per-remote state, of course
* per-remote metadata, also of course
* per-remote content identifiers, because two remote implementations
could in theory generate the same content identifier for two different
peices of content
While chunk logs are per-remote data, they don't use this, because the
number and size of chunks stored is a common property across sameas
remotes.
External special remote had a complication, where it was theoretically
possible for a remote to send SETSTATE or GETSTATE during INITREMOTE or
EXPORTSUPPORTED. Since the uuid of the remote is typically generate in
Remote.setup, it would only be possible to pass a Maybe
RemoteStateHandle into it, and it would otherwise have to construct its
own. Rather than go that route, I decided to send an ERROR in this case.
It seems unlikely that any existing external special remote will be
affected. They would have to make up a git-annex key, and set state for
some reason during INITREMOTE. I can imagine such a hack, but it doesn't
seem worth complicating the code in such an ugly way to support it.
Unfortunately, both TestRemote and Annex.Import needed the Remote
to have a new field added that holds its RemoteStateHandle.
Avoid a delay at startup when concurrency is enabled and there are
rsync or gcrypt special remotes, which was caused by git-annex
opening a ssh connection to the remote too early.
sshOptions makes a connection to the ssh server if one is not already open,
when concurrency is enabled. Avoid doing that at startup, when the remote
list is being built, but the remote may not be used at all.
Instead, rsync/gcrypt now runs sshOptions once per ssh connection to the
server. This should not be significant overhead since Remote.Git already
has the same overhead (as do Bup and Ddar).
