An oversight..
And with the work in progress proxy and cluster, there
can be additional remotes that are not listed in .git/config, but are
available. Making those more discoverable is another big benefit of
this.
Implementation was simple because it's equivilant to
--from=foo --to remote for each other remote, followed by
--to remote when there's a local copy.
(Or, in the edge case of --from-anywhere --to=here,
it's the same as --to=here.)
Note that, when the local repo does not have a copy,
fromToPerform gets it from a remote, sends it to the destination,
and drops the local copy. Another call to that for a second remote
will notice that the dest now has a copy, and simply drop from the
second remote, avoiding a second transfer.
Also note that, when numcopies doesn't allow dropping it from
everywhere, it will drop it from the cheapest remotes first
(maybe not ideal) up to more expensive remotes, and finally from the local
repo. So the local repo will generally end up holding a copy. Maybe not
ideal in all cases either, but it seems no worse to do that than to end up
with a copy undropped from a remote.
And I'm not entirely happy with the output, eg:
copy bigfile (from r3...) ok
copy bigfile ok
That makes sense if you think of the second line as being
the same as what is output by `git-annex copy bigfile --to bar`,
but it's less clear in this context. Maybe add "(from here...)"?
Also the --json output doesn't have a machine-readable field for
the "from" uuid, and maybe it should?

Currently it only displays explanations of options like --in and --copies.
In the future, it should explain preferred content expression evaluation
and other decisions.
The explanations of a few things could be better. In particular,
"standard" will just appear as-is (or as "!standard" if it doesn't
match), rather than explaining why the standard preferred content expression
for the group matches or not.
Currently as implemented, it goes to stdout, and so commands like
git-annex find that have custom output will not display --explain
information. Perhaps that should change, dunno.

This reverts commit a325524454.
Turns out this was predicated on an incorrect belief that json output
didn't already sometimes lack the "key" field. Since json output already
can when `giveup` was used, it seems unncessary to add a whole new
option for this.
Added a --json-exceptions option, which makes some exceptions be output in json.
The distinction is that --json-error-messages is for messages relating
to a particular ActionItem, while --json-exceptions is for messages that
are not, eg ones for a file that does not exist.
It's unfortunate that we need two switches with such a fine distinction
between them, but I'm worried about maintaining backwards compatability
in the json output, to avoid breaking anything that parses it, and this was
the way to make sure I didn't.
toplevelWarning is generally used for the latter kind of message. And
the other calls to toplevelWarning could be converted to showException. The
only possible gotcha is that if toplevelWarning is ever called after
starting acting on a file, it will add to the --json-error-messages of the
json displayed for that file and converting to showException would be a
behavior change. That seems unlikely, but I didn't convery everything to
avoid needing to satisfy myself it was not a concern.

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.

This serves two purposes. --remote=web bypasses other special remotes that
claim the url, same as addurl --raw. And, specifying some other remote
allows making sure that an url is claimed by the remote you expect,
which makes then using setpresentkey not be fragile.

Allowing --from and --to as an alternative to --from or --to
is hard to do with optparse-applicative!
The obvious approach of (pfrom <|> pto <|> pfromandto) does not work
when pfromandto uses the same option names as pfrom and pto do.
It compiles but the generated parser does not work for all desired
combinations.
Instead, have to parse optionally from and optionally to. When neither
is provided, the parser succeeds, but it's a result that can't be
handled. So, have to giveup after option parsing. There does not seem to
be a way to make an optparse-applicative Parser give up internally
either.
Also, need seek' because I first tried making fto be a where binding,
but that resulted in a hang when git-annex move was run without --from
or --to. I think because startConcurrency was not expecting the stages
value to contain an exception and so ended up blocking.

I've long been asked for `git-annex find --all` or something like that,
but pushed back on it because I feel that the command is analagous to
find(1) and so it would be surprising for it to list keys rather than
files. So instead, add a new findkeys subcommand.
Note that the use of withKeyOptions is rather strange because usually
that is used to fall back to --all rather than listing files, but here
it's made to default to --all like behavior and never list files.
A performance thing that could be improved is that withKeyOptions
always reads and caches location logs. But findkeys with no options does
not need them, so it could be made faster. That caching does speed up
options like --in though. This is really just a subset of a more general
performance thing that --all reads location logs sometimes unncessarily.
Anyway, it needs to read the location log in order to checkDead,
and it seems good that findkeys does skip dead keys.
Also, cleaned up comments on git-annex-find man page asking for --all
option.

Added --anything (and --nothing). Eg, git-annex find --anything will list
all annexed files whether or not the content is present. This is slightly
faster and clearer than --include=* or --exclude=*
While I can't imagine how --nothing will be used, preferred content
expressions already had anything and nothing, so might as well support both
as matching options as well.

This is intended for users who want to see what it would output in order to
eg, check if a file would be added to git or the annex. It is not intended
as a way for scripts to get information.

--backend is no longer a global option, and is only accepted by commands
that actually need it.
Three commands that used to support backend but don't any longer are
watch, webapp, and assistant. It would be possible to make them support it,
but I doubt anyone used the option with these. And in the case of webapp
and assistant, the option was handled inconsistently, only taking affect
when the command is run with an existing git-annex repo, not when it
creates a new one.
Also, renamed GlobalOption etc to AnnexOption. Because there are many
options of this type that are not actually global (any more) and get
added to commands that need them.

At this point I've checked all AnnexState values and these were all that
remained that could move.
Pity that Annex.repo can't move, but it gets modified sometimes..
A couple of AnnexState values are set by options and could be AnnexRead,
but happen to use Annex when being set.

Ignore annex.numcopies set to 0 in gitattributes or git config, or by
git-annex numcopies or by --numcopies, since that configuration would make
git-annex easily lose data. Same for mincopies.
This is a continuation of the work to make data only be able to be lost
when --force is used. It earlier led to the --trust option being disabled,
and similar reasoning applies here.
Most numcopies configs had docs that strongly discouraged setting it to 0
anyway. And I can't imagine a use case for setting to 0. Not that there
might not be one, but it's just so far from the intended use case of
git-annex, of managing and storing your data, that it does not seem like
it makes sense to cater to such a hypothetical use case, where any
git-annex drop can lose your data at any time.
Using a smart constructor makes sure every place avoids 0. Note that this
does mean that NumCopies is for the configured desired values, and not the
actual existing number of copies, which of course can be 0. The name
configuredNumCopies is used to make that clear.

When this option is not used, there should be effectively no added
overhead, thanks to the optimisation in
b3cd0cc6ba.
When an action fails on a file, the size of the file still counts toward
the size limit. This was necessary to support concurrency, but also
generally seems like the right choice.
Most commands that operate on annexed files support the option.
export and import do not, and I don't know if it would make sense for
export to.. Why would you want an incomplete export? sync doesn't, and
while it would be easy to make it support it for transferring files,
it's not clear if dropping files should also take the size limit into
account. Commands like add that don't operate on annexed files don't
support the option either.
Exiting 101 not yet implemented.

The normalisation of filenames turns out to be the tricky part here,
because the associated files coming out of the keys db may look like
"./foo/bar" or "../bar". For the former to match a glob like "foo/*",
it needs to be normalised.
Note that, on windows, normalise "./foo/bar" = "foo\\bar"
which a glob like "foo/*" won't match. So the glob is matched a second
time, on the toInternalGitPath, so allowing the user to provide a glob
with the slashes in either direction. However, this still won't support
some wacky edge cases like the user providing a glob of "foo/bar\\*"

If it's passed a ConfigKey such as annex.version, avoid returning
an empty remote name and return Nothing instead. Also, foo.bar.baz is
not treated as a remote named "bar".
Most of the changes here involve global option parsing: GlobalSetter
changed so it can both run an Annex action to set state, but can also
change the AnnexRead value, which is immutable once the Annex monad is
running.
That allowed a debugselector value to be added to AnnexRead, seeded
from the git config. The --debugfilter option's GlobalSetter then updates
the AnnexRead.
This improved GlobalSetter can later be used to move more stuff to
AnnexRead. Things that don't involve a git config will be easier to
move, and probably a *lot* of things can be moved eventually.
fastDebug, while implemented, is not used anywhere yet. But it should be
fast..
Since that can lead to data loss, which should never be enabled by an
option other than --force.
I suppose that using --trust was in some situation, safer than --force,
because it doesn't entirely disable checking for data loss, but only
disables checking involving data that is on the specified repository.
But it seems better to be able to say that data loss only happens with
--force.

This is conceptually very simple, just making a 1 that was hard coded be
exposed as a config option. The hard part was plumbing all that, and
dealing with complexities like reading it from git attributes at the
same time that numcopies is read.
Behavior change: When numcopies is set to 0, git-annex used to drop
content without requiring any copies. Now to get that (highly unsafe)
behavior, mincopies also needs to be set to 0. It seemed better to
remove that edge case, than complicate mincopies by ignoring it when
numcopies is 0.

It got broken in several ways by the streaming seeking optimisations
around version 8.20201007.
Moved time limit checking out of the matcher, which was a hack in the
first place. So everywhere that uses Limit.getMatcher needs to check
time limit. Well, almost everywhere. Command.Info uses it, but it does
not make sense to time limit getting info. And Command.MultiCast uses it
just to build up a list of files that then get passed to a command, so
it would never have hit the timeout in a useful way.
This implementation is a little more expensive when at time limit than
necessary, since it continues seeking only to discard everything after the
time limit. I did try making it close the file handles to force a faster
shutdown, but that didn't work and hung. Could certianly be improved
somehow, but seeking is probably not the expensive bit when a time limit
is hit, so this seems acceptable for now.
Always run Git.Config.store, so when the git config gets reloaded,
the override gets re-added to it, and changeGitRepo then calls extractGitConfig
on it and sees the annex.* settings from the override.
Remove any prior occurance of -c v and add it to the end. This way,
-c foo=1 -c foo=2 -c foo=1 will pass -c foo=1 to git, rather than -c foo=2
Note that, if git had some multiline config that got built up by
multiple -c's, this would not work still. But it never worked because
before the bug got fixed in the first place, the -c value was repeated
many times, so the multivalue thing would have been wrong. I don't think
-c can be used with multiline configs anyway, though git-config does
talk about them?
Avoid running a large number of git cat-file child processes when run with
a large -J value.
This implementation takes care to avoid adding any overhead to git-annex
when run without -J. When run with -J, there is a small bit of added
overhead, to manipulate the resource pool. That optimisation added a
fair bit of complexity.
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.
The 'fail' method has been moved to the 'MonadFail' class. I made the changes
so that the code still compiles with previous versions of 'base' that don't
have the new MonadFail class exported by Prelude yet.
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.
Drop support for building with ghc older than 8.4.4, and with older
versions of serveral haskell libraries than will be included in Debian 10.
The only remaining version ifdefs in the entire code base are now a couple
for aws!
This commit should only be merged after the Debian 10 release.
And perhaps it will need to wait longer than that; it would make
backporting new versions of git-annex to Debian 9 (stretch) which
has been actively happening as recently as this year.

Added the ability to run one job per CPU (core), by setting annex.jobs=cpus,
or using option --jobs=cpus or -Jcpus.
Built with future expansion in mind, including not defaulting matching on
Concurrency so more constructors can later be added, and using "cpu"
instead of "0".
