This is to improve this case:
joey@darkstar:~/tmp/yyyy>git-annex trust
git-annex: no remote specified
The command does not need to be run with a remote, any repository name
will do, including eg "here".

In aeson 2.0, Text has been replaced by the Key type and HashMap by the
KeyMap interface. Accomodating this required adding some CPP in order to
still be able to compile with aeson < 2.0. The required changes were:
* Prevent Key from being re-exported by Utilities.Aeson, as it clashes
with git-annex's own Key type.
* Fix up convertion from String/Text to Key (or Text in aeson 1.*) in a
couple of places
* Import Data.Aeson.KeyMap instead of Data.HashMap.Strict, as they are
mostly API-compatible. insertWith needs to be replaced by unionWith,
however, as KeyMap lacks the former function.
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.

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 groundwork for using git-annex transferkeys to run transfers,
in order to allow stalled transfers to be interrupted and retried.
The new upload and download are closer to what git-annex transferkeys
does, so the plan is to make them use it.
Then things that were left using upload' and download' won't recover
from stalls. Notably, that includes import and export. But
at least get/move/copy will be able to. (Also the assistant hopefully,
but not yet.)

With some hints for the user for what to do.
Took care to avoid changing the json output. It would have been ok to add
the new separated lists to it, in addition to the old list, but I didn't
do that because I didn't see much point.
This is a fairly hard to understand situation for the user. Listing the
remotes should help them understand it a bit better.

Try to enable special remotes configured with autoenable=yes when git-annex
auto-initialization happens in a new clone of an existing repo. Previously,
git-annex init had to be explicitly run to enable them. That was a bit of a
wart of a special case for users to need to keep in mind.
Special remotes cannot display anything when autoenabled this way, to avoid
interfering with the output of git-annex query commands.
Any error messages will be hidden, and if it fails, nothing is displayed.
The user will realize the remote isn't enable when they try to use it,
and can run git-annex init manually then to try the autoenable again and
see what failed.
That seems like a reasonable approach, and it's less complicated than
communicating something across a pipe in order to display it as a side
message. Other reason not to do that is that, if the first command the
user runs is one like git-annex find that has machine readable output,
any message about autoenable failing would need to not be displayed anyway.
So better to not display a failure message ever, for consistency.
(Had to split out Remote.List.Util to avoid an import cycle.)
remoteAnnexConfig will avoid bugs like
a3a674d15b
Use now more generic remoteConfig in a couple places that built
non-annex config settings manually before.
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.
This does not change the overall license of the git-annex program, which
was already AGPL due to a number of sources files being AGPL already.
Legally speaking, I'm adding a new license under which these files are
now available; I already released their current contents under the GPL
license. Now they're dual licensed GPL and AGPL. However, I intend
for all my future changes to these files to only be released under the
AGPL license, and I won't be tracking the dual licensing status, so I'm
simply changing the license statement to say it's AGPL.
(In some cases, others wrote parts of the code of a file and released it
under the GPL; but in all cases I have contributed a significant portion
of the code in each file and it's that code that is getting the AGPL
license; the GPL license of other contributors allows combining with
AGPL code.)
This should make == comparison of UUIDs somewhat faster, and perhaps a
few other operations around maps of UUIDs etc.
FromUUID/ToUUID are used to convert String, which is still used for all
IO of UUIDs. Eventually the hope is those instances can be removed,
and all git-annex branch log files etc use ByteString throughout, for a
real speed improvement.
Note the use of fromRawFilePath / toRawFilePath -- while a UUID usually
contains only alphanumerics and so could be treated as ascii, it's
conceivable that some git-annex repository has been initialized using
a UUID that is not only not a canonical UUID, but contains high unicode
or invalid unicode. Using the filesystem encoding avoids any problems
with such a thing. However, a NUL in a UUID seems extremely unlikely,
so I didn't use encodeBS / decodeBS to avoid their extra overhead in
handling NULs.
The Read/Show instance for UUID luckily serializes the same way for
ByteString as it did for String.
Added remote.name.annex-speculate-present config that can be used to
make cache remotes.
Implemented it in Remote.keyPossibilities, which is used by the
get/move/copy/mirror commands, and nothing else. This way, things like
whereis will not show content that's speculatively present.
The assistant and sync --content were not using Remote.keyPossibilities,
and were changed to use it.
The efficiency hit should be small; Remote.keyPossibilities is only
used before transferring a file, which is the expensive operation.
And, it's only doing one lookup of the remoteList and a very cheap
filter over it.
Note that, git-annex still updates the location log when copying content
to a remote with annex-speculate-present set. In this case, the location
tracking will indicate that content is present in the remote. This may
not be wanted for caches, or may not be a real problem for them. TBD.

Leveraged the existing verification code by making it also check the
retrievalSecurityPolicy.
Also, prevented getViaTmp from running the download action at all when the
retrievalSecurityPolicy is going to prevent verifying and so storing it.
Added annex.security.allow-unverified-downloads. A per-remote version
would be nice to have too, but would need more plumbing, so KISS.
(Bill the Cat reference not too over the top I hope. The point is to
make this something the user reads the documentation for before using.)
A few calls to verifyKeyContent and getViaTmp, that don't
involve downloads from remotes, have RetrievalAllKeysSecure hard-coded.
It was also hard-coded for P2P.Annex and Command.RecvKey,
to match the values of the corresponding remotes.
A few things use retrieveKeyFile/retrieveKeyFileCheap without going
through getViaTmp.
* Command.Fsck when downloading content from a remote to verify it.
That content does not get into the annex, so this is ok.
* Command.AddUrl when using a remote to download an url; this is new
content being added, so this is ok.

This is groundwork for letting a repo be instantiated the first time
it's actually used, instead of at startup.
The only behavior change is that some old special cases for xmpp remotes
were removed. Where before git-annex silently did nothing with those
no-longer supported remotes, it may now fail in some way.
The additional IO action should have no performance impact as long as
it's simply return.

As long as all code imports Utility.Aeson rather than Data.Aeson,
and no Strings that may contain utf-8 characters are used for eg, object
keys via T.pack, this is guaranteed to fix the problem everywhere that
git-annex generates json.
It's kind of annoying to need to wrap ToJSON with a ToJSON', especially
since every data type that has a ToJSON instance has to be ported over.
However, that only took 50 lines of code, which is worth it to ensure full
coverage. I initially tried an alternative approach of a newtype FileEncoded,
which had to be used everywhere a String was fed into aeson, and chasing
down all the sites would have been far too hard. Did consider creating an
intentionally overlapping instance ToJSON String, and letting ghc fail
to build anything that passed in a String, but am not sure that wouldn't
pollute some library that git-annex depends on that happens to use ToJSON
String internally.

Don't allow "exporttree=yes" to be set when the special remote
does not support exports. That would be confusing since the user would
set up a special remote for exports, but `git annex export` to it would
later fail.

Added remote configuration settings annex-ignore-command and
annex-sync-command, which are dynamic equivilants of the annex-ignore
and annex-sync configurations.
For this I needed a new DynamicConfig infrastructure. Its implementation
should be as fast as before when there is no dynamic config, and it caches
so shell commands are only run once.
Note that annex-ignore-command exits nonzero when the remote should be ignored.
While that may seem backwards, it allows using the same command for it as
for annex-sync-command when you want to disable both.

Turns out that Data.List.Utils.split is slow and makes a lot of
allocations. Here's a much simpler single character splitter that behaves
the same (even in wacky corner cases) while running in half the time and
75% the allocations.
As well as being an optimisation, this helps move toward eliminating use of
missingh.
(Data.List.Split.splitOn is nearly as slow as Data.List.Utils.split and
allocates even more.)
I have not benchmarked the effect on git-annex, but would not be surprised
to see some parsing of eg, large streams from git commands run twice as
fast, and possibly in less memory.

ghc 8 added backtraces on uncaught errors. This is great, but git-annex was
using error in many places for a error message targeted at the user, in
some known problem case. A backtrace only confuses such a message, so omit it.
Notably, commands like git annex drop that failed due to eg, numcopies,
used to use error, so had a backtrace.

Keeping Text.JSON use for now, because it seems a better fit for most of
the commands, which don't use very structured JSON objects, but just output
whatever fields suites them. But this lets Aeson be used when a more
structured data type is available to serialize to JSON.
Removed the instance LensGpgEncParams RemoteConfig because it encouraged
code that does not take the RemoteGitConfig into account.
RemoteType's setup was changed to take a RemoteGitConfig,
although the only place that is able to provide a non-empty one is
enableremote, when it's changing an existing remote. This led to several
folow-on changes, and got RemoteGitConfig plumbed through.
Now it suffices to run git remote add, followed by git-annex sync. Now the
remote is automatically initialized for use by git-annex, where before the
git-annex branch had to manually be pushed before using git-annex sync.
Note that this involved changes to git-annex-shell, so if the remote is
using an old version, the manual push is still needed.
Implementation required git-annex-shell be changed, so configlist can
autoinit a repository even when no git-annex branch has been pushed yet.
Unfortunate because we'll have to wait for it to get deployed to servers
before being able to rely on this change in the documentation.
Did consider making git-annex sync push the git-annex branch to repos that
didn't have a uuid, but this seemed difficult to do without complicating it
in messy ways.
It would be cleaner to split a command out from configlist to handle
the initialization. But this is difficult without sacrificing backwards
compatability, for users of old git-annex versions which would not use the
new command.
This is a nearly free feature; it piggybacks on the location log lookups
done for the numcopies stats. So, the only extra overhead is updating
the map of repository sizes.
However, I had to switch to Data.Map.Strict, which needs containers 0.5.
If backporting to wheezy, will probably need to revert this commit.
