But the manufacturers don't count in sectors.
It should be consistent, though. "How many GB of disk space do you

In general, I like it. The git-branch documentation already talks
about "remote-tracking branches" so I've rewritten a couple of

Now that we sometimes step the array events count backwards
(when transitioning dirty->clean where nothing else interesting
has happened - so that we don't need to write to spares all the time),
it is possible for the event count to return to zero, which is

we always read the first PAGE_SIZE bytes, which might not
always be appropriate. So limit that read to the size of the
file if appropriate.
