  What is a malicious path?

  A spoofed path is a malicious path.

  1. Darcs only creates explicitly relative paths (beginning with @\".\/\"@),
     so any not explicitly relative path is surely spoofed.

  2. Darcs normalizes paths so they never contain @\"\/..\/\"@, so paths with
     @\"\/..\/\"@ are surely spoofed.

  A path to a darcs repository's meta data can modify \"trusted\" patches or
  change safety defaults in that repository, so we check for paths
  containing @\"\/_darcs\/\"@ which is the entry to darcs meta data.

  To do?

  * How about get repositories?

  * Would it be worth adding a --semi-safe-paths option for allowing
    changes to certain preference files (_darcs\/prefs\/) in sub
    repositories'?

  TODO:
    Properly review the way we handle paths on Windows - it's not enough
    to just use the OS native concept of path separator. Windows often
    accepts both path separators, and repositories always use the UNIX
    separator anyway.
