This changes .go-ipfs to .ipfs everywhere.
And by the way this defines a DefaultPathName const
for this name.

This should fix issue #970 (move to using ~/.ipfs).

This LGTM. Before merging to master, we'll need to write a migration. I've the beginnings of the migration stuff in #950. Not sure what the best way to work on, review, and merge code that will go into one repo version upgrade, but perhaps:

  • make one branch + PR for the repo version upgrade, which ensure the whole version is atomic
  • make smaller PRs against that branch.
  • merge the whole thing atomically, so there's only one migration to apply.

A key thing to consider here is that minimizing the number of migrations is good for users. If things go wrong, reasoning about one atomic change is easier than many. (at least this is my intuition)
