      Description

      When a user runs processCcd from the command line for ISR, if outputrepo was previously a destination for another processCcd run, an opaque butler error which sneakily originates in daf_persistence will result ("No locations for get").

      I have only tried this for DECam images; it's possible this may be a special case affecting only images ingested with obs_decam. I don't generally have a problem with the requirement for an empty destination directory for output from processCcd, but the Traceback should give the user a clue as to the source of the problem.

      For example, for the case where repo, calibrepo, and outputrepo are directories with ingested images, ingested calibration products, and past output from processCcd, respectively:

      processCcd.py repo --id visit=410878 ccdnum=54 --output outputrepo --calib calibrepo -C $OBS_DECAM_DIR/config/processCcdCpIsr.py --config calibrate.doAstrometry=False calibrate.doPhotoCal=False
      

      will return an error that appears to indicate a problem with accessing the bias:

      but the same command runs successfully when outputrepo is an empty directory.

            The redesign of the repository initialization as described in the docstring is reasonable except that I believe it still breaks the common pattern of creating an output repo with one task (e.g. generating a skymap for a coadd) and then reusing that output repo while adding more output datasets (e.g. generating warped images) with different input repos. In order to handle this case, we need to allow addition of new input repos (parents) to an existing output repo. This requires that the in-repo persisted configuration be updated, which in turn requires locking to serialize access to that configuration. This needs to be added before merge to master to ensure that this use case is not broken.

            (The use case can also be supported by insisting that repos not be reused; the skymap repo would then be an input/parent to the warp repo. This requires changes to both existing tasks and user habits which will take longer.)

            While the multi-step initialization process seems complex, each step is necessary (at least for now).

            There are a few typos, misspellings, and coding issues that should be fixed as well. For example, in line 302 of butler.py, the extra parentheses should be removed and the use of the external-to-the-function variable alreadyAdded should be documented. A separate Python-only code review is recommended.

            Andy and Kenny: this code has been reviewed for design by K-T. They still need code review. Can you please do that. (Andy Salnikov I owe you some big code reviews after all this, on SuperTask or something....)

            (Kian-Tat Lim you might look at the newer commits in daf_persistence if you are able; they add RepositoryCfg parent extendability).

            Please check my comments on PR, I tried to understand as much as I could, cannot say that I succeeded. Removing myself from reviewer.

            K-T has finished the design review and further discussions.
            Andy reviewed the code. Kenny Lo may want to look at the PR's still, I'd be glad to receive any feedback from him, probably via email or in person is best.

            Nate Pease [X] I did scan the file changes but quickly realized the scope is much wider than expected of a bug fix. I will email you my other general comments.
