CheckConfigName returns an error if configName is invalid.

JoinRootPath joins filePath onto remote If the remote has a leading "//" this is preserved to allow Windows network paths to be used as remotes.

MakeConfigName makes an input into something legal to be used as a config name.

Parse deconstructs a path into a Parsed structure If the path is a local path then parsed.Name will be returned as "".

Split splits a remote into a parent and a leaf if it returns leaf as an empty string then remote is a directory if it returns parent as an empty string then that means the current directory The returned values have the property that parent + leaf == remote (except under Windows where \ will be translated into /).

SplitFs splits a remote a remoteName and an remotePath.

Parsed is returned from Parse with the results of the connection string decomposition If Name is "" then it is a local path in Path Note that ConfigString + ":" + Path is equal to the input of Parse except that Path may have had \ converted to /.
