CLI inconsistent error on sync after clone in two different ways

[cottrell]

I suspect there is some minor inconsistency in the CLI that leads to failing syncs after a clone specified with a hash and no dir argument. The first line works and the seconds one doesn't.

$ dat --version
13.11.4

$ dat clone f427ad98689e020f8d8d16ec238d3d2b56f5cdd3dabe40e7bacb2133c2e33583
$ dat sync f427ad98689e020f8d8d16ec238d3d2b56f5cdd3dabe40e7bacb2133c2e33583/

I think it might be having a hard time if you make the directory name the hash.

Specifying a non-hash directory name seems to be ok.

$ dat clone 9852c6d737a05235986fc3975adef9d177aabb13c92d6f1f48007b7dd008abb7 9852c6d737a05235986fc3975adef9d177aabb13c92d6f1f48007b7dd008abb7

A final hunch is that it is something to do with the length of the directory name. Prepending sha_... does not fix the issue but truncating the hash does.
