-When using git annex as part of an automated backup system, it's sometimes important that we archive all files, including dotfiles.
-
-AFAICT there's no way to tell git annex add to add all dotfiles in a given directory; the only way to do it is to list every dotfile individually. (git annex add --force doesn't seem to do it.)
-
-This can be worked around with find and xargs, but this is more work than it should be, I think.
-
-It might also be nice if git annex add displayed a warning when adding a directory with dotfiles; something like "Warning, N files ignored; pass --whatever to add them."

-> [[!commit 34abd7bca80a8cc012f92d64116014449b1b2392]] explains
-> the rationalle for dotfiles to be skipped. Such as it was.
->
-> I don't think it makes sense for --force to be the flag to override
-> this, because you may want to add dotfiles, but not .gitignored
-> files. So, made a new --include-dotfiles option. [[done]] --[[Joey]]
