The URL is `https://...IMG_1234.JPG` but the annexed file is `SHA256E-...832c99` with no extension. + +This is fine for most use cases, but I actually access an S3 remote directly from another app (independent of git-annex) to render photos, and in that app I'm using the extensions to figure out file types, so not having that info is slightly inconvenient. + +Is there any way to either: + +1. tell git-annex to preserve the extension of a file on the web in the annexed file, or +2. alternatively, change the annexed filename (add the extension manually) without screwing anything up? + +Any help would be much appreciated, thanks! |
