At filesystem level, `find` reports about 924.000 entries (directories, files, symlinks). + +Inspecting it I see that `.git/annex/transfer` containes over 86000 entries (mostly files). + +I tried to find more information about it and only https://git-annex.branchable.com/design/assistant/syncing/ seemed to provide some information but not enough. + +Are they needed permanently? Can I just delete `.git/annex/transfer` without damage? + +Thanks. |
