Client group means the [[preferred_content]] settings will try to get the content of all files, unlless they're in a directory named \"archive\". This happens not just when you rename a dropped file, but on startup, when the network comes up, or even just periodically it'll notice if some file's content is missing and download it. - -So, your choices are - -1. Make an `archive` directory, and move files into it when you don't want them available locally. The assistant will even automatically drop them when you move them. -2. Use `git annex vicfg` to set up your own [[preferred content]] expression that makes it behave how you want. For example, you could use `present` to make the assistant not prefer to have the content of files, unless the content is already present, and then manually `git annex get` and `git annex drop` files as desired. - -(BTW, you can use \"drop\" in direct mode with yesterday's release.) -"""]] |
