Sometimes, I wish to delete a file entirely from my local repo and any other repo that contains the file. + +First, I drop the file from my local repo and run git-annex sync --content. Then I run git annex whereis and drop the file from other repo's. Subsequently, I run git annex whereis to ensure that the file has been dropped and does not exist in any repo. + +However, git annex still tracks the file, but I just have 0 copies of it. How do I remove/delete/disable tracking of a single file or multiple files? + +The reason why I have deleted the file is that I don't want it in any of my repo's any longer. |
