If git-annex changes to a new +layout, you must upgrade the repository before git-annex can be used in it. + +To see version information, run `git annex version`. + +Currently, git-annex supports upgrades all the way back to version 0, which +was only used by its author. It's expected that git-annex will always +support upgrading from all past repository versions -- this is necessary to +allow archives to be taken offline for years and later used. + +# SEE ALSO + +[[git-annex]](1) + +# AUTHOR + +Joey Hess <id@joeyh.name> + +Warning: Automatically converted into a man page by mdwn2man.
