* annex.merge-annex-branchesGravatar Joey Hess2018-02-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added annex.merge-annex-branches config setting which can be used to disable automatic merge of git-annex branches. I wonder if git-annex merge/sync/assistant should disable this setting? Not sure yet, so have not done so. May be that users will not set it in git config, but pass it via -c to commands that need it. Checking the config setting adds a very small overhead, but it's only checked once per command so should be insignificant. This commit was supported by the NSF-funded DataLad project.
* configuration to disable automatic merge conflict resolutionGravatar Joey Hess2017-06-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Added annex.resolvemerge configuration, which can be set to false to disable the usual automatic merge conflict resolution done by git-annex sync and the assistant. * sync: Added --no-resolvemerge option. Note that disabling merge conflict resolution is probably not a good idea in a direct mode repo or adjusted branch. Since updates to both are done outside the usual work tree, if it fails the tree is not left in a conflicted state, and it would be hard to manually resolve the conflict. Still, made annex.resolvemerge be supported in those cases for consistency. This commit was sponsored by Riku Voipio.
* inheritable annex.securehashesonlyGravatar Joey Hess2017-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * init: When annex.securehashesonly has been set with git-annex config, copy that value to the annex.securehashesonly git config. * config --set: As well as setting value in git-annex branch, set local gitconfig. This is needed especially for annex.securehashesonly, which is read only from local gitconfig and not the git-annex branch. doc/todo/sha1_collision_embedding_in_git-annex_keys.mdwn has the rationalle for doing it this way. There's no perfect solution; this seems to be the least-bad one. This commit was supported by the NSF-funded DataLad project.
* New annex.synccontent config settingGravatar Joey Hess2017-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | .. which can be set to true to make git annex sync default to --content. This may become the default at some point in the future. As well as being configuable by git config, it can be configured by git-annex config to control the default behavior in all clones of a repository. Had to add a separate --no-content switch to we can tell if it's been explicitly set, and should override annex.synccontent. If --content was the default, this complication would not be necessary.

* annex.autocommit can be configured via git-annex configGravatar Joey Hess2017-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ... to control the default behavior in all clones of a repository. This includes a new Configurable data type, so the GitConfig type indicates which values can be configured this way. The implementation should be quite efficient; the config log is only read once, and only when a Configurable value has not already been set by git-config. Indeed, it would be nice in the future to extend this, so that git-config is itself only read on demand. Some commands may not need to look at the git configuration at all.

* config: New command for storing configuration in the git-annex branch.Gravatar Joey Hess2017-01-30
Any config names can be set using this; git-annex commands will only look at specific ones that make sense and are worth the overhead of querying the branch. This might also be useful for storing whatever other config-type stuff the user might want to shove into the git-annex branch. This commit was sponsored by Jochen Bartl on Patreon.
