* annex.thinGravatar Joey Hess2015-12-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Decided it's too scary to make v6 unlocked files have 1 copy by default, but that should be available to those who need it. This is consistent with git-annex not dropping unused content without --force, etc. * Added annex.thin setting, which makes unlocked files in v6 repositories be hard linked to their content, instead of a copy. This saves disk space but means any modification of an unlocked file will lose the local (and possibly only) copy of the old version. * Enable annex.thin by default on upgrade from direct mode to v6, since direct mode made the same tradeoff. * fix: Adjusts unlocked files as configured by annex.thin.
* expand manpages cross-references significantlyGravatar Antoine Beaupré2015-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | i found that most man pages only had references to the main git-annex manpage, which i stillfind pretty huge and hard to navigate through. i tried to sift through all the man pages and add cross-references between relevant pages. my general rule of thumb is that links should be both ways unless one of the pages is a more general page that would become ridiculously huge if all backlinks would be added (git-annex-preferred-content comes to mind). i have also make the links one per line as this is how it was done in the metadata pages so far. i did everything but the plumbing, utility and test commands, although some of those are linked from the other commands so cross-links were added there as well.
* separated man pages for all the maintenance commandsGravatar Joey Hess2015-03-24
