* document move/copy --fast and --forceGravatar Joey Hess2017-05-31
| | | | | | | | There was documentation in 7a3aafe76274a9e54395acb8ec2ce351888495de, but it was lost in the man page split. I don't know if this --force is very useful. Considered removing it instead..
* move --to=hereGravatar Joey Hess2017-05-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * move --to=here moves from all reachable remotes to the local repository. The output of move --from remote is changed slightly, when the remote and local both have the content. It used to say: move foo ok Now: move foo (from theremote...) ok That was done so that, when move --to=here is used and the content is locally present and also in several remotes, it's clear which remotes the content gets dropped from. Note that move --to=here will report an error if a non-reachable remote contains the file, even if the local repository also contains the file. I think that's reasonable; the user may be intending to move all other copies of the file from remotes. OTOH, if a copy of the file is believed to be present in some repository that is not a configured remote, move --to=here does not report an error. So a little bit inconsistent, but erroring in this case feels wrong. copy --to=here came along for free, but it's basically the same behavior as git-annex get, and probably with not as good messages in edge cases (especially on failure), so I've not documented it. This commit was sponsored by Anthony DeRobertis on Patreon.
* copy, move, mirror: Support --json and --json-progress.Gravatar Joey Hess2016-09-09

* get, move, copy, mirror: Added --failed switch which retries failed copies/movesGravatar Joey Hess2016-08-03
| | | | | | | | | Note that get --from foo --failed will get things that a previous get --from bar tried and failed to get, etc. I considered making --failed only retry transfers from the same remote, but it was easier, and seems more useful, to not have the same remote requirement. Noisy due to some refactoring into Types/
* --branch, stage 1Gravatar Joey Hess2016-07-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added --branch option to copy, drop, fsck, get, metadata, mirror, move, and whereis commands. This option makes git-annex operate on files that are included in a specified branch (or other treeish). The names of the files from the branch that are being operated on are not displayed yet; only the keys. Displaying the filenames will need changes to every affected command. Also, note that --branch can be specified repeatedly. This is not really documented, but seemed worth supporting, especially since we may later want the ability to operate on all branches matching a refspec. However, when operating on two branches that contain the same key, that key will be operated on twice.
* 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.
* get, move, copy, mirror: Concurrent downloads and uploads are now supported!Gravatar Joey Hess2015-04-10
| | | | | | | | | | | This works, and seems fairly robust. Clean get of 20 files at -J3. At -J10, there are some messages about ssh multiplexing, probably due to a race spinning up the ssh connection cacher. But, it manages to get all the files ok regardless. The progress bars are a scrambled mess though, due to bugs in ascii-progress, which I've already filed. Particularly this one: https://github.com/yamadapc/haskell-ascii-progress/issues/8
* finished splitting out man pages for all commandsGravatar Joey Hess2015-03-25

* splitting up the man pageGravatar Joey Hess2015-03-23
Common command man pages all split out and often expanded. A few sections split out into their own pages. Still need to do all the other commands..
