If I check the .git/annex/objects of common_repo, I can't seem to find a copy of the unmodified somefile.csv. It only has a copy of the latest somefile.csv. This is problematic if one client tries to checkout a revision of the project that uses the original somefile.csv. I learned that I can change the preferred content of git-annex. So, the appropriate preset for common_repo seemed to be "backup". After running the commands in common_repo: - git annex wanted . standard - git annex group . backup +
+git annex wanted . standard
+git annex group . backup +
I've done another test of the scenario above, and common_repo is still missing the previous revision of the file!! The preferred file content of common_repo should be "include=* or unused". In my case, the previous version of somefile.csv will probably fall in the "unused" category. But I still cannot find it. A workaround is using two commands from the client(s): - git annex copy --to --all - git annex sync --content +
+git annex copy --to --all
+git annex sync --content +
But I can imagine my users forgetting to run 'copy' and my repo will go to shit over time. Any ideas why I can't synchronise 'unused' files? - -- cgit v1.2.3 From 37cff26b4343bd97a199beadf9777a6a9a77f512 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "zsolist@20b8dad52ed42acde0810648144f7df87b29cd39" Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2015 08:22:45 +0000 Subject: --- .../Does_the_windows_version_install_iStartSurf_malware__63__.mdwn | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) create mode 100644 doc/forum/Does_the_windows_version_install_iStartSurf_malware__63__.mdwn diff --git a/doc/forum/Does_the_windows_version_install_iStartSurf_malware__63__.mdwn b/doc/forum/Does_the_windows_version_install_iStartSurf_malware__63__.mdwn new file mode 100644 index 000000000..21c03e758 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/forum/Does_the_windows_version_install_iStartSurf_malware__63__.mdwn @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +Hi, since I installed git-annex-windows through the link from the homepage I got iStartSurf, a really anoying malware.
