# NAME
git-annex add - adds files to the git annex
# SYNOPSIS
git annex add `[path ...]`
# DESCRIPTION
Adds the specified files to the annex. If a directory is specified,
acts on all files inside the directory and its subdirectories.
If no path is specified, adds files from the current directory and below.
Files that are already checked into git and are unmodified, or that
git has been configured to ignore will be silently skipped.
If annex.largefiles is configured, and does not match a file, `git annex
add` will behave the same as `git add` and add the non-large file directly
to the git repository, instead of to the annex.
Large files are added to the annex in locked form, which prevents further
modification of their content unless unlocked by [[git-annex-unlock]](1).
(This is not the case however when a repository is in direct mode.)
To add a file to the annex in unlocked form, `git add` can be used instead
(that only works when the repository has annex.version 6 or higher).
This command can also be used to add symbolic links, both symlinks to
annexed content, and other symlinks.
# OPTIONS
* `--include-dotfiles`
Dotfiles are skipped unless explicitly listed, or unless this option is
used.
* `--force`
Add gitignored files.
* `--backend`
Specifies which key-value backend to use.
* file matching options
Many of the [[git-annex-matching-options]](1)
can be used to specify files to add.
For example: `--largerthan=1GB`
* `--jobs=N` `-JN`
Adds multiple files in parallel. This may be faster.
For example: `-J4`
* `--json`
Enable JSON output. This is intended to be parsed by programs that use
git-annex. Each line of output is a JSON object.
* `--batch`
Enables batch mode, in which a file to add is read in a line from stdin,
the file is added, and repeat.
Note that if a file is skipped (due to not existing, being gitignored,
already being in git etc), an empty line will be output instead of the
normal output produced when adding a file.
