git-annex extends git's usual remotes with some [[special_remotes]], that
are not git repositories. This way you can set up a remote using say,
Amazon S3, and use git-annex to transfer files into the cloud.
# git config remote.mys3.annex-s3-bucket myannex
# export ANNEX_S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID="08TJMT99S3511WOZEP91"
# export ANNEX_S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="s3kr1t"
# git annex copy my_cool_big_file --to mys3
copy my_cool_big_file (to mys3...) ok
# git annex move video/hackity_hack_and_kaxxt.mov --to mys3
move video/hackity_hack_and_kaxxt.mov (to mys3...) ok
An Amazon S3 remote works just like a ssh remote, except it does not have
a git repository at the other end, and it costs you money. :) For full
details about setting them up, see [[special_remotes]].
