git-annex-put1

Usage

Overview

Sends the content of annexed files to remotes. By default, files are sent to all remotes (except for certian special remotes that have to be populated using git-annex export).

With no parameters, operates on all annexed files in the current directory. Paths of files or directories to operate on can be specified.

Options

--wanted -w

Send files only to remotes that want them. See git-annex-preferred-content(1)

--auto

Only send files to remotes that want them, or when there are not yet the desired number of copies.

--fast

Only send files to remotes with the lowest annex-cost value configured.

--jobs=N -JN

Enables parallel transfers with up to the specified number of jobs running at once. For example: -J10

Setting this to "cpus" will run one job per CPU core.

--all -A

Rather than specifying a filename or path to send, this option can be used to send all available versions of all files.

This is the default behavior when running git-annex in a bare repository.

--branch=ref

Operate on files in the specified branch or treeish.

--unused

Operate on files found by last run of git-annex unused.

--failed

Operate on files that have recently failed to be transferred.

--key=keyname

Use this option to send a specified key.

matching options

The git-annex-matching-options(1) can be used to specify what to send.

--batch

Enables batch mode, in which lines containing names of files to send are read from stdin.

As each specified file is processed, the usual progress output is displayed. If a file's content does not need to be sent, or it does not match specified matching options, or it is not an annexed file, a blank line is output in response instead.

Since the usual output while sending a file is verbose and not machine-parseable, you may want to use --json in combination with --batch.

--batch-keys

This is like --batch but the lines read from stdin are parsed as keys.

-z

Makes batch input be delimited by nulls instead of the usual newlines.

--json

Enable JSON output. This is intended to be parsed by programs that use git-annex. Each line of output is a JSON object.

--json-progress

Include progress objects in JSON output.

--json-error-messages

Messages that would normally be output to standard error are included in the JSON instead.

Also the git-annex-common-options(1) can be used.
