Follow-up to https://git-annex.branchable.com/forum/Use_assistant_to_sync_just_git_repos__63__/#comment-88286ff5bb273eda1d731ac91197cb37

Currently, the annex.autocommit controls 3 things:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. assistant automatically committing
|
||
|
|
2. assistant automatically syncing committs to other repos
|
||
|
|
3. sync committing when invoked
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As of ff6b36c706efe1a63f121e57e45776f5f6628163 it no longer affects 2\. but that also means there's no way to control 2\. :/

The autocommit option should only configure whether the assistant automatically adds and commits new files and changes. Perhaps it should be namespaced to make its function more obvious: `annex.assistant.autocommit`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Additionally, there should be two more options to control the other two. `annex.assistant.autosync` and `annex.sync.commit` perhaps.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Making the new options namespaced would also allow the old option to retain its current function; enabling all three.
|
||
|
|

I've got multiple use-cases for git-annex where I cannot use the assistant because these finer-grained options don't exist.
