git-annex is in a mode of continual user-driven improvement, involving numerous
|
|
|
|
small issues and often easily implemented ideas.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here are some larger/ongoing plans for git-annex, in no particular order.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Speed improvements, including:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Speed up git checkout in v7 repository by
|
|
|
|
improving git's smudge/clean filter interface, or some other approach, to avoid needing to fork
|
|
|
|
git-annex once per file during the checkout.

* [[todo/sqlite_database_improvements]] to avoid using String and better
|
|
|
|
encode data stored in sqlite.
|
|
|
|
|
2019-08-26 16:29:43 +00:00
|
|
|
Default to v7 repositories, and eliminate direct mode.

|
|
|
Improvements to tree export support, including supporting export to more
|
2019-05-23 18:24:25 +00:00
|
|
|
external special remotes, more
|
2018-11-08 19:42:53 +00:00
|
|
|
efficient renames, and improving support for exporting non-annexed files.

|
2018-11-08 19:42:53 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Improve support for branches where annexed files without content locally
|
|
|
|
present are hidden (adjust --hide-missing). Including interface for
|
|
|
|
operating on hidden files to get them, speeding up generation of the
|
|
|
|
branch, and updating it more frequently.

2019-07-22 17:54:43 +00:00
|
|
|
Improve Windows support. Further improve using git-annex in Windows
|
|
|
|
Subsystem for Linux (WSL). Get Windows fully supported with no caveats.
|
|
|
|
Possibly even supporting indirect mode with symlinks.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Add more special remotes, and/or ship a collection of existing external
|
|
|
|
special remotes as part of git-annex. Improve existing special remotes,
|
|
|
|
eg adding support for Glacier lifecycles to S3.
