# NAME

git-annex rmurl - record file is not available at url

# SYNOPSIS

git annex rmurl `[file url ..]`

# DESCRIPTION

Record that the file is no longer available at the url.

Removing the last web url will make git-annex no longer treat content as being
present in the web special remote.

# OPTIONS

* `--batch`

  Enables batch mode, in which lines are read from stdin.
  Each line should contain the file, and the url to remove from that file,
  separated by a single space.

* `-z`

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

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

# SEE ALSO

[[git-annex]](1)

[[git-annex-addurl]](1)

added -z Added -z option to git-annex commands that use --batch, useful for supporting filenames containing newlines. It only controls input to --batch, the output will still be line delimited unless --json or etc is used to get some other output. While git often makes -z affect both input and output, I don't like trying them together, and making it affect output would have been a significant complication, and also git-annex output is generally not intended to be machine parsed, unless using --json or a format option. Commands that take pairs like "file key" still separate them with a space in --batch mode. All such commands take care to support filenames with spaces when parsing that, so there was no need to change it, and it would have needed significant changes to the batch machinery to separate tose with a null. To make fromkey and registerurl support -z, I had to give them a --batch option. The implicit batch mode they enter when not provided with input parameters does not support -z as that would have complicated option parsing. Seemed better to move these toward using the same --batch as everything else, though the implicit batch mode can still be used.

split out common options to its own page and mention it on each subcommand page Sometimes users would get confused because an option they were looking for was not mentioned on a subcommand's man page, and they had not noticed that the main git-annex man page had a list of common options. This change lets each subcommand mention the common options, similarly to how the matching options are handled.

expand manpages cross-references significantly i found that most man pages only had references to the main git-annex manpage, which i stillfind pretty huge and hard to navigate through. i tried to sift through all the man pages and add cross-references between relevant pages. my general rule of thumb is that links should be both ways unless one of the pages is a more general page that would become ridiculously huge if all backlinks would be added (git-annex-preferred-content comes to mind). i have also make the links one per line as this is how it was done in the metadata pages so far. i did everything but the plumbing, utility and test commands, although some of those are linked from the other commands so cross-links were added there as well. 2015-05-29 16:12:55 +00:00			`[[git-annex-addurl]](1)`
