Many special remotes can potentially end up exposed in public http. There
|
||
|
|
is not currently a way to access them over http, without adding per-remote
|
||
|
|
support (like S3 has).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
But generally the filenames used are the same, eg rsync and directory and
|
||
|
|
webdav and S3. Or if there are differences, they are generally small and
|
||
|
|
trying a couple of different urls is doable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And sameas allows for
|
||
|
|
<https://git-annex.branchable.com/tips/multiple_remotes_accessing_the_same_data_store/>
|
||
|
|
now.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
So, there could be a new special remote type, that allows generic readonly
|
||
|
|
access of other special remotes whose data stores are exposed via http.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Call it "http" maybe. (There may be some confusion between this and the web
|
||
|
|
special remote by users looking for such a thing.) --[[Joey]]
