# NAME
git-annex drop - indicate content of files not currently wanted
# SYNOPSIS
git annex drop `[path ...]`
# DESCRIPTION
Drops the content of annexed files from this repository, when
possible.
git-annex will refuse to drop content if it cannot verify it is
safe to do so.
# OPTIONS
* `--from=remote`
Rather than dropping the content of files in the local repository,
this option can specifiy a remote from which the files'
contents should be removed.
--auto is no longer a global option; only get, drop, and copy accept it. Not a behavior change unless you were passing it to a command that ignored it.

* `--auto`
Rather than trying to drop all specified files, drop only files that
are not preferred content of the repository.
See [[git-annex-preferred-content]](1)

2015-03-23 19:36:10 +00:00
* `--force`
Use this option with care! It bypasses safety checks, and forces
git-annex to delete the content of the specified files, even from
the last repository that is storing their content. Data loss can
result from using this option.
drop: Now supports --all, --unused, and --key.

* `--all`
Rather than specifying a filename or path to drop, this option can be
used to drop all available versions of all files.
This is the default behavior when running git-annex drop in a bare repository.
* `--unused`
Drop files found by last run of git-annex unused.
* `--key=keyname`
Use this option to drop a specified key.

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.
