It should be possible for this to work:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
joey@darkstar:~/tmp/bench3/a>git annex move x --from d
|
||
|
|
move x (from d...)
|
||
|
|
dropping content from an export is not supported; use `git annex export` to export a tree that lacks the files you want to remove
|
||
|
|
failed
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git-annex could just alter the tree exported to the remote to remove the file.
|
||
|
|
It might be a little slow to do that for a lot of files, and it would create
|
||
|
|
some unattached tree objects that would linger until gc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A simple optimisation would be to remove the file (with removeExport) but not update the
|
||
|
|
export tree for one file. Keep a log of removed files, and at the end of the command,
|
||
|
|
or some future point where the export tree is used, update the export tree to remove the
|
||
|
|
files from it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This seems like a prerequisite for [[remove_legacy_import_directory_interface]] because
|
||
|
|
`git-annex import --deduplicate` and `--clean-duplicates` need to remove individual files
|
||
|
|
from the remote.
