git-annex mincopies - configure minimum number of copies
|
|

|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
git annex mincopies `N`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tells git-annex how many copies it is required to preserve of files, over all
|
|
|
|
|
repositories. The default is 1.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Run without a number to get the current value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This configuration is stored in the git-annex branch, so it will be seen
|
|
|
|
|
by all clones of the repository. It can be overridden on a per-file basis
|
|
|
|
|
by the annex.mincopies setting in .gitattributes files, or can be
|
|
|
|
|
overridden temporarily with the --mincopies option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This supplements the [[git-annex-numcopies]](1) setting.
|
|
|
|
|
In unusual situations, involving special remotes that do not support
|
|
|
|
|
locking, and concurrent drops of the same content from multiple
|
|
|
|
|
repositories, git-annex may violate the numcopies setting.
|

|
|
|
In these unusual situations, git-annex ensures that the number of copies
|
|
|
|
|
never goes below mincopies.
