git-annex/doc/todo/make_addurl_respect_annex.largefiles_option.mdwn

ATM git annex addurl ignores  annex.largefiles option so to automate annexification or direct add to git for a list of files I need manually to download each one of them into a FILE and then "git annex add -c annex.largefiles='exclude=*.txt'  FILE".  But it would have been convenient if I could "addurl" some files directly from urls directly into git, as per largefiles settings.

N.B. I do understand that use-case might be somewhat vague, let me know if I should expand reasoning

addurl, importfeed: Changed to honor annex.largefiles settings, when the content of the url is downloaded. (Not when using --fast or --relaxed.) importfeed just calls addurl functions, so inherits this from it. Note that addurl still generates a temp file, and uses that key to download the file. It just adds it to the work tree at the end when the file is small. 2015-12-02 19:12:33 +00:00
