One large file is published on Zenodo.org, with a specific and permanent URL for each version (past & future). + +2. I annexed the current version with something like : `git annex addurl --file=my-input-file ; git commit ... ; git annex sync` + +3. When a newer version is published on Zenodo, I would like to \"upgrade\" the annexed file to the newer version. +I did some experiment and it seems to work by doing this : `git rm my-input-file ; git annex addurl --file=my-input-file ; git commit ... ; git annex sync ` + +Does that make sense ? is there any risk ? is there a easier/more direct way to achieve what I want ? + +Thanks in advance for your support ! + + +"""]]
