showing each repository they were added to ("+") and removed from ("-").

location log is for the particular file contents currently at these paths,

not for any different content that was there in earlier commits.

This displays information from the history of the git-annex branch. Several
|
||||
things can prevent that information being available to display. When
|
||||
[[git-annex-dead]] and [[git-annex-forget]] are used, old historical
|
||||
data gets cleared from the branch. When annex.private or
|
||||
remote.name.annex-private is configured, git-annex does not write
|
||||
information to the branch at all. And when annex.alwayscommit is set to
|
||||
false, information may not have been committed to the branch yet.

## networks of hidden repos
|
||||
|
||||
There are a lot of complications involving using hidden repos as remotes.
