### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
Yep! I already use it to move files between my laptop's HDD and SSD, and to copy files between my many SD cards. I was trying this to see if I could not have to scroll as far on my 3D printer's menu.

`git annex adjust --hide-missing` is now available to do what you want
re hiding missing files.
`git annex view` doesn't currently unlock files in a v6 repo, so it's not
usable on a crippled filesystem. That's why the cat in the transcript above
shows the symlink content which git writes to a regular file when in a
crippled filesystem.
I would like to eventually unify adjust with view, so `git annex adjust
--unlock` can be used with a view, which would support that.
See [[todo/unify_adjust_with_view]].

`git annex adjust` and `git annex view` (et all) both derive a branch from
the main branch and enter it. They have different capabilies. It would be
useful to be able to compose them. For example, to enter a view based on
metadata that also has all files unlocked.
There's also probably a fair amount of overlap in their implementations.
