<h2>
|
||||
Repository groups
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Each repository you configure git-annex to use is a member of a #
|
||||
repository group. Each group of repositories has a different #
|
||||
purpose.
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Let's start with the <b>client repositories</b>. These are the #
|
||||
repositories that contain files that you can directly use. Generally #
|
||||
you'll have one client repository per computer. The whole point of #
|
||||
the git-annex assistant is to keep these repositories in sync as you #
|
||||
change files, add files, delete files, etc.
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The next most important repository group is the #
|
||||
<b>transfer repositories</b>. #
|
||||
These are used to transfer files between clients, when the clients #
|
||||
cannot directly talk to one-another. Transfer repositories only #
|
||||
hold the files that need to be synced to other repositories, so they #
|
||||
are relatively small.
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
You can get along without any <b>backup repositories</b>, but they're #
|
||||
a useful safeguard. These repositories accumulate every file they can #
|
||||
get ahold of. A large removable drive makes a good backup repository.
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Next we come to the <b>archive repositories</b>.
|
||||
The archive repositories coordinate together, so that each file is #
|
||||
archived in only one place. When you move files into a folder named #
|
||||
"archive", they'll be moved to an archive repository, and removed from #
|
||||
all your client repositories. This is handy if you have old files #
|
||||
you don't need anymore, but want to keep archived for later. #
|
||||
When you copy or move a file out of an "archive" folder, it'll be #
|
||||
retrieved from the archive repository.
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Finally, the <b>small archive repositories</b> are like other archive #
|
||||
repositories, but smaller. While archive repositories normally accumulate #
|
||||
every file they can, small archive repositories only accumulate files #
|
||||
once you put them in an "archive" directory.
