Like git, git-annex hangs on to every old version of a file, so you can
|
||||
make tags and branches, and can check them out later to look at the old
|
||||
files.
|
||||
|
||||
# git tag 1.0
|
||||
# rm -f my_cool_big_file
|
||||
# git commit -m deleted
|
||||
# git checkout 1.0
|
||||
# cat my_cool_big_file
|
||||
yay! old version still here
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, when you `git checkout` an old branch, some old versions of
|
||||
files may not be locally available, and may be stored in some other
|
||||
repository. You can use `git annex get` to get them as usual.
