What is the correct way to add/modify files such that the changes are synchronized?
Suppose I have a server "server" and a windows client "client" (more after some time); everything direct mode.
I created the repos on the server:
cd bin
git init
git annex init server
git annex direct
git annex add .
git annex sync
On the (Windows) client using cygwin:
git annex clone ssh://me@server:/srv/bin
cd bin
git annex init client
Then I want to add files on the client:
git annex add tools
git annex sync
At this point I wonder that the data is not copied to the server but only metadata!
I then used
git annex sync --content
but then everything from the server is leeched as well (as if I could have called "git annex get .")
What is the intented workflow such that added/modified files on the client always go to the server, modified/new files from the server are always pulled but ONLY if I previously got the file/directory via "get annex get"?
