My understanding is that a preferred content value of "anything" (or
|
||||
equivalently the standard group "backup") should consider deleted
|
||||
files from a remote as wanted. I'm not a heavy user of preferred
|
||||
content myself, so this understanding is based primarily off of the
|
||||
[preferred_content/standard_groups][0] documentation saying
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
### backup
|
||||
|
||||
All content is wanted. Even content of old/deleted files.
|
||||
|
||||
`anything`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
At least with the scenarios I've constructed, I haven't been able to
|
||||
find a case where old files are considered. As an example:
|
||||
|
||||
[[!format sh """
|
||||
cd "$(mktemp -d ${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/gx-XXXXXXX)"
|
||||
|
||||
git init a
|
||||
(
|
||||
cd a
|
||||
git annex init a
|
||||
>foo && git annex add foo && git commit -m"add foo"
|
||||
git rm foo && git commit -m"delete foo"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
git clone a b
|
||||
(
|
||||
cd b
|
||||
git annex init b
|
||||
git annex wanted . anything
|
||||
git annex sync
|
||||
|
||||
set -x
|
||||
|
||||
git show git-annex:uuid.log
|
||||
git show git-annex:preferred-content.log
|
||||
|
||||
git annex find --want-get
|
||||
git annex get --auto
|
||||
git annex unused
|
||||
)
|
||||
"""]]
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[...]
|
||||
+ git show git-annex:uuid.log
|
||||
17fae615-a90b-405a-85c2-9d0f28246bdf a timestamp=1586190820.385256186s
|
||||
1f0ad7d6-31ba-4d7e-a2e6-ab6acb3338c9 b timestamp=1586190820.750487084s
|
||||
+ git show git-annex:preferred-content.log
|
||||
1f0ad7d6-31ba-4d7e-a2e6-ab6acb3338c9 anything timestamp=1586190820.867633471s
|
||||
+ git annex find --want-get
|
||||
+ git annex get --auto
|
||||
+ git annex unused
|
||||
unused . (checking for unused data...) ok
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The output above is with 8.20200330, but I saw the same result when I
|
||||
tried with 7.20190819.
|
||||
|
||||
I haven't been able to think of another way to interpret "Even content
|
||||
of old/deleted files", so I think at least this is a documentation
|
||||
bug.

### 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)
|
||||
|
||||
Yes. Thank you! :>
