add remote.<name>.annex-checkuuid
Added remote.<name>.annex-checkuuid config, which can be set to false to disable the default checking of the uuid of remotes that point to directories. This can be useful to avoid unncessary drive spin-ups and automounting. Note that the UUID check is still done before writing to the repository, to avoid writing to the wrong repository if it got relocated. Check is also done before checkPresent to avoid getting confused about what is in which repo. This is effectively the same as the use of git-annex-shell with a uuid to check that the remote repository is the expected one. Did not bother with the check for retrieveKeyFile because it doesn't matter if the wrong repo is used then. This commit was sponsored by Trenton Cronholm on Patreon.

### 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)

I’m very happy with git-annex (thanks) and use it frequently enough to notice this behavior.

Added remote.<name>.annex-checkuuid config, which can be set to false
|
||||
to disable the default checking of the uuid. It will still check before
|
||||
making any modification of the remote repository.
|
||||
|
||||
There may still be situations where using this kind of automount is suboptimal
|
||||
with git-annex, as outlined in comment 3, but I think this is as far as it makes
|
||||
sense to change git-annex to deal with them.
