Imagine this situation:
|
||||
You have a laptop and a NAS.
|
||||
On your laptop you want to consume a large media file located on the NAS.
|
||||
So you type:
|
||||
|
||||
git annex get --from nas mediafile
|
||||
|
||||
But now you have to wait for the download to complete, unless either
|
||||
|
||||
* rsync is pointed directly to the file in the object storage ("--inplace")
|
||||
or
|
||||
* the symlink temporarily points to the partial file during a transfer
|
||||
|
||||
which would allow you instantaneous consumption of your media.
|
||||
It might make sense to make this behavior configurable, because not everyone might agree with having partial content (that mismatches its key) around.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
So what do you say?
