Any thoughts Joey? I am happy to troubleshoot this further, but I am not really sure what to test. I do have git-annex building from source on a mac, but I don't have any experience with Haskell, so don't really know what I could be checking.
Thanks. Andrew

doc/todo/support_for_storing_xattrs.mdwn Normal file

It would be nice to have support for storing extended attributes in git-annex.
There are some useful [proposed metadata attributes](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/CommonExtendedAttributes/#proposedmetadataattributes):
* user.xdg.comment: A comment specified by the user. This comment could be displayed by file managers
* user.xdg.origin.url: Set on a file downloaded from a url. Its value should equal the url it was downloaded from.
* user.xdg.origin.email.subject: Set on an email attachment when saved to disk. It should get its value from the originating message's "Subject" header
* user.xdg.origin.email.from: Set on an email attachment when saved to disk. It should get its value from the originating messsage's "From" header. For example '"John Doe" <jdoe@example.com>', or 'jdoe@example.com'
* user.xdg.origin.email.message-id: Set on an email attachment when saved to disk. It should get its value from the originating message's "Message-Id" header.
At least `curl --xattr` saves `xdg.origin.url`.
Perhaps `git-annex-metadata` could be leveraged to automatically store and restore xattrs? Might even work that addition of xattrs would always have to be done through a git-annex command, but restoration would be done automatically if git-annex noticed there are xattrs stored in metadata, and the file system is mounted with `user_xattr`.
The `user` namespace is used for user xattrs and thus for "proposed metadata attributes" above. These attributes are valid git-annex metadata fields as-is.
