thanks for responding...
|

I used git annex unannex because I tried using git annex uninit and it DELETED my entire multi TB ./.git/annex/objects, even though I only had a handful of symlinks on in that repo, I wanted to find another way to unannex files that wouldn't delete my technically \"unused\" data.
|
||||
|
||||
and git annex unannex was what I tried when git annex unlock would not hardlink the files via annex.thin=true. it was only with toying with the 2 commands and finally --fast that I was able to get it to hardlink the files
|
||||
|
||||
my end goal was to be able to remove my data reliably from git annex entirely without it purging the object store.
|
||||
|
||||
and now as I read about hardlinks=true or whatever I see that git annex doesn't really love to hardlink multiple files past 2 because then multiple, independent files being modified would corrupt the object store.
|
||||
|
||||
I just want this thing to be reliable at scale. I put all my data into it but the speed is killing me, so I want to be able to get it out or split off data types to secondary git annexes, while having some idea of what it's doing under the covers so I don't get surprised.
