+Hi,
+
+How git-annex-get chooses remote when it's called without the '--from' option? Is it anyhow controllable to prefer specific remotes/set priorities?
+
+What about downloading multiple files? Does it download from multiple remotes at the same time to optimize for bandwidth?

+I've initialized an external special remote (specifically, an rclone remote). It is working great. However, I would like to edit my rclone config and change the name of the rclone remote. This is the value I passed as `target=` when running `git annex initremote`. Can I change the target of the special remote in git annex? I grepped through `~/.git`, but didn't see it anywhere.

+Hi,
+
+Our need is to create a JAVA application under Windows that manages programmatically the synchronisation of a local directory structure from a remote directory on a Linux machine:
+- locally the user may choose the content of the remote directory to synchronise
+- then the application is able to synchronize ths content on demand or on a regular basis

+Can git-annex + git a soluton that answer those requirements ?
+Does git-annex expose an API callable from JAVA ?

doc/todo/Specify_maximum_usable_space_per_remote.mdwn

@@ -0,0 +1,9 @@
+I would like to be able to limit the amount of space git-annex will use on a remote.
+
+Obviously this would not limit the total amount of space used on whatever filesystem the remote is on, but would only apply to space used within the remote for the particular annex in question.
+
+Many of the cloud storage providers that git-annex supports through special remotes have free tiers. For instance, Google offers 15GB of free storage. If I have an annex with > 15 GB of storage I don't just want to add a Google Drive special remote and start attempting to copy everything over. But it would be great to be able to take advantage of that storage by adding a special remote to the annex and telling git-annex to only use a maximum of 13 GB (to leave myself a 2 GB buffer, in case things get added to the Google Drive through some mechanism outside of the annex). I could then add the remote to a preferred content group like `backup` and do a `git-annex copy --auto gdrive`, which would copy everything to Google Drive, unless transferring the next file would cause the remote to use over 13 GB.
+
+Currently I can see the size of a remote using `git annex info gdrive`, so git-annex appears to have the needed information.
+
+This is sort of like `annex.diskreserve`, but more useful for special remotes where setting an amount of space to keep free is not relevant.
