@ -26,15 +26,14 @@ that git will use, and also have `remote.name.annexUrl` set to the url
that git-annex will use to talk to `git-annex p2phttp`. That url
looks like this:
annex+http://example.com/git-annex/bbdac17e-6633-4b27-8f7b-fb447d5bae7c
annex+http://example.com/git-annex/
The "annex+http" (or "annex+https") indicates that it's a git-annex API
url, which defaults to being on port 9417 unless a different port is set.
And the last part of the url is the annex.uuid of the repository.
It would be annoying if every user who cloned your repository
had to set `remote.name.annexUrl` manually. So there's a way to automate it.
In the git config file of the repository, set `annex.url` to the "annex+http"
(or "annex+https") url. The first time it uses a http remote, git-annex
downloads the git config file, and sets `remote.name.annexUrl` to the value
of annex.url.
downloads its git config file, and sets `remote.name.annexUrl` to the value
of the remote's `annex.url`.
