When --batch is used with matching options like --in, --metadata, etc, only operate on the provided files when they match those options. Otherwise, a blank line is output in the batch protocol. Affected commands: find, add, whereis, drop, copy, move, get In the case of find, the documentation for --batch already said it honored the matching options. The docs for the rest didn't, but it makes sense to have them honor them. While this is a behavior change, why specify the matching options with --batch if you didn't want them to apply? Note that the batch output for all of the affected commands could already output a blank line in other cases, so batch users should already be prepared to deal with it. git-annex metadata didn't seem worth making support the matching options, since all it does is output metadata or set metadata, the use cases for using it in combination with the martching options seem small. Made it refuse to run when they're combined, leaving open the possibility for later support if a use case develops. This commit was sponsored by Brett Eisenberg on Patreon.

# OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
* file matching options
|
|
|
|
The [[git-annex-matching-options]](1)
|
|
can be used to specify files to act on.
|
|
|
|
* `--key=keyname`
|
|
|
|
Show where a particular git-annex key is located.
|
|
|
|
* `--all` `-A`
|
|
|
|
Show whereis information for all known keys.
|
|
|
|
* `--branch=ref`
|
|
|
|
Show whereis information for files in the specified branch or treeish.
|
|
|
|
* `--unused`
|
|
|

Show whereis information for files found by last run of git-annex unused.
|
|
|
|
* `--batch`
|
|
|
|
Enables batch mode, in which a file is read in a line from stdin,
|
|
its information displayed, and repeat.
