This reverts commit a325524454.
Turns out this was predicated on an incorrect belief that json output
didn't already sometimes lack the "key" field. Since json output already
can when `giveup` was used, it seems unncessary to add a whole new
option for this.

# NAME
|
|
|
|
git-annex move - move content of files to/from another repository
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
git annex move `[path ...] [--from=remote|--to=remote|--to=here]`
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Moves the content of files from or to another remote.
|
|
|
|
With no parameters, operates on all annexed files in the current directory.
|
|
Paths of files or directories to operate on can be specified.
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
* `--from=remote`
|
|
|
|
Move the content of files from the specified remote to the local repository.
|
|
|
|
* `--to=remote`
|
|
|
|
Move the content of files from the local repository to the specified remote.
|
|
|
|
* `--to=here`
|
|
|
|
Move the content of files from all reachable remotes to the local
|
|
repository.
|
|
|
|
* `--from=remote1 --to=remote2`
|
|
|
|
Move the content of files that are in remote1 to remote2. Does not change
|
|
what is stored in the local repository.
|
|
|
|
This is implemented by first downloading the content from remote1 to the
|
|
local repository (if not already present), then sending it to remote2, and
|
|
then deleting the content from the local repository (if it was not present
|
|
to start with).
|
|
|
|
* `--force`
|
|
|
|
Override numcopies and required content checking, and always remove
|
|
files from the source repository once the destination repository has a
|
|
copy.
|
|
|
|
Note that, even without this option, you can move the content of a file
|
|
from one repository to another when numcopies is not satisfied, as long
|
|
as the move does not result in there being fewer copies.
|
|
|
|
* `--jobs=N` `-JN`
|
|
|
|
Enables parallel transfers with up to the specified number of jobs
|
|
running at once. For example: `-J10`
|
|
|
|
Setting this to "cpus" will run one job per CPU core.
|
|
|
|
Note that when using --from with --to, twice this many jobs will
|
|
run at once, evenly split between the two remotes.
|
|
|
|
* `--all` `-A`
|
|
|
|
Rather than specifying a filename or path to move, this option can be
|
|
used to move all available versions of all files.
|
|
|
|
This is the default behavior when running git-annex in a bare repository.
|
|
|
|
* `--branch=ref`
|
|
|
|
Operate on files in the specified branch or treeish.
|
|
|
|
* `--unused`
|
|
|
|
Operate on files found by last run of git-annex unused.
|
|
|
|
* `--failed`
|
|
|
|
Operate on files that have recently failed to be transferred.
|
|
|
|
* `--key=keyname`
|
|
|
|
Use this option to move a specified key.
|
|
|
|
* matching options
|
|
|
|
The [[git-annex-matching-options]](1)
|
|
can be used to control what to move.
|
|
|
|
* `--batch`
|
|
|
|
Enables batch mode, in which lines containing names of files to move
|
|
are read from stdin.
|
|
|
|
As each specified file is processed, the usual progress output is
|
|
displayed. If a file's content does not need to be moved,
|
|
or it does not match specified matching options, or it
|
|
is not an annexed file, a blank line is output in response instead.
|
|
|
|
Since the usual output while moving a file is verbose and not
|
|
machine-parseable, you may want to use --json in combination with
|
|
--batch.
|
|
|
|
* `--batch-keys`
|
|
|
|
This is like `--batch` but the lines read from stdin are parsed as keys.
|
|
|
|
* `-z`
|
|
|
|
Makes batch input be delimited by nulls instead of the usual newlines.
|
|
|
|
* `--json`
|
|
|
|
Enable JSON output. This is intended to be parsed by programs that use
|
|
git-annex. Each line of output is a JSON object.
|
|
|
|
* `--json-progress`
|
|
|
|
Include progress objects in JSON output.
|
|
|
|
* `--json-error-messages`
|
|
|
|
Messages that would normally be output to standard error are included in
|
|
the JSON instead.
|
|
|
|
* Also the [[git-annex-common-options]](1) can be used.
