Added the ability to run one job per CPU (core), by setting annex.jobs=cpus, or using option --jobs=cpus or -Jcpus. Built with future expansion in mind, including not defaulting matching on Concurrency so more constructors can later be added, and using "cpu" instead of "0".

# NAME
|
|
|
|
git-annex copy - copy content of files to/from another repository
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
git annex copy `[path ...] [--from=remote|--to=remote]`
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Copies the content of files from or to another remote.
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
* `--from=remote`
|
|
|
|
Copy the content of files from the specified
|
|
remote to the local repository.
|
|
|
|
Any files that are not available on the remote will be silently skipped.
|
|
|
|
* `--to=remote`
|
|
|
|
Copy the content of files from the local repository
|
|
to the specified remote.
|
|
|
|
* `--to=here`
|
|
|
|
Copy the content of files from all reachable remotes to the local
|
|
repository.
|
|
|
|
* `--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.
|
|
|
|
* `--auto`
|
|
|
|
Rather than copying all files, only copy files that don't yet have
|
|
the desired number of copies, or that are preferred content of the
|
|
destination repository. See [[git-annex-preferred-content]](1)
|
|
|
|
* `--fast`
|
|
|
|
When copying content to a remote, avoid a round trip to check if the remote
|
|
already has content. This can be faster, but might skip copying content
|
|
to the remote in some cases.
|
|
|
|
* `--all` `-A`
|
|
|
|
Rather than specifying a filename or path to copy, this option can be
|
|
used to copy 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.
|
|
|
|
* file matching options
|
|
|
|
The [[git-annex-matching-options]](1)
|
|
can be used to specify files to copy.
|
|
|
|
* `--batch`
|
|
|
|
Enables batch mode, in which lines containing names of files to copy
|
|
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 copied, 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 copying a file is verbose and not
|
|
machine-parseable, you may want to use --json in combination with
|
|
--batch.
|
|
|
|
* `-z`
|
|
|
|
Makes the `--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.
