# NAME
|
|
|
|
git-annex whereused - find what files use, or used a key
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
git annex whereused `--key=keyname|--unused`
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Finds what files use, or used a key.
|
|
|
|
For each file in the working tree that uses a key, this outputs one line,
|
|
starting with the key, then a space, and then the name of the file.
|
|
When multiple files use the same key, they will all be listed. When
|
|
nothing is found that uses the key, there will be no output.
|
|
|
|
The default is to find only files in the current working tree that use a
|
|
key. The `--historical` option makes it also find past versions of files.
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
* `--key=keyname`
|
|
|
|
Operate on this key.
|
|
|
|
* `--unused`
|
|
|
|
Operate on keys found by last run of git-annex unused.
|
|
|
|
Usually these keys won't be used by any files in the current working
|
|
tree, or any tags or branches. Combining this option with `--historical`
|
|
will find past uses of the keys.
|
|
|
|
* `--historical`
|
|
|
|
When no files in the current working tree use a key, this causes more
|
|
work to be done, looking at past versions of the current branch, other
|
|
branches, tags, and the reflog, to find somewhere that the key was used.
|
|
It stops after finding one use of the key, and outputs a git rev that
|
|
refers to where it was used, eg "HEAD@{40}:somefile"
