Sometimes users would get confused because an option they were looking for was not mentioned on a subcommand's man page, and they had not noticed that the main git-annex man page had a list of common options. This change lets each subcommand mention the common options, similarly to how the matching options are handled. This commit was sponsored by Svenne Krap on Patreon.

# NAME
|
|
|
|
git-annex find - lists available files
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
git annex find `[path ...]`
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Outputs a list of annexed files in the specified path. With no path,
|
|
finds files in the current directory and its subdirectories.
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
* matching options
|
|
|
|
The [[git-annex-matching-options]](1)
|
|
can be used to specify files to list.
|
|
|
|
By default, the find command only lists annexed files whose content is
|
|
currently present. Specifying any of the matching options will override
|
|
this default behavior.
|
|
|
|
To list all annexed files, present or not, specify `--include "*"`.
|
|
|
|
To list annexed files whose content is not present, specify `--not --in=here`
|
|
|
|
* `--branch=ref`
|
|
|
|
List files in the specified branch or treeish.
|
|
|
|
* `--print0`
|
|
|
|
Output filenames terminated with nulls, for use with `xargs -0`
|
|
|
|
* `--format=value`
|
|
|
|
Use custom output formatting.
|
|
|
|
The value is a format string, in which '${var}' is expanded to the
|
|
value of a variable. To right-justify a variable with whitespace,
|
|
use '${var;width}' ; to left-justify a variable, use '${var;-width}';
|
|
to escape unusual characters in a variable, use '${escaped_var}'
|
|
|
|
These variables are available for use in formats: file, key, backend,
|
|
bytesize, humansize, keyname, hashdirlower, hashdirmixed, mtime (for
|
|
the mtime field of a WORM key).
|
|
|
|
Also, '\\n' is a newline, '\\000' is a NULL, etc.
|
|
|
|
The default output format is the same as `--format='${file}\\n'`
|
|
|
|
* `--json`
|
|
|
|
Output the list of files in JSON format.
|
|
|
|
This is intended to be parsed by programs that use
|
|
git-annex. Each line of output is a JSON object.
|
|
|
|
* `--json-error-messages`
|
|
|
|
Messages that would normally be output to standard error are included in
|
|
the json instead.
|
|
|
|
* `--batch`
|
|
|
|
Enables batch mode, in which a file is read in a line from stdin,
|
|
its information displayed, and repeat.
|
|
|
|
Note that if the file is not an annexed file, or is not present,
|
|
or otherwise doesn't meet the matching options, an empty line
|
|
will be output instead.
|
|
|
|
* `-z`
|
|
|
|
Makes the `--batch` input be delimited by nulls instead of the usual
|
|
newlines.
|
|
|
|
* Also the [[git-annex-common-options]](1) can be used.
