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 watch - watch for changes
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
git annex watch
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Watches for changes to files in the current directory and its subdirectories,
|
|
and takes care of automatically adding new files, as well as dealing with
|
|
deleted, copied, and moved files. With this running as a daemon in the
|
|
background, you no longer need to manually run git commands when
|
|
manipulating your files.
|
|
|
|
By default, all files in the directory will be added to the repository.
|
|
(Including dotfiles.) To block some files from being added, use
|
|
`.gitignore` files.
|
|
|
|
By default, all files that are added are added to the annex, the same
|
|
as when you run `git annex add`. If you configure annex.largefiles,
|
|
files that it does not match will instead be added with `git add`.
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
* `--foreground`
|
|
|
|
Avoid forking to the background.
|
|
|
|
* `--stop`
|
|
|
|
Stop a running daemon in the current repository.
|
|
|
|
* Also the [[git-annex-common-options]](1) can be used.
