Goal for today was to make `git annex sync --content` operate on files hidden by
|
|
`git annex adjust --hide-missing`. However, this got into the weeds pretty
|
|
quickly due to the problem of how to handle `--content-of=path` when
|
|
either the whole path or some files within it may be hidden.
|
|
|
|
Eventually I discovered that `git ls-files --with-tree` can be used to
|
|
get a combined list of files in the index plus files in another tree,
|
|
which in git-annex's case is the original branch that got adjusted.
|
|
It's not documented to work the way I'm using it (worrying), but it's
|
|
perfect, because git-annex already uses `git ls-files` extensively and this
|
|
could let lots of commands get support for operating on hidden files.
|
|
|
|
That said, I'm going to limit it to `git annex sync` for now,
|
|
because it would be a lot of work to make lots of commands support them,
|
|
and there could easily be commands where supporting them adds lots of
|
|
complexity or room for confusion.

Demo time:
|
|
|
|
joey@darkstar:/tmp> git clone ~/lib/sound/
|
|
Cloning into 'sound'...
|
|
done.
|
|
Checking out files: 100% (45727/45727), done.
|
|
joey@darkstar:/tmp> cd sound/
|
|
joey@darkstar:/tmp/sound> git annex init --version=6
|
|
init (merging origin/git-annex origin/synced/git-annex into git-annex...)
|
|
(scanning for unlocked files...)
|
|
ok
|
|
joey@darkstar:/tmp/sound> git annex adjust --hide-missing
|
|
adjust
|
|
Switched to branch 'adjusted/master(hidemissing)'
