@darkfeline, setting buprepo= causes git-annex to run bup with -r.
|
|
You can verify this by using the --debug switch.
|
|
|
|
IIRC, bup still creates ~/.bup when used this way, but doesn't store the
|
|
contents of annexed files there. It uses it only to store some small index
|
|
files, which are also stored in the repo specified with -r. This seems
|
|
weird, but I don't think this is a bug on bup's part; it seems to
|
|
intentionally do that, using path names in ~/.bup that are constructed to
|
|
not conflict when -r is used with different repositories.
|
|
I suppose bup has a good reason to do this, though I don't know what the
|
|
reason is.
|
|
|
|
I can blow ~/.bup away, run "bup init" to make a fresh clean ~/.bup,
|
|
and then git-annex can still get the content of files from the buprepo=
|
|
repository. So, it seems that buprepo= is working ok.
