# NAME
|
|
|
|
git-annex export - export content to a remote
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
git annex export `treeish --to remote`
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Use this command to export a tree of files from a git-annex repository.
|
|
|
|
Normally files are stored on a git-annex special remote named by their
|
|
keys. That is great for data storage, but your filenames are obscured.
|
|
Exporting replicates the tree to the special remote as-is.
|
|
|
|
Mixing key/value and exports in the same remote would be a mess and so is
|
|
not allowed. So, you have to configure a remote with `exporttree=true`
|
|
when initially setting it up with [[git-annex-initremote]](1).
|
|
|
|
Repeated exports are done efficiently, by diffing the old and new tree,
|
|
and transferring only the changed files.
|
|
|
|
Exports can be interrupted and resumed. However, partially uploaded files
|
|
will be re-started from the beginning.
