@rob.syme, the reason that does not work when using encryption
|
|
is that git-annex internally generates an encrypted key, and stores
|
|
that on IPFS. The ipfs special remote records the IPFS address
|
|
that can be used for a key, but it's recorded on the encrypted
|
|
key, which is not the one you're querying with whereis.
|
|
|
|
This is a general problem with git-annex; ipfs is probably the
|
|
first special remote that exposes the problem.
|
|
|
|
Anyway, I'm not sure what benefit knowing the IPFS address of a file
|
|
encrypted by git-annex is. You need to use git-annex to decrypt it, in
|
|
general. You might be able to use your gpg key to decrypt it, if the
|
|
special remote was set up using pubkey encryption, but that's not going to
|
|
help anyone else you give the IPFS address to access the encrypted data..
|
|
|
|
Does your use case involve pinning the IPFS address, or something like
|
|
that?
