* unannex, uninit: Avoid committing after every file is unannexed, for massive speedup. * --notify-finish switch will cause desktop notifications after each file upload/download/drop completes (using the dbus Desktop Notifications Specification) * --notify-start switch will show desktop notifications when each file upload/download starts. * webapp: Automatically install Nautilus integration scripts to get and drop files. * tahoe: Pass -d parameter before subcommand; putting it after the subcommand no longer works with tahoe-lafs version 1.10. (Thanks, Alberto Berti) * forget --drop-dead: Avoid removing the dead remote from the trust.log, so that if git remotes for it still exist anywhere, git annex info will still know it's dead and not show it. * git-annex-shell: Make configlist automatically initialize a remote git repository, as long as a git-annex branch has been pushed to it, to simplify setup of remote git repositories, including via gitolite. * add --include-dotfiles: New option, perhaps useful for backups. * Version 5.20140227 broke creation of glacier repositories, not including the datacenter and vault in their configuration. This bug is fixed, but glacier repositories set up with the broken version of git-annex need to have the datacenter and vault set in order to be usable. This can be done using git annex enableremote to add the missing settings. For details, see http://git-annex.branchable.com/bugs/problems_with_glacier/ * Added required content configuration. * assistant: Improve ssh authorized keys line generated in local pairing or for a remote ssh server to set environment variables in an alternative way that works with the non-POSIX fish shell, as well as POSIX shells. # imported from the archive

git-annex is now available for Android. This includes the
|
|
[[git-annex assistant|/assistant]], for easy syncing between your Android
|
|
and other devices. You do not need to root your Android to use git-annex.
|
|
|
|
[[Android installation instructions|/install/android]]
|
|
|
|
When you run the git-annex Android app, two windows will open. The first is
|
|
a terminal window, and the second is a web browser showing the git-annex
|
|
webapp.
|
|
|
|
[[!img apps.png alt="two windows"]]
|
|
|
|
[[!toc ]]
|
|
|
|
## closing and reopening the webapp
|
|
|
|
The webapp does not need to be left open after you've set up your
|
|
repository. As long as the terminal window is left open, git-annex will
|
|
remain running and sync your files. To re-open the webapp after closing it,
|
|
use the [[!img newwindow.png alt="New Window"]] icon in the terminal window.
|
|
|
|
## starting git-annex
|
|
|
|
The app is not currently automatically started on boot, so you will need to
|
|
manually open it to keep your files in sync. You do not need to leave the
|
|
app running all the time, though. It will sync back up automatically when
|
|
started.
|
|
|
|
## stopping git-annex
|
|
|
|
Simply close the terminal window to stop git-annex from running.
|
|
|
|
## using the command line
|
|
|
|
[[!img terminal.png alt="Android terminal"]]
|
|
|
|
If you prefer to use `git-annex` at the command line, you can do so using the
|
|
terminal. A fairly full set of tools is provided, including `git`, `ssh`,
|
|
`rsync`, and `gpg`.
|
|
|
|
To prevent the webapp from being automatically started
|
|
when a terminal window opens, go into the terminal preferences, to "Inital
|
|
Command", and clear out the default `git annex webapp` setting.
|
|
|
|
Or, if you'd like to run the assistant automatically, but not open the
|
|
webapp, change the "Initial Command" to: `git annex assistant --autostart`
|
|
|
|
## using from adb shell
|
|
|
|
To set up the git-annex environment from within `adb shell`, run:
|
|
`/data/data/ga.androidterm/runshell`
|
|
|
|
This will launch a shell that has git-annex, git, etc in PATH.
