assist: New command, which is the same as git-annex sync but with new files added and content transferred by default. (Also this fixes another reversion in git-annex sync, --commit --no-commit, and --message were not enabled, oops.) See added comment for why git-annex assist does commit staged changes elsewhere in the work tree, but only adds files under the cwd. Note that it does not support --no-commit, --no-push, --no-pull like sync does. My thinking is, why should it? If you want that level of control, use git commit, git annex push, git annex pull. Sync only got those options because pull and push were not split out. Sponsored-by: k0ld on Patreon

# NAME
|
|
|
|
git-annex assist - add files and sync changes with remotes
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
git annex assist `[remote ...]`
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This command assists you in checking files into the repository
|
|
and syncing with remotes. It's the simplest possible way to use git-annex
|
|
at the command line, since only this one command needs to be run on a
|
|
regular basis.
|
|
|
|
This command first adds any new files (in the current directory and
|
|
its children) to the repository, and commits those as well as any
|
|
modified files. Then it does the equivilant of running
|
|
[[git-annex-pull](1) followed by [[git-annex-push]](1).
|
|
|
|
To block some files from being added to the repository, use `.gitignore`
|
|
files.
|
|
|
|
By default, all files that are added are added to the annex, the same
|
|
as when you run `git annex add`. If you configure annex.largefiles,
|
|
files that it does not match will instead be added with `git add`.
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
* `--message=msg`
|
|
|
|
Use this option to specify a commit message.
|
|
|
|
* Also all options supported by [[git-annex-pull]](1) and
|
|
[[git-annex-push]](1) can be used.
|
|
|
|
* Also the [[git-annex-common-options]](1) can be used.
