# NAME
|
|
|
|
git-annex assistant - automatically sync changes
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
git annex assistant
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Watches for changes to files in the current directory and its subdirectories,
|
|
and automatically syncs them to other remotes. This includes adding new
|
|
files. New files published to remotes by others are also automatically
|
|
downloaded.
|
|
|
|
By default, all new files in the directory will be added to the repository.
|
|
(Including dotfiles.) To block some files from being added, 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
|
|
|
|
* `--autostart`
|
|
|
|
Automatically starts the assistant running in each repository listed
|
|
in the file `~/.config/git-annex/autostart`
|
|
|
|
This is typically started at boot, or when you log in.
|
|
|
|
* `--startdelay=N`
|
|
|
|
Wait N seconds before running the startup scan. This process can
|
|
be expensive and you may not want to run it immediately upon login.
|
|
|
|
When --autostart is used, defaults to --startdelay=5.
|
|
|
|
* `--foreground`
|
|
|
|
Avoid forking to the background.
|
|
|
|
* `--stop`
|
|
|
|
Stop a running daemon in the current repository.
|
|
|
|
* `--autostop`
|
|
|
|
The complement to --autostart; stops all running daemons in the
|
|
repositories listed in the autostart file.
|
|
|
|
* Also the [[git-annex-common-options]](1) can be used.
