### Please describe the problem.
|
|
|
|
Git annex lock discards data without --force; this is misleading from the name.
|
|
|
|
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
|
|
|
|
git annex unlock something.txt
|
|
kwrite something.txt # edit
|
|
git annex lock something.txt # lock is the opposite of unlock, right?
|
|
|
|
Oops, just lost my changes!
|
|
|
|
If you want my opinion, `git annex lock` should either require `-f` to throw away data or should be renamed (e.g. to `revert` or `checkout`).

|
|
### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
|
|
|
|
git version 1.8.1.2, git-annex version: 4.20130815, Kubuntu 13.04
