--branch, stage 1
Added --branch option to copy, drop, fsck, get, metadata, mirror, move, and
whereis commands. This option makes git-annex operate on files that are
included in a specified branch (or other treeish).

The names of the files from the branch that are being operated on are not
displayed yet; only the keys. Displaying the filenames will need changes
to every affected command.

Also, note that --branch can be specified repeatedly. This is not really
documented, but seemed worth supporting, especially since we may later want
the ability to operate on all branches matching a refspec. However, when
operating on two branches that contain the same key, that key will be
operated on twice.

# NAME
git-annex move - move content of files to/from another repository
# SYNOPSIS
git annex move `[path ...] [--from=remote|--to=remote]`
# DESCRIPTION
Moves the content of files from or to another remote.
# OPTIONS
* `--from=remote`
Use this option to move the content of files from the specified
remote to the local repository.
* `--to=remote`
Use this option to move the content of files from the local repository
to the specified remote.
* `--jobs=N` `-JN`
Enables parallel transfers with up to the specified number of jobs
running at once. For example: `-J10`
* `--all`
Rather than specifying a filename or path to move, this option can be
used to move all available versions of all files.
This is the default behavior when running git-annex in a bare repository.
* `--branch=ref`
Operate on files in the specified branch or treeish.
* `--unused`
Operate on files found by last run of git-annex unused.
* `--key=keyname`
Use this option to move a specified key.
* file matching options
The [[git-annex-matching-options]](1)
can be used to specify files to move.
