Sometimes users would get confused because an option they were looking for was not mentioned on a subcommand's man page, and they had not noticed that the main git-annex man page had a list of common options. This change lets each subcommand mention the common options, similarly to how the matching options are handled. This commit was sponsored by Svenne Krap on Patreon.

# NAME
|
|
|
|
git-annex whereis - lists repositories that have file content
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
git annex whereis `[path ...]`
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Displays information about where the contents of files are located.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
# git annex whereis
|
|
whereis my_cool_big_file (1 copy)
|
|
0c443de8-e644-11df-acbf-f7cd7ca6210d -- laptop
|
|
whereis other_file (3 copies)
|
|
0c443de8-e644-11df-acbf-f7cd7ca6210d -- laptop
|
|
62b39bbe-4149-11e0-af01-bb89245a1e61 -- usb drive [here]
|
|
7570b02e-15e9-11e0-adf0-9f3f94cb2eaa -- backup drive
|
|
|
|
Note that this command does not contact remotes to verify if they still
|
|
have the content of files. It only reports on the last information that was
|
|
received from remotes.
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
* file matching options
|
|
|
|
The [[git-annex-matching-options]](1)
|
|
can be used to specify files to act on.
|
|
|
|
* `--key=keyname`
|
|
|
|
Show where a particular git-annex key is located.
|
|
|
|
* `--all` `-A`
|
|
|
|
Show whereis information for all known keys.
|
|
|
|
* `--branch=ref`
|
|
|
|
Show whereis information for files in the specified branch or treeish.
|
|
|
|
* `--unused`
|
|
|
|
Show whereis information for files found by last run of git-annex unused.
|
|
|
|
* `--batch`
|
|
|
|
Enables batch mode, in which a file is read in a line from stdin,
|
|
its information displayed, and repeat.
|
|
|
|
Note that if the file is not an annexed file, or does not match
|
|
specified file matching options, an empty line will be
|
|
output instead.
|
|
|
|
* `-z`
|
|
|
|
Makes the `--batch` input be delimited by nulls instead of the usual
|
|
newlines.
|
|
|
|
* `--json`
|
|
|
|
Enable JSON output. This is intended to be parsed by programs that use
|
|
git-annex. Each line of output is a JSON object.
|
|
|
|
* `--json-error-messages`
|
|
|
|
Messages that would normally be output to standard error are included in
|
|
the json instead.
|
|
|
|
* `--format=value`
|
|
|
|
Use custom output formatting.
|
|
|
|
The value is a format string, in which '${var}' is expanded to the
|
|
value of a variable. To right-justify a variable with whitespace,
|
|
use '${var;width}' ; to left-justify a variable, use '${var;-width}';
|
|
to escape unusual characters in a variable, use '${escaped_var}'
|
|
|
|
These variables are available for use in formats: file, key, uuid,
|
|
url, backend, bytesize, humansize, keyname, hashdirlower, hashdirmixed,
|
|
mtime (for the mtime field of a WORM key).
|
|
|
|
Also, '\\n' is a newline, '\\000' is a NULL, etc.
|
|
|
|
When the format contains the uuid variable, it will be expanded in turn
|
|
for each repository that contains the file content. For example,
|
|
with --format="${file} ${uuid}\\n", output will look like:
|
|
|
|
foo 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001
|
|
foo a7f7ddd0-9a08-11ea-ab66-8358e4209d30
|
|
bar a7f7ddd0-9a08-11ea-ab66-8358e4209d30
|
|
|
|
The same applies when the url variable is used and a file has multiple
|
|
recorded urls.
|
|
|
|
* Also the [[git-annex-common-options]](1) can be used.
