✨ git-annex-addunused ✨

okay bestie, you know that manual page git-annex-addunused(1)? yeah, this one. sit down, grab a strawberry πŸ“, we're bringing files BACK from the void.


🌸 NAME 🌸

git-annex-addunused β€” add back unused files

like, resurrecting your lil orphaned content. it's giving necromancy but make it git πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

git annex addunused [number|range ...]

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so here's the vibe. git annex unused showed you a whole list of content that's just... sitting there. unused. abandoned. no file pointing at it. tragic, honestly. 😭

addunused goes and adds back files for the content that corresponds to the numbers or ranges you give it β€” the same numbers and ranges from the last git annex unused you ran. iykyk.

and the files it makes? they're all gonna have names starting with unused. β€” every single one. no cap.


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • --json β€” turns on JSON output. this is for the programs that parse git-annex, not for your eyeballs, bestie. every line of output is a JSON object. one line, one object, periodt. ✨
  • --json-error-messages β€” the messages that would normally get yeeted to standard error? they get tucked into the JSON instead. everything in one place, so organized. πŸ’…
  • the git-annex-common-options(1) can also be used, obviously. those are the shared ones, always available. 🫢
