git-annex-vicfg 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the git-annex manual pages, General Commands Manual edition ✨ this one is git-annex-vicfg(1) and it's lowkey one of the most underrated little tools in the whole toolbox, fr fr 🎀

NAME 🦋

git-annex-vicfg — edit configuration in git-annex branch

SYNOPSIS ✨

git annex vicfg

that's it. that's the whole vibe. one command, no arguments, no flags of its own, just vibes 💜

DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the tea ☕ — vicfg opens your EDITOR on a temp file that contains all of git-annex's configuration settings stored in the git-annex branch. all of them. the whole girlboss config vault 👑

then, when your editor exits, it stores any changes you made right back to the git-annex branch. no cap. it just does it. 🫶

and the part that makes this actually iconic: unlike git config settings, these configuration settings can be seen by all clones of the repository. yes bestie, every single clone. it's giving "shared consciousness" energy. not me editing config and having the entire repo feel it 😭✨

OPTIONS 💅

• the git-annex-common-options(1) can be used.

that's the whole options section. she's short but she ate. 🍓

SEE ALSO 🌈

• git-annex(1)
• git-config(1)

and that's the whole page, bestie!! this manual is git-annex-vicfg(1) from the git-annex General Commands Manual, and the footer slot is literally just git-annex-vicfg(1) again with the date column sitting there empty — no date, no version, just a mysterious queen who refuses to timestamp herself 💀🎀 mwah, go forth and edit your branch config 🦋💖
