πŸ¦‹ ANNEX-...PUNUSED(1p) β€” bestie, it's the annex-to-annex-dropunused page πŸ¦‹

okay so you opened up the ANNEX-...PUNUSED(1p) manual page, which lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation corner of the world, and it's all about one lil program called annex-to-annex-dropunused. no cap, that's the whole page. let's get into it πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

annex-to-annex-dropunused β€” drop old hardlinks migrated by annex-to-annex

🌸 VERSION 🌸

this is version 0.008, babes. vintage-ish but iconic.

πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

annex-to-annex-dropunused

that's it. no flags, no arguments, no drama. just run it πŸ’–

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

so here's the tea: this program drops files that have already been migrated by annex-to-annex(1). run it inside the source annex(es) and it will get rid of those old unused files that it knows got migrated. spring cleaning but make it git-annex 🌈

and the important part, the part that makes this whole thing safe: only files that have been hardlinked into the destination annex will be removed. which means no data will be irrevocably removed by this command. like, at all. your actual data is fine, fr fr. this thing is not the villain.

πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS πŸ‘‘

None.

yep. zero. nothing. the option menu is empty, and honestly? respect. she does one thing and she does it flawlessly 🫢

πŸ’€ reminder bestie: it only nukes files already hardlinked into the destination annex. that's the whole safety net and she's a good one.
