# In this example we are using git-annex specifically to ensure that. # This is ONLY telling you that it can't push the big annex files there. # NOTE: This will put out a warning about ssh because the origin above is ssh. Later, when someone else clones the repo anycodings_git-annex and wants the files: git clone myrepo With git-annex the git repo will just anycodings_git-annex have dead symlinks that contain a SHA256 anycodings_git-annex value for the real file content, and the anycodings_git-annex tooling will bring down the big files. # Again, this will do a lot of committing and pushing so be prepared. Git annex move file* -to myrepo-annexfiles # This puts the content into S3 by SHA256 under the attached to your "special remote": # It also does `git add` on the symlinks, but not the targets. # It replaces the files with symlinks into. # or stashed those to keep them out of the commit.Īdd some files to the annex: # These examples are small for demo. # It will ALSO grab other things so make sure you have committed
#Git annex remote plus
# Warning: this does a commit and push to origin of this branch plus git-annex. # Save the repo updates related to attaching your git annex remote. Git annex initremote myrepo-annexfiles type=S3 # This creates the bucket s3://myrepo-annexfiles-SOME_UUID.

# Select a name that is fitting to be a top-level bucket name. # The first time you use the repo with git-annex someone must link it to S3. # and a `git-annex` metadata branch the tools use behind the scenes. Set up the repo: # Clone your repo "myrepo" This will let you have a git repo anycodings_git-annex "myrepo" with related S3 bucket that anycodings_git-annex holds all of the big files you don't anycodings_git-annex really want in your git repository. On both locations runned lets say 3 anycodings_git-annex timesĪll is merged and you can now cron git anycodings_git-annex annex sync -content in both locations anycodings_git-annex and both have same files in the worktree anycodings_git-annex if you want to track new files you puted anycodings_git-annex in a location you do git add not git anycodings_git-annex annex add git annex add will add the anycodings_git-annex files as so called locked files that anycodings_git-annex makes a totall other workflow 0 T20:57:31+00:00 T20:57:31+00:00 Answer Link In both locations to track current files anycodings_git-annex as so called unlocked files On both location if there are files in anycodings_git-annex both location you need to do git add -all When this setup is ready and there are anycodings_git-annex no extra files in the directory you can anycodings_git-annex now run git annex sync -content Git remote add OtherServerLocationNameIdentifyer ssh:///thedir What is a good way to use git-annex in our anycodings_git-annex workflow?Īs an aside, what are other options that anycodings_git-annex might make such a workflow better/easier to anycodings_git-annex manage?

We often end up with the test data either anycodings_git-annex not being tracked in git or unable to be anycodings_git-annex downloaded from the remote location. The work is reviewed and merged (we use anycodings_git-annex Github for hosting and follow a forking anycodings_git-annex model where all work is done by a developer anycodings_git-annex on their own fork and merged into the main anycodings_git-annex repository through Pull requests)ĭeveloper 2 fetches/merges with upstream and anycodings_git-annex tries to run the tests on his machine. Although we have been anycodings_git-annex able to set it up and use it, we have had anycodings_git-annex our set of troubles.Ī common action that we frequently perform anycodings_git-annex that has given us trouble is:ĭeveloper 1 adds some tests for a new anycodings_git-annex feature and adds corresponding data for the anycodings_git-annex tests using git-annex. Our development team has been using git for anycodings_git-annex version control and using git-annex to store anycodings_git-annex large binary files (data-binaries, images, anycodings_git-annex test-binaries etc).
