# git-annex-indirect(1)

switch repository to indirect mode (deprecated)

## NAME

git-annex-indirect - switch repository to indirect mode (deprecated)

## SYNOPSIS

git annex indirect

## DESCRIPTION

This command was used to switch a repository back from direct mode indirect mode.

Now git-annex automatically converts direct mode repositories to v7 with adjusted unlocked branches, so this command does nothing.
