send content of files to other repositories

NAME

git-annex-put - send content of files to other repositories

SYNOPSIS

git annex put [path ...]

DESCRIPTION

Sends the content of annexed files to remotes. By default, files are sent to all remotes (except for certian special remotes that have to be populated using git-annex export).

With no parameters, operates on all annexed files in the current directory. Paths of files or directories to operate on can be specified.

OPTIONS

--wanted -w

Send files only to remotes that want them. See git-annex-preferred-content(1)

--auto

Only send files to remotes that want them, or when there are not yet the desired number of copies.

--fast

Only send files to remotes with the lowest annex-cost value configured.

--jobs=N -JN

Enables parallel transfers with up to the specified number of jobs running at once. For example: -J10

Setting this to "cpus" will run one job per CPU core.

--all -A

Rather than specifying a filename or path to send, this option can be used to send all available versions of all files.

This is the default behavior when running git-annex in a bare repository.

--branch=ref

Operate on files in the specified branch or treeish.

--unused

Operate on files found by last run of git-annex unused.

--failed

Operate on files that have recently failed to be transferred.

--key=keyname

Use this option to send a specified key.

matching options

The git-annex-matching-options(1) can be used to specify what to send.

--batch

Enables batch mode, in which lines containing names of files to send are read from stdin.

As each specified file is processed, the usual progress output is displayed. If a file's content does not need to be sent, or it does not match specified matching options, or it is not an annexed file, a blank line is output in response instead.

Since the usual output while sending a file is verbose and not machine-parseable, you may want to use --json in combination with --batch.

--batch-keys

This is like --batch but the lines read from stdin are parsed as keys.

-z

Makes batch input be delimited by nulls instead of the usual newlines.

--json

Enable JSON output. This is intended to be parsed by programs that use git-annex. Each line of output is a JSON object.

--json-progress

Include progress objects in JSON output.

--json-error-messages

Messages that would normally be output to standard error are included in the JSON instead.

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