# git-annex-reregisterurl(1)

updates url registration information

## NAME

git-annex-reregisterurl - updates url registration information

## SYNOPSIS

git annex reregisterurl **\[key\]**

## DESCRIPTION

This plumbing-level command updates information about the urls that are registered for a key.

## OPTIONS

- **--move-from=name\|uuid**

  -

  For each key, update any urls that are currently claimed by the specified remote to be instead used by the web special remote.

-

  This could be used eg, when a special remote was needed to provide authorization to get an url, but the url has now become publically available and so the web special remote can be used.

-

  Note that, like **git-annex unregisterurl**, using this option unregisters an url from a special remote, but it does not mark the content as not present in that special remote. However, like **git-annex registerurl**, this option does mark content as being present in the web special remote.

-

  - **--batch**

  In batch input mode, lines are read from stdin, and each line should contain a key.

-

  - **-z**

  When in batch mode, the input is 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-error-messages**

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

-

  - Also the [git-annex-common-options(1)](/git-annex-common-options/1.md) can be used.
