gitannex

Documentation

Overview

Package gitannex provides the "gitannex" command, which enables git-annex to communicate with rclone by implementing the external special remote protocol. The protocol is line delimited and spoken over stdin and stdout.

Milestones

(Tracked in issue #7625.)

1. ✅ Minimal support for the external special remote protocol. Tested on "local" and "drive" backends.
2. Add support for the ASYNC protocol extension. This may improve performance.
3. Support the simple export interface. This will enable `git-annex export` functionality.
4. Once the draft is finalized, support import/export interface.
