git-annex-dead - hide a lost repository or key
Contents
Description
This command exists to deal with situations where data has been lost, and you know it has, and you want
to stop being reminded of that fact.
When a repository is specified, indicates that the repository has been irretrievably lost, so it will not
be listed in eg, gitannexwhereis. Repositories can be specified using their remote name, their
description, or their UUID. (To undo, use git-annexsemitrust.)
When a key is specified, indicates that the content of that key has been irretrievably lost. This makes
the key be skipped when operating on all keys with eg --all. (To undo, add the key's content back to the
repository, by using eg, git-annexreinject.)
