git-annex-lock - lock files to prevent modification
Contents
Description
Lock the specified annexed files, to prevent them from being modified. When no files are specified, all
annexed files in the current directory are locked.
Locking a file changes how it is stored in the git repository (from a pointer file to a symlink), so this
command will make a change that you can commit.
