       The remotedaemon provides persistent communication with remotes.

       Several types of remotes are supported:

       For  ssh  remotes, the remotedaemon tries to maintain a connection to the remote git repository, and uses
       git-annex-shell notifychanges to detect when the remote git repository has changed, and  fetches  changes
       from  it.   For  this  to work, the git remote must have git-annex-shell(1) installed, with notifychanges
       support. The first version of git-annex-shell that supports it is 5.20140405.

       For tor-annex remotes, the remotedaemon runs a tor hidden service, accepting connections from other nodes
       and serving up the contents of the repository. This is only done if you first run gitannexenable-tor.
       Use gitannexp2p to configure access to tor-annex remotes.

       Note  that  when  remote.<name>.annex-pull  is set to false, the remotedaemon will avoid fetching changes
       from that remote.

--foreground

              Don't fork to the background, and communicate on stdin/stdout using a simple textual protocol. The
              assistant runs the remotedaemon this way.

              Commands in the protocol include LOSTNET, which tells the remotedaemon that the network connection
              has been lost, and causes it to stop any TCP connctions. That can be followed by RESUME  when  the
              network connection comes back up.

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