git-annex-get(1)

NAME

   git-annex-get - make content of annexed files available

SYNOPSIS

   git annex get [path ...]

DESCRIPTION

   Makes  the  content of annexed files available in this repository. This
   will involve copying them from  a  remote  repository,  or  downloading
   them, or transferring them from some kind of key-value store.

OPTIONS

   --auto

          Rather  than  getting  all  files, get only files that don't yet
          have the desired number of copies, or that are preferred content
          of the repository. See git-annex-preferred-content(1)

   --from=remote
          Normally  git-annex will choose which remotes to get the content
          from. Use this option to specify which remote to use.

          Any files that are not available on the remote will be  silently
          skipped.

   --jobs=N -JN
          Enables  parallel  download  with  up to the specified number of
          jobs running at once. For example: -J10

   --incomplete
          Resume any incomplete downloads of files that were  started  and
          interrupted  at  some  point previously. Useful to pick up where
          you left off ... when you don't quite remember where that was.

          These incomplete files are the same  ones  that  are  listed  as
          unused temp files by git-annex-unused(1).

          Note  that the git-annex key will be displayed when downloading,
          as  git-annex  does  not  know  the  associated  file,  and  the
          associated  file  may  not  even  be  in the current git working
          directory.

   file matching options
          The git-annex-matching-options(1) can be used to  specify  files
          to get.

   --all  Rather  than  specifying  a filename or path to get, this option
          can be used to get all available versions of all files.

          This is the default behavior when running git-annex  in  a  bare
          repository.

   --unused
          Operate on files found by last run of git-annex unused.

   --key=keyname
          Use this option to get a specified key.

   --batch
          Enables  batch mode, in which lines containing names of files to
          get are read from stdin.

          As each specified file is processed, the usual  progress  output
          is  displayed.  If  the  specified  file's  content  is  already
          present, or it is not an annexed file, a blank line is output in
          response instead.

          Since  the usual progress output while getting a file is verbose
          and not  machine-parseable,  you  may  want  to  use  --json  in
          combination with --batch.

   --json Enable  JSON  output.  This is intended to be parsed by programs
          that use git-annex. Each line of output is a JSON object.
