Before I run a command that get new content in a repository -- especially with the --auto flag -- is there a way to find out the size of the data to be copied? My case is simple. I'm just using USB sticks/drives. But I never know if the space is enough for the next get --auto command...
git annex info --fast . --not --in here --and --want-get(adapted from the example here: https://git-annex.branchable.com/git-annex-info/).I've just got the chance to test it and yes, that command works. I didn't know about the
--want-getflag ( git-annex-matching-options(1) ). Also the--fastflag for thegit annex infowould make me run that command more often now :). Thanks!
