# rclone gitannex
|
|
|
|
Speaks with git-annex over stdin/stdout.
|
|
|
|
## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
Rclone's `gitannex` subcommand enables [git-annex] to store and retrieve content
|
|
from an rclone remote. It is meant to be run by git-annex, not directly by
|
|
users.

|
|
|
Installation on Linux
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
1. Skip this step if your version of git-annex is [10.20240430] or newer.
|
|
Otherwise, you must create a symlink somewhere on your PATH with a particular
|
|
name. This symlink helps git-annex tell rclone it wants to run the "gitannex"
|
|
subcommand.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Create the helper symlink in "$HOME/bin".
|
|
ln -s "$(realpath rclone)" "$HOME/bin/git-annex-remote-rclone-builtin"
|
|
|
|
# Verify the new symlink is on your PATH.
|
|
which git-annex-remote-rclone-builtin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
[10.20240430]: https://git-annex.branchable.com/news/version_10.20240430/
|
|
|
|
2. Add a new remote to your git-annex repo. This new remote will connect
|
|
git-annex with the `rclone gitannex` subcommand.
|
|
|
|
Start by asking git-annex to describe the remote's available configuration
|
|
parameters.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# If you skipped step 1:
|
|
git annex initremote MyRemote type=rclone --whatelse
|
|
|
|
# If you created a symlink in step 1:
|
|
git annex initremote MyRemote type=external externaltype=rclone-builtin --whatelse
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> **NOTE**: If you're porting an existing [git-annex-remote-rclone] remote to
|
|
> use `rclone gitannex`, you can probably reuse the configuration parameters
|
|
> verbatim without renaming them. Check parameter synonyms with `--whatelse`
|
|
> as shown above.
|
|

|
|
|
|
The following example creates a new git-annex remote named "MyRemote" that
|
|
will use the rclone remote named "SomeRcloneRemote". That rclone remote must
|
|
be one configured in your rclone.conf file, which can be located with `rclone
|
|
config file`.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git annex initremote MyRemote \
|
|
type=external \
|
|
externaltype=rclone-builtin \
|
|
encryption=none \
|
|
rcloneremotename=SomeRcloneRemote \
|
|
rcloneprefix=git-annex-content \
|
|
rclonelayout=nodir
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Before you trust this command with your precious data, be sure to **test the
|
|
remote**. This command is very new and has not been tested on many rclone
|
|
backends. Caveat emptor!
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
git annex testremote MyRemote
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Happy annexing!
