NAME

6       git-annex-info  -  shows  information  about  the specified item or the
7       repository as a whole
8

SYNOPSIS

10       git annex info [directory|file|treeish|remote|uuid ...]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       Displays statistics and other information for the specified item, which
14       can  be  a directory, or a file, or a treeish, or a remote, or the uuid
15       of a repository.
16
17       When no item is specified, displays statistics and information for  the
18       repository as a whole.
19

OPTIONS

21       --fast
22
23              Only show the data that can be gathered quickly.
24
25       --json Enable  JSON  output.  This is intended to be parsed by programs
26              that use git-annex. Each line of output is a JSON object.
27
28       --json-error-messages
29              Messages that would normally be output  to  standard  error  are
30              included in the json instead.
31
32       --bytes
33              Show file sizes in bytes, disabling the default nicer units.
34
35       --batch
36              Enable  batch  mode,  in which a line containing an item is read
37              from stdin, the information about it is output  to  stdout,  and
38              repeat.
39
40       -z     Makes  the  --batch  input  be delimited by nulls instead of the
41              usual newlines.
42
43       file matching options
44              When a directory is specified, the git-annex-matching-options(1)
45              can  be  used  to  select  the  files  in the directory that are
46              included in the statistics.
47

EXAMPLES

49       Suppose you want to run "git annex get .", but would first like to  see
50       how much disk space that will use.  Then run:
51
52        git annex info --fast . --not --in here
