NAME

6       git-annex-info - information about an item or the repository
7

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

12       Displays statistics and other information for the specified item, which
13       can be a directory, or a file, or  a  treeish,  or  a  remote,  or  the
14       description or uuid of a repository.
15
16       When  no item is specified, displays statistics and information for the
17       local repository and all known annexed files.
18

OPTIONS

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

EXAMPLES

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