NAME

6       git-annex-dropkey - drops annexed content for specified keys
7

SYNOPSIS

9       git annex dropkey [key ...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This  plumbing-level  command  drops the annexed data for the specified
13       keys from this repository.
14
15       This can be used to drop content for arbitrary keys, which do not  need
16       to have a file in the git repository pointing at them.
17
18       Warning:  This  command  does not check that enough other copies of the
19       content exist; using it can easily result in data loss.

OPTIONS

22       --batch
23
24              Enables batch mode, in which lines containing keys to  drop  are
25              read from stdin.
26
27       --json Enable  JSON  output.  This is intended to be parsed by programs
28              that use git-annex. Each line of output is a JSON object.
29
30       --json-error-messages
31              Messages that would normally be output to standard error are in‐
32              cluded in the JSON instead.
33
34       Also the git-annex-common-options(1) can be used.
