NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

       git annex dropkey [key ...]

DESCRIPTION

       This  plumbing-level  command  drops  the  annexed  data  for the specified keys from this
       repository.

       This can be used to drop content for arbitrary keys, which do not need to have a  file  in
       the git repository pointing at them.

       Warning:  This command does not check that enough other copies of the content exist; using
       it can easily result in data loss.

OPTIONS

       --batch

              Enables batch mode, in which lines containing keys to drop are read from stdin.

       --json Enable JSON output. This is intended to be parsed by programs that  use  git-annex.
              Each line of output is a JSON object.

       --json-error-messages
              Messages  that  would normally be output to standard error are included in the json
              instead.
