NAME

       datalad rerun - re-execute previous `datalad run` commands.

SYNOPSIS

       datalad  rerun  [-h]  [--since  SINCE]  [-d  DATASET] [-b NAME] [-m MESSAGE] [--onto base]
              [--script  FILE]  [--report]  [--assume-ready  {inputs|outputs|both}]  [--explicit]
              [-J NJOBS] [--version] [REVISION]

DESCRIPTION

       This  will  unlock  any  dataset  content  that  is on record to have been modified by the
       command in the specified revision.  It will then re-execute the command  in  the  recorded
       path (if it was inside the dataset). Afterwards, all modifications will be saved.

   Report mode
       When  called  with  --report,  this  command  reports  information  about  what  would  be
       re-executed as a series of records. There will be  a  record  for  each  revision  in  the
       specified  revision  range.  Each  of  these will have one of the following "rerun_action"
       values:

       - run: the revision has a recorded command that would be re-executed -  skip-or-pick:  the
       revision does not have a recorded command and would
         be  either  skipped  or  cherry  picked  -  merge:  the revision is a merge commit and a
       corresponding merge would
         be made

       The decision to skip rather than cherry pick a revision is based on whether  the  revision
       would be reachable from HEAD at the time of execution.

       In  addition,  when a starting point other than HEAD is specified, there is a rerun_action
       value "checkout", in which case the record includes information  about  the  revision  the
       would be checked out before rerunning any commands.

       NOTE   Currently the "onto" feature only sets the working tree of the current dataset to a
              previous state. The working trees of any subdatasets remain unchanged.

   Examples
       Re-execute the command from the previous commit::

        % datalad rerun

       Re-execute any commands in the last five commits::

        % datalad rerun --since=HEAD~5

       Do the same as above, but re-execute the commands on top of HEAD~5 in a detached state::

        % datalad rerun --onto= --since=HEAD~5

       Re-execute all previous commands and compare the old and new results::

        % # on master branch
        % datalad rerun --branch=verify --since=
        % # now on verify branch
        % datalad diff --revision=master..
        % git log --oneline --left-right --cherry-pick master...

OPTIONS

       REVISION
              rerun command(s) in REVISION. By default, the command  from  this  commit  will  be
              executed,  but --since can be used to construct a revision range. The default value
              is like "HEAD" but resolves  to  the  main  branch  when  on  an  adjusted  branch.
              Constraints: value must be a string or value must be NONE

       -h, --help, --help-np
              show  this  help  message.  --help-np  forcefully  disables  the use of a pager for
              displaying the help message

       --since SINCE
              If SINCE is a commit-ish, the commands from all commits  that  are  reachable  from
              `revision`  but  not SINCE will be re-executed (in other words, the commands in git
              log SINCE..REVISION). If SINCE is an empty string, it is set to the parent  of  the
              first  commit  that  contains  a  recorded  command  (i.e., all commands in git log
              REVISION will be re-executed). Constraints: value must be a string or value must be
              NONE

       -d DATASET, --dataset DATASET
              specify the dataset from which to rerun a recorded command. If no dataset is given,
              an attempt is made to identify the dataset based on the current working  directory.
              If  a  dataset is given, the command will be executed in the root directory of this
              dataset. Constraints: Value must be a Dataset or a valid identifier  of  a  Dataset
              (e.g. a path) or value must be NONE

       -b NAME, --branch NAME
              create  and  checkout this branch before rerunning the commands. Constraints: value
              must be a string or value must be NONE

       -m MESSAGE, --message MESSAGE
              use MESSAGE for the reran commit rather than the recorded commit  message.  In  the
              case  of  a  multi-commit  rerun,  all  the  reran  commits will have this message.
              Constraints: value must be a string or value must be NONE

       --onto base
              start point for rerunning the commands. If not specified, commands are executed  at
              HEAD.  This option can be used to specify an alternative start point, which will be
              checked out with the branch name specified by  --branch  or  in  a  detached  state
              otherwise.  As  a  special case, an empty value for this option means the parent of
              the first run commit in the specified revision list. Constraints: value must  be  a
              string or value must be NONE

       --script FILE
              extract  the  commands  into  FILE  rather than rerunning. Use - to write to stdout
              instead. This option implies --report. Constraints: value must be a string or value
              must be NONE

       --report
              Don't  actually  re-execute anything, just display what would be done. Note: If you
              give this option, you  most  likely  want  to  set  --output-format  to  'json'  or
              'json_pp'.

       --assume-ready {inputs|outputs|both}
              Assume  that  inputs  do  not  need  to  be retrieved and/or outputs do not need to
              unlocked or removed before running the command. This option allows you to avoid the
              expense of these preparation steps if you know that they are unnecessary. Note that
              this option also affects any additional outputs  that  are  automatically  inferred
              based on inspecting changed files in the run commit. Constraints: value must be one
              of ('inputs', 'outputs', 'both')

       --explicit
              Consider the specification of inputs and outputs in the run record to be  explicit.
              Don't  warn  if the repository is dirty, and only save modifications to the outputs
              from the original record. Note that when several run commits  are  specified,  this
              applies  to every one. Care should also be taken when using --onto because checking
              out a new HEAD can easily fail when the working tree has modifications.

       -J NJOBS, --jobs NJOBS
              how many parallel jobs (where possible) to use. "auto" corresponds  to  the  number
              defined  by  'datalad.runtime.max-annex-jobs'  configuration item NOTE: This option
              can only parallelize input retrieval (get) and  output  recording  (save).  DataLad
              does  NOT  parallelize your scripts for you. Constraints: value must be convertible
              to type 'int' or value must be NONE or value must be one of ('auto',)

       --version
              show the module and its version which provides the command
