NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

       Displays  statistics  and  other  information  for  the  specified  item,  which  can be a
       directory, or a file, or a treeish,  or  a  remote,  or  the  description  or  uuid  of  a
       repository.

       When  no  item  is specified, displays statistics and information for the local repository
       and all annexed content.

OPTIONS

       --fast

              Only show the data that can be gathered quickly.

       --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.

       --bytes
              Show file sizes in bytes, disabling the default nicer units.

       --batch
              Enable batch mode, in which a line containing an  item  is  read  from  stdin,  the
              information about it is output to stdout, and repeat.

       -z     Makes the --batch input be delimited by nulls instead of the usual newlines.

       --autoenable
              Display a list of special remotes that have been configured to autoenable.

       matching options
              The  git-annex-matching-options(1)  can  be  used  to select what to include in the
              statistics.

       Also the git-annex-common-options(1) can be used.

EXAMPLES

       Suppose you want to run "git annex get .", but would first like to see how much disk space
       that will use.  Then run:

        git annex info --fast . --not --in here
