NAME

       git-annex-move - move content of files to/from another repository

SYNOPSIS

       git annex move [path ...] [--from=remote|--to=remote|--to=here]

DESCRIPTION

       Moves the content of files from or to another remote.

OPTIONS

       --from=remote

              Move the content of files from the specified remote to the local repository.

       --to=remote
              Move the content of files from the local repository to the specified remote.

       --to=here
              Move the content of files from all reachable remotes to the local repository.

       --jobs=N -JN
              Enables parallel transfers with up to the specified number of jobs running at once.
              For example: -J10

       --all  Rather than specifying a filename or path to move, this option can be used to  move
              all available versions of all files.

              This is the default behavior when running git-annex in a bare repository.

       --branch=ref
              Operate on files in the specified branch or treeish.

       --unused
              Operate on files found by last run of git-annex unused.

       --failed
              Operate on files that have recently failed to be transferred.

       --key=keyname
              Use this option to move a specified key.

       --fast When  moving content to a remote, avoid a round trip to check if the remote already
              has content. This can be faster, but might skip moving content  to  the  remote  in
              some cases.

       --force
              When  moving content from a remote, ignore location tracking information and always
              check if the remote has content. Can be useful if the location tracking information
              is out of date.

       file matching options
              The git-annex-matching-options(1) can be used to specify files to move.

       --batch
              Enables  batch mode, in which lines containing names of files to move are read from
              stdin.

              As each specified file is processed, the usual progress output is displayed.  If  a
              file's content does not need to be moved or it is not an annexed file, a blank line
              is output in response instead.

              Since the usual output while moving a file is verbose  and  not  machine-parseable,
              you may want to use --json in combination with --batch.

       --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-progress
              Include progress objects in JSON output.

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