NAME

       git-annex-contentlocation - looks up content for a key

SYNOPSIS

       git annex contentlocation [key ...]

DESCRIPTION

       This  plumbing-level command looks up filename used to store the content of a key. The filename is output
       to stdout. If the key's content is not present in the local repository, nothing is output, and  it  exits
       nonzero.

       Note  that  in direct mode, the file will typically be in the git work tree, and while its content should
       correspond to the key, the file could become modified at any time after git-annex checks it.

OPTIONS

       --batch

              Enable batch mode, in which a line containing the key is read from  stdin,  the  filename  to  its
              content is output to stdout (with a trailing newline), and repeat.

              Note that if a key's content is not present, an empty line is output to stdout instead.
