NAME

       git-annex-dead - hide a lost repository or key

SYNOPSIS

       git annex dead [repository ...] [--key key]

DESCRIPTION

       This command exists to deal with situations where data has been lost, and you know it has,
       and you want to stop being reminded of that fact.

       When a repository is specified, indicates that the repository has been irretrievably lost,
       so it will not be listed in eg, git annex info.  Repositories can be specified using their
       remote name, their description, or their UUID. (To undo, use git-annex semitrust.)

       When a key is specified, indicates that the content of that  key  has  been  irretrievably
       lost.  This  prevents  commands like git annex fsck --all from complaining about it; --all
       will not operate on the key anymore.   (To  undo,  add  the  key's  content  back  to  the
       repository, by using eg, git-annex reinject.)
