NAME
git-annex drop - indicate content of files not currently wanted
SYNOPSIS
git annex drop [path ...]
DESCRIPTION
Drops the content of annexed files from this repository, when possible.
git-annex will refuse to drop content if it cannot verify it is safe to do so.
OPTIONS
--from=remote
Rather than dropping the content of files in the local repository, this option can specifiy a remote from which the files' contents should be removed.
--auto
Rather than trying to drop all specified files, drop only files that are not preferred content of the repository. See git-annex-preferred-content(1)
--force
Use this option with care! It bypasses safety checks, and forces git-annex to delete the content of the specified files, even from the last repository that is storing their content. Data loss can result from using this option.
file matching options
The git-annex-matching-options(1) can be used to specify files to drop.
