git annex assistant

DESCRIPTION

Watches for changes to files in the current directory and its subdirectories, and automatically syncs them to other remotes.

Automatically starts the assistant running in each repository listed in the file ˜/.config/git-annex/autostart

This is typically started at boot, or when you log in.

--startdelay=N

When --autostart is used, defaults to --startdelay=5.

--foreground

Avoid forking to the background.

--stop

Stop a running daemon in the current repository.

--autostop

The complement to --autostart; stops all running daemons in the repositories listed in the autostart file.

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