# NAME git-annex dead - hide a lost repository or key # SYNOPSIS git annex dead `[repository ...] [--key somekey]` # 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 makes the key be skipped when operating on all keys with eg `--all`. (To undo, add the key's content back to the repository, by using eg, `git-annex reinject`.) # OPTIONS * `--key=somekey` Use to specify a key that is dead. * Also the [[git-annex-common-options]](1) can be used. # SEE ALSO [[git-annex]](1) [[git-annex-trust]](1) [[git-annex-semitrust]](1) [[git-annex-untrust]](1) [[git-annex-renameremote]](1) [[git-annex-expire]](1) [[git-annex-fsck]](1) [[git-annex-reinject]](1) # AUTHOR Joey Hess Warning: Automatically converted into a man page by mdwn2man.
