This allows for some crude replication; it doesn't take into account which repositories should be filled up more (beyond honoring annex.diskreserve), nor does it try to optimally use bandwidth (beyond honoring configured annex-cost). You have to run it in every repository that you want to participate in the replication, too. But it's probably a Good Enough solution. See [[walkthrough/automatically_managing_content]]. """]]
