what happens to files in the annex when you delete them? #372
-
|
I made a commit with a bunch of audio files that I think are duplicates of other audio files: C30/C30_20180717/C30_20180717_converted/REC001.WAV I guess I could leave them in with no reference to them from If/when I decide to delete the duplicate audio files, will I be able to go back to a different commit and retrieve them? Probably not, right? |

you cannot delete them unwittingly, see http://handbook.datalad.org/en/0.12/basics/101-136-filesystem.html#removing-annexed-content-entirely |

I would have to guess that you won't be able to retrieve them. Going back
to the commit would retrieve symbolic links but when trying to get them in
the annex, they should not be stored there anymore.
I should run a test of this at some point just to be sure.

other audio files:
C30/C30_20180717/C30_20180717_converted/REC001.WAV
versus
C30/C30_20180717/C30_20180717/REC001.WAV
I guess I could leave them in with no reference to them from
metadata/recordings.csv, but I may find this confusing in the future. For
now, I'm adding a column to metadata/recordings.csv called "repeated"
that is 1 if I think these are duplicates.
If/when I decide to delete the duplicate audio files, will I be able to go
back to a different commit and retrieve them? Probably not, right?

Indeed, But you can delete them with datalad drop (that is the command you
would use for the original question)
