NAME

       git-annex-dropunused - drop unused file content

SYNOPSIS

       git annex dropunused [number|range ...]

DESCRIPTION

       Drops the data corresponding to the numbers, as listed by the last git annex unused

       You can also specify ranges of numbers, such as "1-1000".  Or, specify "all" to drop all unused data.

OPTIONS

       --from=remote

              Rather  than  dropping  the  unused  files  from  the  local repository, drop them from the remote
              repository.

       --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.

       --jobs=N -JN
              Runs  multiple  drop  jobs  in parallel. This is particularly useful when git-annex has to contact
              remotes to check if it can drop content.  For example: -J4

              Setting this to "cpus" will run one job per CPU core.

       --json Enable JSON output. This is intended to be parsed by programs that use  git-annex.  Each  line  of
              output is a JSON object.

       --json-error-messages
              Messages that would normally be output to standard error are included in the JSON instead.

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