Early releases dealt with repository layout choices for object placement; version 0.1 used the older frankencase layout, version 0.2 added multiple layout support, and version 0.4 raised compatibility with rclone 1.33 after a data-loss warning for older versions. Maintenance later moved from Daniel Dent's personal namespace to a contributor organization while retaining the same narrow purpose: expose rclone destinations through git-annex's external special remote protocol. ### Adoptionsgeschichte Its adoption is niche but useful inside the git-annex ecosystem. The tool packages a single integration point for providers such as Google Drive, S3-compatible storage, Dropbox, OneDrive, Backblaze B2, Swift, and other rclone targets, so package managers can ship one git-annex add-on instead of many provider-specific remotes. ### Wie es verwendet wird Practitioners configure an rclone remote, create or enable a git-annex repository, then run git annex initremote with type=external, externaltype=rclone, a target name, a prefix, encryption settings, chunk size, and an rclone layout. Password-protected rclone configs are passed through environment variables or a password command, while credentials remain in the rclone configuration rather than in git-annex. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren For package maintainers, git-annex-remote-rclone is a bridge package: it is tiny, depends on behavior from both git-annex and rclone, and needs compatibility testing whenever rclone output or git-annex special-remote behavior changes. ### Zeitleiste - 2016: Repository created and v0.1 published with the original frankencase layout. - 2016: v0.2 added multiple repository layout support. - 2016: v0.4 added support for rclone 1.33 after a data-loss warning for earlier releases. - 2023: v0.8 reduced command noise while keeping the same integration role. ### Related projects - git-annex provides the special remote protocol, rclone provides the cloud-storage transports, and git-annex's built-in rclone special remote documents the same family of use cases. ### Quellen - - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise infrastructure mutation or orchestration signal. - **Geiger-Risiko:** orange / mittel - infrastructure mutation or orchestration signal ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
