NAME

       git-annex-dead - hide a lost repository or key

SYNOPSIS

       git annex dead [repository ...] [--key key]

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
       prevents commands like git annex fsck --all from complaining about it; --all will not operate on the  key
       anymore.  (To undo, add the key's content back to the repository, by using eg, git-annex reinject.)
