NAME

       git-annex-unannex - undo accidental add command

SYNOPSIS

       git annex unannex [path ...]

DESCRIPTION

       Use this to undo an accidental git annex add command. It puts the file back how it was before the add.

       Note  that  for  safety, the content of the file remains in the annex, until you use git annex unused and
       git annex dropunused.

       This is not the command you should use if you intentionally added a file some time ago,  and  don't  want
       its  contents  any  more. In that case you should use git annex drop instead, and you can also git rm the
       file.

OPTIONS

       --fast

              Normally this does a slow copy of the file. In --fast mode, it instead makes a hard link from  the
              file to the content in the annex.  But use --fast mode with caution, because editing the file will
              change the content in the annex.

       --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.

       file matching options
              The git-annex-matching-options(1) can be used to specify files to unannex.

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