I would like to be able to name a few remotes that must retain all annexed
files. git-annex fsck
should warn me if any files are missing from those
remotes, even if annex.numcopies
has been satisfied by other remotes.
I imagine this could also be useful for bup remotes, but I haven't actually looked at those yet.
Based on existing output, this is what a warning message could look like:
fsck FILE
3 of 3 trustworthy copies of FILE exist.
FILE is, however, still missing from these required remotes:
UUID -- Backup Drive 1
UUID -- Backup Drive 2
Back it up with git-annex copy.
Warning
What do you think?
