rclone/cmd/gitannex/gitannex.go

// Package gitannex provides the "gitannex" command, which enables [git-annex]
// to communicate with rclone by implementing the [external special remote
// protocol]. The protocol is line delimited and spoken over stdin and stdout.
//
// # Milestones
//
// (Tracked in [issue #7625].)
//
//  1. ✅ Minimal support for the [external special remote protocol]. Tested on
//     "local" and "drive" backends.
//  2. Add support for the ASYNC protocol extension. This may improve performance.
//  3. Support the [simple export interface]. This will enable `git-annex
//     export` functionality.
//  4. Once the draft is finalized, support import/export interface.
