.SH NAME
git-annex-clean \- git filter driver for git-annex
.PP
.SH SYNOPSIS
git annex clean
.PP
.SH DESCRIPTION
When git-annex is used as a git filter driver, this command is run
by git commands such as \fBgit add\fP. It generates a file that
is added to the git repository and points to the git-annex object
containing the content of a large file.
.PP
To configure git to use git-annex as a git filter driver, place the
following in the .gitattributes file:
.PP
 * filter=annex
\&.* !filter
.PP
The annex.largefiles config is consulted to decide if a given file should
be added to git as\-is, or if its content are large enough to need to use
git-annex.
