.TH git-annex-contentlocation 1
.SH NAME
git-annex-contentlocation \- looks up content for a key
.PP
.SH SYNOPSIS
git annex contentlocation \fB[key ...]\fP
.PP
.SH DESCRIPTION
This plumbing\-level command looks up filename used to store the content 
of a key. The filename is output to stdout. If the key's content is not
present in the local repository, nothing is output, and it exits nonzero.
.PP
Note that in direct mode, the file will typically be in the git work
tree, and while its content should correspond to the key, the file
could become modified at any time after git-annex checks it.
.PP
.SH OPTIONS
.IP "\fB\-\-batch\fP"
.IP
Enable batch mode, in which a line containing the key is read from
stdin, the filename to its content is output to stdout (with a trailing
newline), and repeat.
.IP
Note that if a key's content is not present, an empty line is output to
stdout instead.
