Hi all,

I couldn’t figure out how to add a comment to my patch, so here is a little more
commentary.

Right now, if you use git to sync your Org files and git annex to manage your
(large) attachments, and are on a different computer from the one you were using
when you added the attachment, you will typically have a dangling symlink to
your attachment until you call =get annex get PATH=. (This is how git annex is
intended to work.)

This patch automatically calls =git annex get PATH= when you open the attachment
from Org, if the file has not been fetched already.

(It would be nice to have Org do the same thing when exporting to HTML as well,
if the git annex file is an image that is being exported as an embedded image
link, but I can’t figure out how to do that.)

I have signed copyright assignment papers with the FSF.

best, Erik
