-## setup
-
-as the content repository is tracked with git, we're using git-annex to handle binary files. to setup this integration:
-
-- install `git annex` (see <https://git-annex.branchable.com/install/>)
-  - if on Debian based systems, check the [NeuroDebian](http://neuro.debian.net) channel for a more up-to-date version of git-annex
-- add a `.gitattributes` file with the following:
-
-```
-*          annex.largefiles=nothing
-*.png      filter=annex annex.largefiles=anything
-*.jpg      filter=annex annex.largefiles=anything
-*.pdf      filter=annex annex.largefiles=anything
-*.epub     filter=annex annex.largefiles=anything
-```
-
-add more file type as needed. after this, we don't need to track binary files with `git annex add` but we can simply use `git add`.
-
-- initialize the repo: `git init`, `git annex init`
-- then work with files with git (`git add`, `git mv`, `git rm`, etc)
-
-### git annex useful commands
-
-- general sync: `git annex sync --content`; this syncs both from your computer to the remote server and vice-versa (eg it does a pull and then a push)
-- list files: `git annex find`
-- get copy of file: `git annex get <filepath>` (or without filepath to get all listed files)
-- remove file: `git annex drop --force <filepath>` (or without `<filepath>` to remove all listed files)
-  - we need to use `--force` because by default git-annex tries to keep at least 1 more copy of the file in another repo, before deleting the file; in eg, it acts as an archive-focused system. since we might not care about that, passing `--force` bypasses the normal mechanism
-  - NB: using `git rm <filepath>` will not remove the file from the repo, only the symlink git-annex created for it; we can check this by doing `ls -l ./git/annex/objects/` and count how many items are in there
