Debian Science Data Management packages
This metapackage will install packages to assist with data management
tasks, such as obtaining data from remote resources, keeping data
under version control, etc.
Description
For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:
If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Science
to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to
send a description of that project to the Debian Science mailing list

DataLad is a data management and distribution platform providing
access to a wide range of data resources already available online.
Using git-annex as its backend for data logistics it provides following
facilities built-in or available through additional extensions
-
command line and Python interfaces for manipulation of collections of
datasets (install, uninstall, update, publish, save, etc.) and
separate files/directories (add, get)
-
extract, aggregate, and search through various sources of metadata
(xmp, EXIF, etc; install datalad-neuroimaging for DICOM, BIDS, NIfTI
support)
- crawl web sites to automatically prepare and update git-annex
repositories with content from online websites, S3, etc (install
datalad-crawler)

git-annex allows managing files with git, without checking the file
contents into git. While that may seem paradoxical, it is useful when
dealing with files larger than git can currently easily handle, whether due
to limitations in memory, time, or disk space.
It can store large files in many places, from local hard drives, to a
large number of cloud storage services, including S3, WebDAV,
and rsync, with a dozen cloud storage providers usable via plugins.
Files can be stored encrypted with gpg, so that the cloud storage
provider cannot see your data. git-annex keeps track of where each file
is stored, so it knows how many copies are available, and has many
facilities to ensure your data is preserved.
git-annex can also be used to keep a folder in sync between computers,
noticing when files are changed, and automatically committing them
to git and transferring them to other computers. The git-annex webapp
makes it easy to set up and use git-annex this way.
