* lisp/org-attach.el Changed the way attachments deal with property-inheritance. It now adheres to the =org-use-property-inheritance= setting by default but it can be customized if needed (I recommend to enable it!). The property ATTACH_DIR is deprecated in favour of the shorter and simpler property DIR. Added an explicit option to =org-attach= for unsetting attachment-directories (i.e. remove DIR property and deal with the attachments by interaction). Added attachment link type with the prefix "attachment:". Added customizations: - org-attach-dir-relative - org-attach-preferred-new-method - org-attach-use-inheritance - org-attach-id-to-path-function Hooks added: - org-attach-after-change-hook - org-attach-open-hook A new linktype "attachment" is added in order to reduce link-duplication when wanting to link to files in attached folders of nodes. This works for both ID and DIR properties. The goal is to make the functionality for attachment links mirror the functionality for file links. * lisp/org-attach-git.el New file, existing functionality. Code here has been factored out from org-attach.el and if GIT-functionality is to be used this module needs to be required sepatately. It extends org-attach by use of its hooks. Activating git functionality in org-attach is done by loading org-attach-git from now on, instead of customizing a variable. Naming of both functions and tests has been modified to match the move of functionality into its own module. * lisp/org.el Inline images are shown also using attachment-links, exactly the same as it works for file-links today. Make org-open-at-point respect ARG when opening attachment-dir. * lisp/org-compat.el org-attach-directory has been deprecated in favour for org-attach-id-dir. The new name matches its purpose better. * lisp/ox-html.el Export attachment links to images as inline images, in the same way as file links work today. * etc/ORG-NEWS Mention the changes in this patch. * doc/org-manual.org The chapter "Refile, Copy, Archive" has been split into two separate chapters. - "Refile, Copy and Archiving" for information related to moving existing data around. - "Capture, Attachments, RSS Feeds and Protocols" for information related to working with external data. The attachment-part has been rewritten and extended to match the changes in this patch. The new attachment link type is mentioned both inside the attachments chapter and in the chapter dealing with links. Documentation related to external links has been improved. * testing/lisp/test-org-attach-annex.el Require org-attach-git instead of org-attach, since this file tests the GIT-functionality. * testing/lisp/test-org-attach.el Add tests for org-attach. * testing/org-test.el Define a symbol for a file to test attachments with. * testing/examples/* A bunch of new example files and folders are created and are used in testing of org-attach to verify its functionality.

+
+*** Attachment options
+There are a couple of options for attachments that are worth
+mentioning.
+
+- ~org-attach-id-dir~ ::
+ #+vindex: org-attach-id-dir
+ The directory where attachments are stored when =ID= is used as
+ method.
+
+- ~org-attach-dir-relative~ ::
+ #+vindex: org-attach-dir-relative
+ When setting the =DIR= property on a node using {{{kbd(C-c C-a s)}}}
+ (~org-attach-set-directory~), absolute links are entered by default.
+ This option changes that to relative links.
+
+- ~org-attach-use-inheritance~ ::
+ #+vindex: org-attach-use-inheritance
+ By default folders attached to an outline node are inherited from
+ parents according to ~org-use-property-inheritance~. If one instead
+ want to set inheritance specifically for org-attach that can be done
+ using ~org-attach-use-inheritance~. Inheriting documents through
+ the node hierarchy makes a lot of sense in most cases. Especially
+ since the introduction of [[* Attachment links]]. The following example
+ shows one use case for attachment inheritance:
- #+kindex: C-c C-a i
- #+cindex: @samp{ATTACH_DIR_INHERIT}, property
- Set the =ATTACH_DIR_INHERIT= property, so that children use the
- same directory for attachments as the parent does.
+ #+begin_example
+ ,* Chapter A ...
+ :PROPERTIES:
+ :DIR: Chapter A/
+ :END:
+ ,** Introduction
+ Some text
+ #+NAME: Image 1
+ [[Attachment:image 1.jpg]]
+ #+end_example
+
+ Without inheritance one would not be able to resolve the link to
+ image =1.jpg=, since the link is inside a sub-heading to =Chapter
+ A=.
+
+ Inheritance works the same way for both =ID= and =DIR= property. If
+ both properties are defined on the same headline then =DIR= takes
+ precedance. This is also true if inheritance is enabled. If =DIR=
+ is inherited from a parent node in the outline, that property still
+ takes precedence over an =ID= property defined on the node itself.
+
+- ~org-attach-method~ ::
+ #+vindex: org-attach-method
+ When attaching files using the dispatcher {{{kbd(C-c C-a)}}} it
+ defaults to copying files. The behaviour can be changed by
+ customizing ~org-attach-method~. Options are Copy, Move/Rename,
+ Hard link or Symbolic link.
+
+- ~org-attach-preferred-new-method~ ::
+ #+vindex: org-attach-preferred-new-method
+ This customization lets you choose the default way to attach to
+ nodes without existing =ID= and =DIR= property. It defaults to ~id~
+ but can also be set to ~dir~, ~ask~ or ~nil~.
+
+- ~org-attach-archive-delete~ ::
+ #+vindex: org-attach-archive-delete
+ Configure this to determine if attachments should be deleted or not
+ when a subtree that has attachments is archived.
+
+- ~org-attach-auto-tag~ ::
+ #+vindex: org-attach-auto-tag
+ When attaching files to a heading it will be assigned a tag
+ according to what is set here.
+
+- ~org-attach-id-to-path-function~ ::
+ #+vindex: org-attach-id-to-path-function
+ When =ID= is used for attachments, the ID is parsed into a part of a
+ directory-path. See ~org-attach-id-folder-format~ for the default
+ function. Define a new one and add it to
+ ~org-attach-id-to-path-function~ if you want the folder structure
+ any other way. Note that modifying this makes org-attach dependent
+ on your function also for opening attachments, not only setting
+ them!
+
+- ~org-attach-expert~ ::
+ #+vindex: org-attach-expert
+ Do not show the splash buffer with the attach dispatcher when
+ ~org-attach-expert~ is set to non-~nil~.
+
+See customization group =Org Attach= if you want to change the
+default settings.
+
+*** Attachment links
+Attached files and folders can be referenced using attachment links.
+This makes it easy to refer to the material added to an outline node.
+Especially if it was attached using the unique ID of the entry!
+
+#+begin_example
+,* TODO Some task
+ :PROPERTIES:
+ :ID: 95d50008-c12e-479f-a4f2-cc0238205319

+See [[*External Links]] for more information about these links.
+
+*** Automatic version-control with Git
+If the directory attached to an outline node is a Git repository, Org
+can be configured to automatically commit changes to that repository
+when it sees them.
+
+To make Org mode take care of versioning of attachments for you, add
+the following to your Emacs config:

- Refile the entry or region at point. This command offers possible
- locations for refiling the entry and lets you select one with
- completion. The item (or all items in the region) is filed below
- the target heading as a subitem. Depending on
- ~org-reverse-note-order~, it is either the first or last subitem.
-
- By default, all level 1 headlines in the current buffer are
- considered to be targets, but you can have more complex definitions
- across a number of files. See the variable ~org-refile-targets~ for
- details. If you would like to select a location via

+*** Org-Attach Git commit
+[[*Org-Attach has been refactored and extended][Refactoring of Org-Attach]] affected the Git commit functionality. Not
+much, but the following changes are required if you still need to
+auto-commit attachments to git:
+
+- Customization of ~org-attach-annex-auto-get~ needs to be renamed to
+ ~org-attach-git-annex-auto-get~.
+
+- Customization of ~org-attach-commit~ is no longer needed. Instead
+ one need to require the =org-attach-git= module in the startup.
+
** New features
+*** Org-Attach has been refactored and extended
+Org attach has been refactored and the functionality extended. It
+should now be easier to understand how it works. A few improvements
+and extra options have been added as well.
+
+From the initial comment in org-attach source-code:
+
+- Attachments are managed either by using a custom property DIR or by
+ using property ID from org-id. When DIR is defined, a location in
+ the filesystem is directly attached to the outline node. When
+ org-id is used, attachments are stored in a folder named after the
+ ID, in a location defined by ~org-attach-id-dir~. DIR has
+ precedence over ID when both parameters are defined for the current
+ outline node (also when inherited parameters are taken into
+ account).
+
+From now on inheritance requires no extra property and will adhere to
+~org-attach-use-inheritance~ by default. Inheritance can be
+customized to always be activated or never be activated in
+~org-attach-use-inheritance~.
+
+The ATTACH_DIR property is deprecated in favour of the shorter
+property DIR. Links to folders inside the DIR property can now be
+declared as relative links. This is not enabled by default, but can
+be set in ~org-attach-dir-relative~.
+
+When adding new attachment to the outline node the preferred way of
+doing so can be customized. Take a look at
+~org-attach-preferred-new-method~. It defaults to using ID since that
+was the behaviour before this change.
+
+If both DIR and ID properties are set on the same node, DIR has
+precedence and will be used.
+
+One can now also choose to build attachment-directory-paths in a
+customized way. This is an advanced topic, but in some case it makes
+sense to parse an ID in a different way than the default one. Create
+your own function and use it is ~org-attach-id-to-path-function~ if
+you want to customize the ID-based folder structure.
+
+If you've used ATTACH_DIR properties to manage attachments, use the
+following code to rename that property to DIR which supports the same
+functionality. ATTACH_DIR_INHERIT is no longer supported and is
+removed.
+
+#+begin_src emacs-lisp
+ (defun org-update-attach-properties ()
+ "Change properties for Org-Attach."
+ (interactive)
+ (org-with-point-at 1
+ (while (outline-next-heading)
+ (let ((DIR (org--property-local-values "ATTACH_DIR" nil)))
+ (when DIR
+ (org-set-property "DIR" (car DIR))
+ (org-delete-property "ATTACH_DIR"))))
+ (org-delete-property-globally "ATTACH_DIR_INHERIT")))
+#+end_src
+
+For those who hate breaking changes, even though the changes are made
+to clean things up; fear not. ATTACH_DIR will still continue to work.
+It's just not documented any longer. When you get the chance, run the
+code above to clean things up anyways!
+
+**** New hooks
+Two hooks are added to org-attach:
+- org-attach-after-change-hook
+- org-attach-open-hook
+
+They are added mostly for internal restructuring purposes, but can
+ofc. be used for other things as well.
+
+*** New link-type: Attachment
+Attachment-links are now first-class citizens. They mimick file-links
+in everything they do but use the existing attachment-folder as a base
+when expanding the links. Both =DIR= and =ID= properties are used to
+try to resolve the links, in exactly the same way as Org-Attach uses
+those properties.

;; See the Org manual for information on how to use it.
;;
-;; Attachments are managed in a special directory called "data", which
-;; lives in the same directory as the org file itself. If this data
-;; directory is initialized as a Git repository, then org-attach will
-;; automatically commit changes when it sees them.
-;;
-;; Attachment directories are identified using a UUID generated for the
-;; task which has the attachments. These are added as property to the
-;; task when necessary, and should not be deleted or changed by the
-;; user, ever. UUIDs are generated by a mechanism defined in the variable
-;; `org-id-method'.
+;; Attachments are managed either by using a custom property DIR or by
+;; using property ID from org-id. When DIR is defined, a location in
+;; the filesystem is directly attached to the outline node. When
+;; org-id is used, attachments are stored in a folder named after the
+;; ID, in a location defined by `org-attach-id-dir'. DIR has
+;; precedence over ID when both parameters are defined for the current
+;; outline node (also when inherited parameters are taken into
+;; account).
