title: datalad-remake
description: This extension equips DataLad with the functionality to (re)compute file
content on demand, based on a specified set of instructions. In particular, it features
a datalad make command for capturing instructions on how to compute a given file,
allowing the file content to be safely removed. It also implements a git-annex special
remote, which enables the (re)computation of the file content based on the captured
instructions. This is particularly useful when the file content can be produced
deterministically. If storing the file content is more expensive than (re)producing
it, this functionality can lead to more effective resource utilization. Thus, this
extension may be of interest to a wide, interdisciplinary audience, including researchers,
data curators, and infrastructure administrators.
