Is it possible in DVC to pull and push only subfiles within a .dvc file ?

[aveek-brahmachari]

Suppose, I have a folder XYZ that has subfolders and data ABC and DEF. Is there anyway to push and pull only ABC using XYZ.dvc ?

Hi @aveek-brahmachari . Yes, you can dvc push/pull XYZ/ABC

Do you mean in the place where I executed dvc pull? No.

@nvinayvarma189 Could you check dvc list . data/subfolder, does it show anything?

[nvinayvarma189]

I get the following when I execute dvc list . data/subfolder

ERROR: unexpected error - ('/', 'root', 'vinay', 'dummy', 'dvc_test', 'data', 'subfolder')

output of pwd is

/root/vinay/dummy/dvc_test

I'm using Version: 2.8.1 btw.

@nvinayvarma189 How about dvc list . data? Or dvc list .(run this in the repo root, btw). If you don't see data at all in its output - most likely you didn't git commit/push corresponding meta files in the original machine.

I'd like to apologize for an overlook mistake from my end, dvc pull data/subfolder workers perfectly. I hope dvc push data/subfolder also works nicely :)

Thank you very much 🙏
