Running this command throws an error if a notebook does not have the jupytext
metadata key set:
jovyan@87275628c719:~/notebooks$ jupytext --update-metadata '{"jupytext": null}' Part*/*.ipynb
[jupytext] Reading Part 01 Notebooks/01.1 Getting started with IPython and Jupyter Notebooks - Bootcamp.ipynb in format ipynb

A workaround is to just set the sync as follows:
jupytext --set-formats ipynb Part*/*.ipynb
It would then also be possible to legitimately set the value null
.
(Are there any side of settings the value to ipynb
compare to null
?
We should add this to either the CLI documentation, or to the FAQ - removing the
jupytext
information from notebooks (hence the pairing) can be done withThe context on this question was the following: Jupytext is installed system wise, so the user cannot uninstall it, but he'd rather stop using it for a nbdev project (see also #542 ).
