Word summary: After migrating from SHA256 to SHA256E I still have a ton of SHA256 files around that aren't being found by unused.

Command outputs (see, specifically, the output of status showing number of SHA256 and SHA256E files):


    greg@eeepc:/mnt/blackbox/Media/Pictures/Photos$ less .gitattributes
    * annex.backend=SHA256E

    greg@eeepc:/mnt/blackbox/Media/Pictures/Photos$ git-annex migrate .
    (Recording state in git...)

    greg@eeepc:/mnt/blackbox/Media/Pictures/Photos$ git-annex unused
    unused . (checking for unused data...) (checking master...) (checking rose/master...) (checking x200s/master...)
      Some partially transferred data exists in temporary files:
        NUMBER  KEY
        1       SHA256E-s15766010--8132a02a8b245eb9842e89c5e696df4e9c82d676f8dec3c6bb96892c19f99d51.jpg

      To remove unwanted data: git-annex dropunused NUMBER

    ok

As Joey predicted, this took care of itself over time. Marking as [[bugs/done]].
