I want to double-check something: if I've annexed and committed files, I believe they are safely stored in git-annex even if I unlock them (as long as I don't use `--thin`). If I annex copies of the the same file, annex will only store it once, and use a symlink for the two original files. But if I unlock them, I can edit them independently.

Basically, unlock gives me an editable copy of the file - but I always have the original version, and can revert or check it out if I need to. Is that correct?
