+Following up on [[todo/clarify_that_v7_applies_to_all_clones]], the
+next step was to fetch all content from the central, still v5
+repository, which worked fine.
+
+But weirdly, some files showed up as modified:
+
+    $ git annex get
+    [...]
+    $ git status
+    ## master...origin/master
+     M calendrier/photos/DSCF0879.jpg
+     M calendrier/photos/DSCF1191.jpg
+
+Strangely, git doesn't see which changes are present here:
+
+    $ git diff
+    [... takes some time, but no output ...]
+    $ 
+
+Workaround: `git checkout .` - but I don't understand why that is happening in the first place... Is that a bug? -- [[anarcat]]
