I have hybrid encryption enabled on the remote, using my gpg key. So I thought, what if I were to download the encrypted file, and attempt to decrypt it locally. Would that work? +It didn't work. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? I simply download the file through rclone, or the dropbox interface, and run `gpg --decrypt filename....` pinentry does ask for my password, but I don't think it's asking for the password to my gpg key. Maybe the file is encrypted twice? Once with my key, and again using a generic password that git-annex knows? I am not sure. +Any help would be appreciated! +"""]]
