> git-annex is supposed to restage the file in order to update git's index. In a few cases where the index file is locked by something else, it is unable to do so and displays a warning, so perhaps that's what happened here.
Hmm... I *think* I ran `git annex unlock` on `curie` here, so all files should be unlocked. I don't know what else could be locking the index file and didn't see a warning about it. I've seen a similar situation when upgrading other repositories in the past as well...
