+After inadvertently deleting my main repository on my local machine, I had to rebuild. This has worked ok, as far as I can tell at the moment. However, when listing the repository details, I get the listing below.
+
+My problem is that **S5** has three aliases: `S5 [S51]`, which I cannot rename to `S5` for some reason, and two other repos residing in `jg@jg-OptiPlex-9020-AIO:/media/jg/S5/annex`. When I try to query there details, I get the information at the bottom. I am a bit anxious, as I am unsure if I am dealing with prior instances that have been somehow overridden but are still being tracked.
+
+Any help in understanding the situation is appreciated. Ideally, I would like to remove the spurious repository references, provided they are not required.
