+## version 5.20140411
+
+This release fixes a bug that could cause the assistant to use a *lot* of
+CPU, when monthly fscking was set up.
+
+Automatic upgrading was broken on OSX for previous versions. This has been
+fixed, but you'll need to manually upgrade to this version to get it going
+again. (Note that the fix is currently only available in the daily builds,
+not a released version.) Workaround: Remove the wget bundled inside the
+git-annex dmg.

 ## version 5.20140221
 
 The Windows port of the assistant and webapp is now considered to be beta

+As far as I observed, \"git annex merge\" only merges the \"git-annex\" branch. My wish is to have the conflict resolution from \"git annex sync\" in the \"master\" branch, but no automatic commit, such that the user can verify and possibly correct the merge. The proposed merge could go to the index. Consider the following scenario:
+
+1. We have repo A, B, and CENTRAL
+2. All three start with a root commit in \"master\" branch
+3. Then A commits a file \"test.txt\" with content \"a\" and syncs with CENTRAL
+4. Meanwhile, B commits \"test.txt\" with content \"b\"
+5. When B tries to sync with CENTRAL, the proposed conflict resolution having two files \"test.txt-variantXXXX\" and \"test.txt-variantYYYY\" should be staged in the index, but not committed yet.
+6. B can now commit a custom merge, e.g. with file content \"ab\".
+
+The point is that I really like the conflict resolution, but still want to force the user to check the result.

+@Matthias you need to install git-annex 4.20130709 or newer. Then `git-annex merge` will do what you want. As I said before. 
+
+As for committing the merge, you can always adjust the result after the fact and use `git commit --amend`.

+All I can tell from the strace is that it's looking at location logs, and it's looking at the same few keys, but not a single on in a tight loop.
+
+It would probably help a lot to run the assistant with --debug and get a debug log while this is going on. We need to pinpoint the part of the assistant that is affected, and there may be other activity too.

+(Also, the \"logging to a deleted file\" appears to have been a local misconfiguration; a cron job that repeatedly tried to start the assistant. Only one will start, but later ones will rotate the logs before noticing it's running and giving up.)

+Unfortunately all I have been able to tell for sure from this log is that it seems that the expensive transfer scan is not running, and this is unlikely to be a repository auto-repair.

+This is a getting the parent commit's tree.
+
+The git-cat-file churn could then be a union merge reading the contents of the git-annex branch to union-merge it into the `.git/annex/index` (in `mergeIndex`). This would reuse the main git cat-file process.
+
+That does not explain why it would need to read eg, SHA256E-s106800355--c70e31d511e7eec4881a15dfba521ea3d1fe14694968f81ae1819f1a2a93f9be.mp4.log 28 times.

+Is the repository using direct mode?
+
+Another theory is that:
+
+* test/hello appears
+* watcher sees new symlink, tries to make a commit with it
+* master branch already has that symlink
+* this is why the write-tree is not followed by a commit-tree. The commit would have been empty. 
+
+If this is the case, then 84068090af4bcd3d24f16d865ac07b0478f20ada will be a ref on the master branch.
+
+And all of the above is normal operation. But it does suggest, that if this repo is in direct mode, it might be running a direct mode work tree update around then.

+When using git annex as part of an automated backup system, it's sometimes important that we archive all files, including dotfiles.
+
+AFAICT there's no way to tell git annex add to add all dotfiles in a given directory; the only way to do it is to list every dotfile individually.  (git annex add --force doesn't seem to do it.)
+
+This can be worked around with find and xargs, but this is more work than it should be, I think.
+
+It might also be nice if git annex add displayed a warning when adding a directory with dotfiles; something like "Warning, N files ignored; pass --whatever to add them."

+### Please describe the problem.
+Just a small patch to Tahoe.hs which fixes "initremote repo
+type=thaoe" when using the latest tahoe-lafs release available for
+download.
+
+I'm trying to add an attachment here but the UI says "prohibited by 
+allowed_attachments (user is not an admin)" so please have a look also 
+here: <https://github.com/joeyh/git-annex/pull/21>
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+1. Install latest tahoe-lafs
+2. run "TAHOE_FURL=... git annex initremote repo type=tahoe"
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+OS: Debian Sid updated to latest packages
+git-annex: version 5.20140306 
+
+> Thanks, I've fixed this. [[done]] --[[Joey]]
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
+
+I would like to add few things if i'm able (it's my first time for
+haskell, and I'm a bit lost as now):
+
+1. add an optional parameter or envvar for a root dir cap and switch
+from storing anonymous files to saving a tree of dirs and files
+(much like the webdav back-end) so that i can later renew the
+leases on the files to prevent tahoe's garbage collection process
+expiration (for details see
+<https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/docs/garbage-collection.rst#client-side-renewal>)
+
+The poor man way to that without touching git-annex is to in some
+way collect the caps of the files from annex metadatas and to link
+them to a directory, which where i can then run "tahoe deep-check
+--add-lease" on;
+
+> When I talked this over with Zooko before, he 
+> thought it was better for git-annex to not use tahoe's directories,
+> which is why it doesn't. See [[todo/tahoe_lfs_for_reals]].
+> 
+> This is the first I have heard about tahoe garbage collection. 
+> It sounds like it's an optional process.
+> 
+> It would certainly be possible to pull the caps for files out of
+> git-annex's remote state log.
+> --[[Joey]]
+
+2. add convergence as an optional parameter. As of now many of the
+files that i'm willing to manage with git-annex are already on my
+grid, mostly because i've used tahoe's backup command to upload
+them in the past. By using the same convergence value that i've
+already setup on my other tahoe client installation i would be able
+to save much time and space by avoiding duplicates.
+
+Do you have any good pointers to pieces code of git-annex that i can
+read and hack to try to implement this or any other suggestion?
+
+> It was not documented, but you can already pass
+> `shared-convergence-secret=xxx` to `initremote`.
+> I have documented it. --[[Joey]]

+I recently had my git-annex repository die and it needed to be repaired. Two of my repositories are external hard drives. When I tried to use git-annex repair, it would churn for some hours, then error because the external hard drives were not plugged in. When I brought the two hard drives home from the various places that they are (safely) stored, it all worked fine, but it would have been great if git-annex repair could somehow do what it could with what was connected and do the rest as and when the other drives are plugged in. This must only become more of a problem as git-annex is used for longer, as one may have a handful of USB keys storing a little on each.

+Repair does not require access to remotes, but it will certianly yield a better result to have one remote available. Otherwise, information that cannot be repaired will be missing from the repository. Repair will still successfully complete in this situation though.

+These races look beniegn, as far as I can see it doesn't cause any data to be lost, or indeed anything to happen that wouldn't have happened if addurl had been run without the assistant running.
+
+The first race probably has addurl and the assistant both trying to move the file object into the annex at the same time. One wins and moves it; the other loses and sulks.
+
+The second race has addurl trying to `git add` the file, while the assistant has already noticed the file appeared, `git add`ed it, and committed the add.
+
+The only way to really avoid these races would be to add a lot of lock checking. Or just make `git annex addurl` and presumably also `git annex add` and maybe several other commands refuse to run when the assistant is running.

+As per topic, `git annex forget --drop-dead --force` does not behave as expected. Instead of getting rid of dead repositories, it actually revives them.
+
+I messed up the initial setup of the S3 special remote and instead of risking manual intervention, I figured it would be cleanest to nuke the old special remotes, using a new one instead.
+And yes, I should have used a test repo :(
+
+As this is apu.debconf.org, you could get access to the repo if that helps.

+You still have git remotes configured with the uuid of the remote, so `git annex info` pulls that data in. Since --drop-dead removes all mention of the remote from the git-annex branch, including that its trust level is dead, the remaining info from the .git/config takes effect.
+
+--drop-dead could `git remote rm` but that won't help other clones of the repo that also have the dead remote. Instead, I think it may make sense for --drop-dead to avoid removing the uuid from trust.log, so it will still know this remote is dead.

+Please run git-annex vicfg, and paste all the \"schedule\" lines, from a repository that has the problem. That should allow me to reproduce and fix this bug.

+
+It seems git-annex tries to create the scripts without checking if the actually directory exists. One solution would be to just create it if it doesn't exist or to only write the scripts if it exists already. Patch for the latter below. Works for me but my haskell knowledge is still very limited.
+
+By the way, what is the preferred way to contribute patches for git-annex? I couldn't find any information about that on the website.

+I'm afraid I abandoned this patch. It worked, but was still fidgety for being able to ignore parts of the tree. I found another way to do what I wanted by loading an indirect repo into /data and taking advantage of a surprise side effect in how the /sdcard filesystem translated the symlinks from the ext4 filesystem.
+
+I can probably scare it up from my archives, but it hasn't been kept up to date. The good news is (as I recall) the patch was pretty small.

+Yes, --relaxed bypasses the code that uses curl to check the file size.
+
+Ok, I have figured out what's going on. 
+
+git annex addurl --file foo ftp://host # this succeeds
+
+run the command a second time, and it fails. Why? Because the file is already present in the annex, and you are running addurl in a different mode. In this mode, it is adding a *new* url to the file in the annex. (In this particular case, the new and old url are the same, but it's possible to see this bug in cases where they are not, too.)
+
+As a sanity check, when adding a new url to an existing file, git-annex wants to check that the new url has the same size as the file. Otherwise it surely has  different content. However, as I noted this ftp server is returning a weird 350 response when curl is used to try to get the size of the url. So that fails, and git-annex cannot add the new url to the file. Which would be pointless in this case anyway, since it's the same as the old url.
+
+So, I can fix two things. I can make it detect when the url it's adding to an existing file in the annex is already a known url of that file, and skip doing anything in this case since it would be a no-op anyway. Done that.
+
+And, I can improve the error message so the user is not confused about what they're asking git-annex to do, and why it's unable to. Fixed that.
+
+This leaves the question of why curl sees a 350 code from this ftp server. But since it doesn't cause problems when using addurl, with or without --file to download the file from it, I think it's best to punt on that one.

+
+It runs in one of two ways:
+
+1. Forked to background, using a named pipe for the control protocol.
+2. With --foreground, the control protocol goes over stdio.
+
+Either way, behavior is the same:
+
+* Get a list of remotes to act on by looking at .git/config
+* Automatically notices when a remote has changes to branches
+  matching remote.$name.fetch, and pulls them down to the appropriate
+  location.
+* When the control protocol informs it about a new ref that's available,
+  it offers the ref to any interested remotes.
+
+# control protocol
+
+This is an asynchronous protocol. Ie, either side can send any message
+at any time, and the other side does not send a reply.
+
+It is line based and intended to be low volume and not used for large data.
+
+TODO: Expand with commands for sending/receiving git-annex objects, and
+progress during transfer.

+Any public key data etc used for authenticion is part of the remote's
+configuration (or hidden away in a secure chmodded file, if neccesary).
+This design does not concern itself with authenticating the remote node,
+it just takes the auth token and uses it.
+
+For example, in telehash, each node has its own keypair, which is used

+ content="""
+I am not sure which page is the best for this comment, but this one seems somewhat relevant.
+
+Given that a future telehash implementation may download files from multiple peers, it might be a good idea to download files in chunks, possibly in parallel. In this case, it might be a good idea to use a rolling hash for chunking (like rsync et al). [There is a package for that on Hackage](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hash-0.2.0.1/docs/Data-Hash-Rolling.html).
+
+git-annex could store a list of chunk checksums in `.git/annex/objects/…/SHA….chunks` whenever the repository holds a copy of the file. The checksum list would be a small fraction of the file in size, but all the checksum lists for all the files in a repository might take up too much space to store in the `git-annex` branch.
+
+When getting an object, git-annex could first download the `.chunks` file from a remote/peer and then proceed to download missing chunks in a BitTorrent-like fashion.
+
+If git-annex has an idea about what locally present object might be an earlier version of the file, it could compare the checksum lists and only download the parts that have changed (à la rsync).

+I have a plan for this month. While waiting for telehash, I am going to
+build [[design/git-remote-daemon]], which is the infrastructure git-annex
+will need, to use telehash. Since it's generalized to support other protocols,
+I'll be able to start using it before telehash is ready.
+
+In fact, I plan to first make it work with ssh:// remotes, where
+it will talk with git-annex-shell on the remote server. This will let the
+assistant immediately know when the server has received a commit, and that
+will simplify using the assistant with a ssh server -- no more need for
+XMPP in this case! It should also work with git-remote-gcrypt encrypted
+repositories, so also covers the case of an untrusted ssh server where
+everything is end-to-end encrypted.
+
+Building the git-annex-shell part of this should be pretty easy, and
+building enough of the [[design/git-remote-daemon]] design to support it
+also not hard.

+OK, thank you Joey for your help, and I think you have made some really excellent software. I've spent a couple of days to configure gpg and understand how to use it (glad I did, it has been on my todo-list for a long time...)
+
+First to your question: When I started, I just used the git-annex assistant to \"set up a repository on a remote server using ssh\" as a \"transfer repository\". Now I'll use git-remote-gcrypt instead.
+
+Now I have 2 questions:
+
+---
+
+1) On this webpage: [[https://github.com/joeyh/git-remote-gcrypt]] these are the instructions for setting up a remote for two participants:
+
+    git remote add cryptremote gcrypt::rsync://example.com:repo
+    git config remote.cryptremote.gcrypt-participants \"KEY1 KEY2\"
+    git push cryptremote master
+
+**Question 1:** As I own both computers myself, will syncing between the 2 computers work if I only use 1 KEY (the same KEY on both computers)?
+
+---
+
+2) I am still struggling to understand git-annex assistant and the use of special remotes. Important reasons for using git-annex are backups and moving data to the cloud to free up disk space locally. If I've understood it correctly, git-annex assistant always encrypts data sent to special remotes. And it seems to me that this page [[http://git-annex.branchable.com/special_remotes/]] suggest that git-annex assistant makes it easy to transfer files between different computers that do not communicate directly. I must clearly have misunderstood something, as Joey's comment above seem to state that I can't use the assistant for setting up syncing between computers.
+
+**Question 2:** If I loose my computer, or it becomes corrupted, how can I get my files back if I don't set up special remotes as a gcrypt special remote? (And if I can't, what is the purpose of the special remotes made by the assistant?)

+
+Forgive me, Joey, I've been following your work on the assistant for almost as long as you've been working on it, and I use git a little bit, but I have yet to wrap my head around the complexities of git and how git-annex and the assistant...morph them.  I've read all the design docs you've written, but I still don't understand this.  From reading the OP it sounds like this is exactly what the encrypted rsync special remote is for: using a transfer repo to sync two devices that don't connect directly to each other.  Why would he need to use a gcrypt repo instead?
+
+Thanks for your patience.  I know you get asked these basic questions over and over again.

+@Adam, an encrypted special remote does not contain the git repository (the gcrypt special remote is an exception to this rule). So you need to use another method to sync the git repository between machines.
+
+@Stein Roald once you have a clone of the git repository, you have the information that git-annex needs in able to get files from encrypted special remotes.
+
+Question 1: While gcrypt supports multi-key setups, when you use the git-annex assistant to set up a gcrypt remote it only sets it up to use one key. It's left to you to arrange for this key to be on every computer that needs it. Or use command-line stuff to add additional keys later.
+
+Question 2: You can certianly use the assistant to set up syncing between computers, but the only setup that currently provides 100% end-to-end enctyption of the git repository is using gcrypt. (Special remotes are 100% end-to-end encrypted, but as I've stated several times, do not contain the git repository data.)
+Since you seemed to want 100% end to end encryption I suggested using gcrypt. There are simpler setups, like using XMPP, that encrypt everything but not end-to-end, so the XMPP server could snoop on it.
+
+If you loose your computer, you can get your files back from any other device where you've set up a clone of that repository. A backup drive, another computer , etc.

+Thanks again, Joey, for your time and for your kind answers.
+
+I have tried to set up git-annex with 2 laptops, each with their own gpg-key in order to use a remote server with gcrypt (and those laptops have shared the keys with each other). I regularly use git, but so far I haven't been able to get this setup to work. But before I bother the world with these problems, I would be interested in learning how to do the following:
+
+*Question 3*: How can I use the git-annex assistant to set up a gcrypt remote (with one key)? It doesn't show up as an option as far as I can see (git-annex version: 4.20130815).
+
+*Promise*: When I get git-annex to work with gcrypt, I'll make a summary on how I did it (and maybe which mistakes I made so others can avoid them).

+First of all, thanks for the amazing work! I've already tried Owncloud, SparkleShare, Unison, rsync and lsycnd. Finally I may have found the real deal.
+
+My main problem with git-annex right now is that it is not fast/reliable enough. The main issues being: broken links now and then (I've probably done something wrong) and the slow: "startup scans", "consistency checks", "attempting to fix here" and "syncing with server". (50 Giga, Work-Server-Home, setup via webapp assistant)
+
+Please, tell me if I'm wrong, but I have the impression that git-annex would get much more robust if it was 100% sure that nobody could mess with its file tree. One possibility would be to add the option (when creating a repo) to make a protected filesystem controlled by git-annex only via FUSE (not something like ShareBox). This could be a tiny filesystem (such as loggedfs) that does nothing but make sure that only git-annex can mount/change files. This would definitely add to speed (reducing checks) and stability.
+
+I'm I being too naive? Most likely there is something I'm overlooking, like the amount of work this would involve.

+This would make available git annex most interesting feature to assistant users.
+
+I'm not entirely sure it's a good idea but it avoids file manager scripts and should be discoverable and easy to use.
+
+I see two possibilities:
+
+1. A folder in the annex root that contains a mirror of the tree but with only the unavailable files. Unavaliable files would then not be displayed in the live tree. Perhaps the folder can be called `remote`? Files can then be dragged from this tree to the live tree to trigger transfer of files. Any error/info gets displayed in the assistant
+2. Flat droptargets in the annex root for `drop` and `get` commands.
+
+
+Number one above makes discovering available files a bit cumbersome as you have to navigate down a parallell tree. It does make the available/remote distinction clearer which may be good for assistant users.
+
+The mechanism could be extended to include a folder or droptarget for each remote.
+
+The creation of droptargets/action folders could be triggered by a big visible button in the assistant interface **Manage Files**

+A few likely reasons:
+
+* If a 4th client repository had popped up. 
+* If you have configured a high number of copies, it might only be able to be met by keeping files on the transfer repository.
+* Similarly, if a repository that used to have the files has been marked as dead or deleted, more copies might be needed to make up for that.
+* For completeness, if the transfer repository accidentially had its type changed to some other kind of repository, like a full backup.
+
+You can enable debugging (start with --debug or go into the webapp's preferences) and it might say a little more, but the debugging info is not very good.
+
+The best thing is probably to look at one single file, use `git annex whereis` on the file to see what repositories contain it, and then think about how that interacts with the [[preferred_content_expression_of_the_transfer_repository|preferred_content/standard_groups]].

+ date="2014-03-23T21:22:15Z"
+ content="""
+An important use case for me with automatic synchronization, is being able to change computers mid-way through a development session. I used to do this with dropbox for years: I'd work in a git checkout, then take another laptop to go work elsewhere, and just continue in the \"same\" synchronized git repo. Having to remember to commit and push a long list of repos before changing workstations is error-prone. Also, I prefer to commit when a discrete atom of work has been completed, and to push when a topic branch is good and ready to be merged (for example), not every time that I feel like changing workstations. :) Dropbox never dropped a stitch in all this time. As long as all laptops are in a 1) connected and 2) synced up state, switching is possible.
+
+The limitation of not being able to sync the .git directories in git checkouts means that this use case can't currently be supported by git-annex (assistant). Is a work-around possible, or is this something that can't ever be supported due to the limitations of git itself?

+I didn't. I removed the --json options from commands that didn't necessarily output valid json when used with it. There are numerous commands that support --json (find, whereis, info, status, metadata, examinekey), and I'm open to adding it to other commands -- but it's probably not feasible to make commands like `get` output json, since their output includes progress info printed by rsync etc.

+Hello Joey, I would be very much interested in a walkthrough for direct mode, as detailed as the one currently published. I see the comments in the current walkthrough on some differences to direct mode, but to me it is not obvious what best practices for git-annex use would be in direct mode, with and without the assistant. For a mix of Linux, OS X and Windows installations in the homes, it may also be interesting to see how to best set up the individual machines. Many thanks -

+I just discovered there were 30GB in this tmp directory. Here are the file names. It seems that the file names are partial (they are missing some characters: it seems most file names are missing the last 16 characters and the file extension). As I'm in dire need of disk space, I'm going to delete this files now.

+Hi
+
+I am using git-annex even if people I exchange data with (currently) don‘t use it for there data. My idea behind this is that I would like to know from where I got a file, whom I gave a file and who does (probably) still have a copy of the file. To do this you need to trick git-annex location tracking feature a bit. I successfully managed to achieve this in a simple data exchange which only consisted of me coping over files to one of my git-annex repos. I did the following to make git-annex believe that the files are in two repos without the need to *copy* them around the repos.
+
+This is what I did in this simple case:
+
+1. mounted the drive from someone
+2. made a clone of my git-annex repo on the filesystem which should hold the copy of the data
+3. initialized the cloned repo with `git annex init "Drive from person X"`
+4. imported the files to the cloned repo with `git annex import --duplicate $path_to_files_from_person_x`
+5. `git annex sync` in the cloned repo
+6. `git annex sync` in main repo
+7. `git annex move . --to origin` in the cloned repo
+
+The impotent part (and the limit) here was that you can not sync these two repos after you moved files to the main repo. The problem is that there will be situations where I will have to sync them also after moving files around (for example if I want to store new files in multiple repos (and not just one main repo), or if I also want to copy files over to drives from someone).
+
+Note: I have also worked out a solution to allow someone to choose which files he/she would like to get as described [on superuser.com](http://superuser.com/a/717689).
+
+Are there better ways to fake location information then the thing I came up with (except making multiple repos for one person/drive)? Can multiple remotes be merged to one remote?

+Hi,
+
+I have two repo one in direct (on windows) and one in indirect mode. From time to time the files in the direct repo are replaced by empty files however running git annex fsck always solves it.
+The problem is that today I did run git annex sync before running git annex fsck and git annex has then created two -variants for each of my files one empty and one with the content.
+I guess the easier for me is to just scrap that repo and make a new one however how do I prevent the changes to propagate now? I guess that if I now run git annex sync on my other repo all those small files are going to have linked created for them there as well.
+
+I hope this is clear,
+Thanks in advance.

+I don't see any need to scrap the repository. Since you have an indirect mode repsitory, you can use `git log` in there to find commits you don't like, and run `git revert` to revert them. So if a bad commit comes down from windows, you can just undo it. That's why we use git, yes?
+
+I'm much more curious about the circumstances that cause empty files to end up in the direct mode repository.

+ date="2014-03-20T21:55:26Z"
+ content="""
+Joey,
+
+I have sometimes experienced that there is way too much content in the `.git/annex/objects` folder.  For instance, my terminal emulator recently crashed during a sync which seemed to create a lot of folders.  
+
+In the annex repo where this happened I now got way too many folders (annex sometimes complain about no. of inodes or something like that) and I don't know how to clean it correctly.
+
+Here's a \"screenshot\":
+
+    [doc.annex] $ ls -a
+    .  ..  documents  .git  .gitignore
+    [doc.annex] $ find . -type d | wc -l
+    38568
+    [doc.annex] $ git annex fsck  > /dev/null 2>&1
+    [doc.annex] $ find . -type d | wc -l
+    38568
+    [doc.annex] $ git annex repair  > /dev/null 2>&1
+    [doc.annex] $ find . -type d | wc -l
+    38568
+    [doc.annex] $ find documents -type d | wc -l
+    1513
+    [doc.annex] $ find .git/annex/objects -type d | wc -l
+    36712
+
+This is a `direct`-mode repo.  With `.git/objectcts` I can use `git gc`.  How can I tell annex to tidy up?  I have tried `fsck`, `repair` and `forget`.
+
+Any hints on how to deal with this?  Other than manually clean up by deleting `.git/annex/objects` and rerunning `fsck`?

+1. This followup question seems to have nothing to do with the original question. (The aswer to the original question was `git annex fsck --fast`.)
+2. I find it hard to believe that a crashing terminal emulator will create a lot of folders.
+3. You show 36k subdirectories in .git/annex/objects. If I make a *tiny* 100 mb ext2 filesystem, it has 26k inodes. A 200 mb filesystem has 50k. So we're talking about a number of directories that is only large when using hardware from 1996.
+
+I'm not convinced yet that anything is wrong, or that there's anything you can do to improve matters. In any case, see [[todo/wishlist:_pack_metadata_in_direct_mode]].

+Hi
+
+I have read some info about telehash. It looks verry promising. I was wondering though how syncing will work. For example. I have 2 computers. Normal PC and a laptop. Mostly only one is on at a time. 
+
+* Sync messages will be sent over telehash protocoll ?
+* What if I push some changes (they will be synced to a shared repository) and laptop is not online. How will git-annex know what to sync from a shared repository ?
+* Do you plan to send files/commits directly to online clients ? If 2 friends are online at the same time.
+* What will happen with data on a shared repository if all clients have synced content ? Will it be deleted since it is not longer needed ?
+
+I was thinking of a model where you sync directly (if possible), and just drop shared content to repo for offline users. Whan everyone have pulled content it may be removed from shared repo.

+I have no idea how to search for this here, so I'll just go the "lazy web" approach and just ask.
+
+Say I have two "conference" repos. One is the famous [conference procedings](https://github.com/RichiH/conference_proceedings) repo, and another one is a totally unrelated repo of local conferences that are not of world-wide significance. Let's call this second repo `presentations`.
+
+I would like to have my videos of both repos in a single repo.
+
+Can I add the `conference procedings` repo as a git remote to the `presentations` repo and have it do the right thing?
+
+In fact, I'm not even sure what the right thing would be here, I guess that's the first thing I would like to clear up. But I would like to do things like what the new [[metadata]] system does. For example, I would have only the "Debian" directory from `conference procedings` in my `presentations` repo.
+
+How would that work? Would I need to do some [subtree merging](http://git-scm.com/book/ch6-7.html) magic? or `git subtree`? or submodules? or should i just use myrepos and pretend I never brought up this idea?

+It might help if you think about these two different repositories as branches. You have 2 branches with different files in them, and you want to produce a third branch with some mix of the two.
+
+I think git is perfectly capable of doing that. Where it gets hairy is dealing with merges when either of the 2 repositories change going forward. The same as if you've forked and modified source code, you will need to do *something* to resolve merges.

+I agree with you that things must stay simple. All what should be done is having the same effects like normal globs but adding arithmetic comparisons to it (could you think about a globbing extension over numeric values?). Then the generated views will have the same properties/semnatic as the normal glob'ed views without other side effects (if you want to go that far, this would even hold true for disjunct, parenthesized and otherwise complex expression).
+
+Example (how it should work, except my bug report 'set metadata on wrong files')
+
+    git annex metadata a.txt -s foo=bar -s num=1
+    git annex metadata b.txt -s foo=baz -s num=2
+    git annex metadata c.txt -s foo=barf -s num=3
+
+    git annex view foo=bar* num=* -ne 2
+
+should give
+    ./bar/1/a.txt ./barf/3/c.txt
+
+am I right now than one could
+
+    mkdir -p ./baz/2
+    mv /bar/1/a.txt ./baz/2
+
+to change the metadata of a.txt, despite the foo=baz and num=2 fields where initially filtered out when creating the view?
+If this assumption is true then having arithmetic filters, no matter how complex they are won't change the existing semantics over what globs do.

+I use something like `git annex view 'rating=*'` to view files sorted by rating but this view does not include files which don‘t have a rating yet. What I was looking for is a way to show tagged files and untagged files in one view.

+
+## general
+
+If your file manager can run a command on a file, it should be easy to
+integrate git-annex with it. A simple script will suffice:
+
+	#!/bun/sh
+	git-annex get --notify-start --notify-finish -- "$@"
+
+The --notify-start and --notify-stop options make git-annex display a
+desktop notification. This is useful to give the user an indication that
+their action took effect. Desktop notifications are currently only
+implenented for Linux.

+I have played around with views and found out that I can create new tags by creating directories in the view and that I can created files in those new directories that are not contained in the original working tree. The behavoiur of git annex in this behaviour is a bit strange.
+
+Assume for example you have a file \"foo\" with tag \"t1\" and switch to the tag view. Then create a directory \"t2\" and a file \"bar\" in it. Add the file, sync, and switch back to the master branch. If you enter the tag view again, the directory \"t2\" will be vanished, i.e. your newly created file is gone, too. This is not surprising, as the file has never been added to the original working tree. However, another \"git annex sync\" will restore the file.
+
+I am unsure what behaviour I would expect, maybe it shouldn't be possible to files to a view in the first place, or newly created files might be collected in a separate branch. On the other hand, it seems reasonable to add a new file with a new tag at the same time. Anyway, I found it confusing that I can seemingly lose a file like this. It took me a bit of time to figure out that another sync recovers the file.

 Now all gitolite repositories can be used with git-annex just as any
 ssh remote normally would be used. For example:

+ date="2014-03-25T06:58:56Z"
+ content="""
+The latest commit in the gitolite repository \"git-annex support, finally in master!\" looks really promissing. I'm currently using ubuntu trusty with updated gitolite3 package and the configuration provided by Khaije. One line needs to be changed: 'git-annex-shell' => 'ua', instead of 'git-annex-shell' =>1,
+
+However, one little detail is still open for me. I need to call the server side \"git annex init\" on the server (sudo su gitolite3; cd ~/repositories/testing.git && git annex init). I cannot find a way to initialize the server from client side. E.g. git annex init && git push --all is not enough. The man page describes git annex initremote for other server types but not for gitolite remotes. Wouldn't we need something similar for gitolite as well? Or is there a better solution which I do not recognize?

+@Adrian, that's good news. It would be helpful if someone could update the top of this page to document how to use git-annex with the new version of gitolite.
+This is a wiki..
+
+You're not supposed to need to use initremote when dealing with normal git remotes. It seems that something got lost that automatically initialize the remote repository in this situation. I've fixed it so that it will be set up when `git-annex-shell configlist` is run.

+Using the URL backend for youtube is intentional. Youtube may serve up different encodings for the same video over time, and this way git-annex treats them all as equvilant. If you want to \"freeze\" the repository to the current one, use `git annex migrate`, and be prepared for `git annex get --from web` to not work long term.

+re #3, sure, magnet link support would be awesome as well but i'd prefer to start with something i could digest more easily.
+
+looking at the source, it seems to me that the [quvi implementation](http://source.git-annex.branchable.com/?p=source.git;a=commitdiff;h=46b6d75) could serve as an example as to how this would work. more particularly, there's this concept of a [downloader](http://source.git-annex.branchable.com/?p=source.git;a=commitdiff;h=46b6d75#patch5) that can be used to tap into `addurl` directly. there's a check to see if the downloader is supported, for example.
+
+so we would need:
+
+1. see if the URL / magnet link can be turned into a .torrent somehow
+2. figure out what the filename(s!) will be
+3. start the torrent and wait for its completion, ideally with some progress bar
+
+i asked around to see if transmission-remote could do this, because it would be nice if we could use an existing daemon (instead of having to rebootstrap the whole DHT at every download). so far, I can't see how it could be done cleanly - maybe we would need to use the simpler \"bittorrent\" commandline client, or maybe tap into libtorrent...
+
+in any case, one of the key problems here is that addurl assumes that the URL maps to a single file, not a directory full of file, which is the way bittorrent works. I am not sure how to fix that assumption.

+
+You have a few annexes that the assistant is watching for you. You're somewhere with poor wifi speed. You also just added a bunch of big files to a few annexes.

+## Proposal:
+
+A "Pause all transfers" button in the webapp that pauses all transfers from all annexes the assistant is watching.

+It should toggle to "Resume all transfers" when pushed so you can also easily start the transfers again when you get somewhere else.

+Having the option of choosing for every file if we want it in our repository or not would be a great feature. It is currently possible using the wanted expression, but it is not very flexible, or it becomes unmaintainable.
+
+I tried with two repositories a and b, with the following wanted expressions :
+
+* for a: `not metadata=unwanted=<uuid-of-a>`
+* for b: `not metadata=unwanted=<uuid-of-b>`
+
+I think those expressions should be included in standard wanted expressions.
+
+Also, to improbe the feature, it should be possible to set (or remove) metadata in directories, and those should automatically affect their content.
+
+And we could imagine a `git annex unwant` command that would add the unwanted metadata to a file, copy it to other repositories, and attempt to drop it.

+Sure, git-annex prevents me from dropping files unless there are numcopies around elsewhere, but shouldn't it also ensure that numcopies cannot be set unless that requirement is already met?
+
+Furthermore, shouldn't it ensure that when new files are added, they are automatically distributed to fulfill the requirement?
