Or even if it did happen every time (perhaps because you appear to be running the git-annex assistant and it might be adding a lot of files in the background), the filename in the error message would be different every time. I have just committed a fix for that problem to git, but am not 100% sure it's really the problem that you're seeing. +"""]]
