Check it into git. do "git annex init" to make the directory into a git annex repo. do "git annex direct" to put it in direct mode. do "git annex assistant" to start the assistant and watch it with "git annex webapp". + +Open the directory in the finder. Drag in some files and watch the assistant as it checks them in. Play with your window's viewing preferences, maybe view things as "icons" so that the finder is forced to store metadata about where you dragged the icons in the window in the .DS_Store file. As you do this, watch the webapp. .DS_Store will start to be checked into git annex, and rechecked in frequently as it is updated. Git annex assistant is not respecting the .gitignore file. Is there some other way to tell git annex assistant that certain files should be ignored than .gitignore? + + +What is the expected output?
