Hello, I have a question about my tipical use case.
I have a laptop with limited ssd space, 3 USB disks and I want to keep them in sync without using my laptop space.
I specify:
I want
/media/disk1/Backup
/media/disk2/Backup
/media/disk3/Backup
to be identical and synced, I can connect all the 3 drives to my laptop when I want to sync.
Usually I add a batch of photos from the pc to one of the disk and git annex sync the files for me.
BUT...
In my future-proof environment I really prefer to have my files stored in "direct" mode in all of the 3 repositories, is this possible?
So if something bad will happen I can just plug the disk in a brand new laptop and access my backup.
How can I achieve this result?
Thank you for your help

I've been maintaining the recipe for installing git-annex with the [conda-forge](https://conda-forge.org/) package manager. I'm having trouble making the recipe work with the current conda-forge version, and would much appreciate any help, especially from people who understand Haskell/ghc/stack/cabal . The recipe is here: https://github.com/conda-forge/git-annex-feedstock . I keep getting error related to not finding libgmp, even though it is installed as a dependency:
https://circleci.com/gh/conda-forge/git-annex-feedstock/157?utm_campaign=vcs-integration-link&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=github-build-link
The benefit of having a working conda-forge recipe is that it enables git-annex installation without root privileges, and enables building other conda-installable tools that depend on git-annex.
Thanks,
ilya
