The "git annex add" command adds new file to the annex. However ".DS_Store" files are ignored by git-annex. Is there a list of files that are being ignored?
Maybe sometimes it's useful to add .DS_Store extended attribute data to the annex to ensure a complete sync of Mac files...

git-annex ignores whatever git does. See `git-ls-files` and the gitignore configuration.

After moving some files (about 1G, some big and some small files) in and out the annex, I noticed that the size of the repository has grown quite a bit. My empty repository now is over 100 MB (even after "git annex dropunused ..." and "git gc").
Most of this size is not Git metadata but many small files in the git-annex branch that seem to hold information about files I deleted (even in the other known repositories).
So is there a way to get rid of these useless but space consuming information?
(Maybe there is no (elegant) way to remove the symlink versions from the Git history (is there?), but it would already be nice if those small git-annex metadata files could be removed)

First of all thanks for the great work. git-annex looks very nice already!
I wonder if it's possible to add Git repositories to the annex. In my current Dropbox setup I drop some small Git repositories into the Dropbox to keep them in sync on two computers.
This is obviously not possible with git-annex, as the annex itself is a Git repository and sub-repositories (directories with .git folders) are ignored. But in some cases people might want to be able to drop "anything" into the annex, maybe even Git repositories (e.g. the "nomad" usecase)...

It was fast to git annex a bunch of files. But git unannex seems a lot slower. Is there a faster way to get files out of git annex? Or to replace the symlinks with real files and then I could just remove the .git directory? I shouldn't have put so many in as a test but they are there now.

It currently commits once per file, which is slow. `Command/Unannex.hs` explains why this is necessary. If I think of a way to avoid that, I will.

Has git-annex been tested with an NTFS-formatted disk under Linux ? NTFS is supposed to be case-sensitive and to allow symlinks, and these are supposed to work with ntfs3g.
