3. Create an empty directory where your repo will be. Then enable case sensitivity `setfattr -n system.wsl_case_sensitive -v 1 <path>`. This attribute will be automatically and recursively applied to any future subdirectories. If setfattr(1) errs out with permission denied, you can also effect the same change in CMD.EXE / Windows Powershell as admin with `fsutil file setCaseSensitiveInfo <path> enable`. You can check that the setting is enabled with `getfattr -n system.wsl_case_sensitive <path>` under WSL1. 3. Create an empty directory where your repo will be.

4. Create the repo however you like (see steps below for cloning a repo with ssh). Immediately after `git annex init`, do `git config annex.crippledfilesystem true`. If you set `crippledfilesystem` before init, then git annex will try to enter an adjusted branch and trigger the first bug. If you do not set `crippledfilesystem` after init, you will trigger the second bug when doing `git annex add`. 4. Create the repo however you like (see steps below for cloning a repo with ssh).
