+### Please describe the problem.
+I could not find a way to abort the addition of a new remote repository.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+- start adding a remote repository (unencrypted, with git-annex installed);
+- forget to create the folder on the remote host;
+- navigate away from the repository page;
+- the dashboard says the repository is partially set-up, and the only thing one can do is look at the log (which says the folder is missing).
+
+I was able to solve it by creating another repository with the exact same data.
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+Version: 4.20131002-gf25991c on OS X 10.8.5
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.

+# If you can, paste a complete transcript of the problem occurring here.
+# If the problem is with the git-annex assistant, paste in .git/annex/daemon.log

+# End of transcript or log.
