+I am not able to reproduce this bug on MacOS 10.12.6, using git-annex 7.20190508-g06bc46eaa with the git-annex bundled git version 2.18.0. Also, I don't have \"ci\" options on my git so I did `git commit -m 'init' --allow-empty`.
+
+What is your output of `git-annex version`? What version of `git` and `MacOS` are you using?
+
