+and I would still maintain my view that removing intermediate directory withing .git/annex/objects whose  current roles is simply to provide read-only protection might half the burden on the underlying file system, either annex repo(s) are multitude or a single one [1]. lean view [2] could also be of good use as well[2].  Similar exercises with simulated annex'es with >5M files also \"helped\" to identify problems with ZOL (ZFS on Linux) caching suggesting that even mere handling of such vast arrays of tiny files (as dead symlinks) might give filesystems a good test, so the leaner impact would be -- the better.

 I even [tried renaming the remote to the UUID... didn't work](http://ix.io/gJI)
 
+**Solution**: Neither UUID or the description is used by get. I also should not have resorted to [[special_remotes]] setup for setting up a git remote.

 # Issue 1
 
 Keep getting `git-annex-shell: user error (git ["config","--null","--list"] exited 126)` even though when I run `git config` my return error is 0: <http://ix.io/gJG>
 
+**Solution**: This was because my ssh git URL was incorrect. A better error message has been implemented: <http://source.git-annex.branchable.com/?p=source.git;a=commitdiff;h=3439ea4>

 # Issue 2
 
 I can't work out the [git-annex remote type for ssh, in order to rename the remote](http://ix.io/gJH). I think the issue here is that my ssh remote name "Jamie's bible" doesn't match with the `git remote` name bible.
 
+**Solution**: A _rw_ git URL configured with `git remote` are not [[special_remotes]]. I confused the two. If you need to define public git URL ([[time capsule use case|future_proofing]]), it is possible with an undocumented `git annex initremote foo type=git location=url`. So to summarise, just manually setup the git remote `git remote add ssh://someplace/path/to/repo` (don't worry about the name) and git-annex will find it!

+I archive all my photos/video to a bucket CNAMED to http://s.natalian.org/ with a simple YYYY-MM-DD prefix.

+I'm not doing a great job of backing up the S3 bucket to another S3 compatible host, since `s3cmd sync`/`aws sync` is so slow, but that's beside the point. Ideally it could be tracked by **git-annex**!
+
+Adding all the objects into git-annex, IIUC currently would require me:
+
+* to download the ~80GB and then add them to git-annex
+* there is no way to keep my current S3 URLs with the [[special_remotes/S3]] since `git-annex` has it's own special way of storing to a bucket, e.g. https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/s3-10418340-834d-41c2-b38f-7ee84bf6a23a/SHA256E-s1034208123--235e4f288d094c2e1870bc3d9d353abf34542c04c1d26905e882718a7ccf74cf.mp4 - I'd rather not have HTTP redirects
+* AFAICT there is no way currently with git-annex to mark the [[special_remotes/S3]] as public, which is needed for public URLs to work
+* AFAICT there is no current automated method the mapping via `git-annex addurl` with the public URLs of the each file in the bucket
+
+The ideal solution in my mind is for git-annex to track the contents of S3 as they are now, preserving the URLs and tracking the checksums in a separate index file.
