Note: this seems like there was at least one dupe opened about this in [[bugs/annex_get_fails_from_read-only_filesystem]].
I concede that this may refer to many different issues, so here's a short inventory of issues with readonly repositories:
* trying to add an external readonly drive through the webapp: not detected: see [[todo/show_readonly_removable_drives_in_the_webapp]]
* trying to add an external readonly drive through the commandline: fails to sync? - couldn't reproduce locally, i will need to go back to that machine for more tests :(
* trying to add a ssh readonly remote through the webapp: fails to sync and considers the remote "git-only" (which also fails) - couldn't reproduce locally either - maybe this is related to the upgrade option in [[bugs/annex_get_fails_from_read-only_filesystem/]]
* trying to add a local readonly remote through the webapp: fails to add, see [[bugs/cannot_add_local_readonly_repo_through_the_webapp]]
* failing to sync with a readonly remote of a different version: still an issue, see [[bugs/annex_get_fails_from_read-only_filesystem/]] - at least content should be syncable even if the upgrade fails (think of failure conditions such as broken hard drives that are put in readonly mode or ddrescue'd disk images)
