* `git annex drop` can check that a bare repository has a copy of data
that is being dropped.
* `git annex get` can transfer data from a bare repository.
* Most other stuff (ie, init, describe, trust, etc.)
There are a few caveats to keep in mind when using bare repositories:
* Some subcommands, like `fsck`, `trust`, `unused` and `fromkey`,
cannot be run in a bare repository. Those subcommands will
refuse to do anything.
* `git annex setkey` is a plumbing-level command; using it manually
to add content to a bare repository is not recommended, since there
will be no record that the content is stored there.
* A few subcommands, like `unused` cannot be run in a bare repository.
Those subcommands will refuse to do anything.
