@ -82,16 +82,14 @@ Many races need to be dealt with by this code. Here are some of them.
* File is added and then replaced with another file before the annex add
stages the symlink in git.
**Currently unfixed**; `git add` will be run on the new file, which is
not at all good when it's big. Could be dealt with by using `git
update-index` to manually put the symlink into the index without git
Now fixed; `git annex watch` avoids running `git add` because of this
race. Instead, it stages symlinks directly into the index, without
looking at what's currently on disk.
* Link is moved, fixed link is written by fix event, but then that is
removed by the user and replaced with a file before the event finishes.
**Currently unfixed**: `git add` will be run on the file. Basically same
effect as previous race above.
Now fixed; same fix as previous race above.
* File is removed and then re-added before the removal event starts.
