I wish that I had a good answer for you, but since you're using direct mode, I really do not!
You can run this to see the status:
git -c core.bare=false status
That's safe. Everything below has a good chance of losing data if not used carefully.
You can run a command like this to *delete* an unwanted file (that is shown as a new file in the above).
git -c core.bare=false rm -f unwanted_file
If the status shows a file as being modified, you can run this to throw away the modified version. This does not put back the old version! It will leave you with a broken symlink.
git -c core.bare=false reset modified_file
git -c core.bare=false checkout modified_file
git annex fsck
If you're lucky, you can then `git annex get` to get the old version from some other repository that still has it.
