+### Please describe the problem.
+
+With the upgrade to git-annex 6.20170925 I can no longer copy files to box via webdav. I notice that the changelog suggests that there were many changes to the webdav backend, including a new path for temporary files and url-escaping of file names. I have been using webdav + Box successfully for almost two years. My box/webdav backed was set up with chunking and encryption:
+
+WEBDAV_USERNAME=[username} WEBDAV_PASSWORD=[passwd] git annex initremote box type=webdav url=https://dav.box.com/dav/git-annex chunk=100mb keyid=[keyid]
+
+Now when I try to add and copy a file to webdav I get the following error:
+
+    (checking box...)                         
+     DAV failure: Status {statusCode = 405, statusMessage = "Method Not Allowed"} "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>\n<d:error xmlns:d=\"DAV:\" 
+     xmlns:s=\"http://sabredav.org/ns\">\n  <s:exception>Sabre_DAV_Exception_MethodNotAllowed</s:exception>\n  <s:message>The resource you tried to create 
+     already exists</s:message>\n</d:error>\n"
+    CallStack (from HasCallStack):     
+     error, called at ./Remote/WebDAV.hs:381:78 in main:Remote.WebDAV failed            
+   (recording state in git...)      
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+Add a file to an annex repo with a webdav backend set up per the settings above:
+    
+     git add test.pdf
+
+Attempt to copy that file to the webdav backend:
+
+     git copy -t box test.pdf

+### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
+
+Yes! A huge word of thanks for this amazing software! Since I work on multiple linux boxes, git annex keeps track of all my big files and enables me to move them back and forth with minimal fuss.
