A faster way of doing uninit is the following:
```cp --no-clobber --dereference --recursive --preserve=all --reflink=auto --verbose ./git_annex_repo/your_symlinks/ ./target_dir/```
This will simply copy (thin COW copy) symlinks (dereferenced) as normal files preserving the mtime, etc. the resulting ./target_dir/ will have your files if they existed in this annex or broken symlinks if the files were not here.
