Sure, if you set receive.denyCurrentBranch that way, you let git update
the repo's master branch while the index has not been updated. The result
is the same as if you had run "git rm" on all newly added files. Same
happens when using regular "git push origin master" as well.
git-annex sync tries to push the master branch because
1. The remote may be a bare repository, and then you certianly *do* want
the master branch to be pushed. Note that there is, generally, no way
to tell if a given git remote is a bare repository or not.
2. The user may have some config like receive.denyCurrentBranch=updateInstead
which will work fine if the master branch is pushed.
So if the original bug reporter had a setting like
receive.denyCurrentBranch=warn, then yes it would be user error.
Unfortunately, they didn't say how they had things configured. I still
await a followup from them.
