Joey,
I have sometimes experienced that there is way too much content in the `.git/annex/objects` folder. For instance, my terminal emulator recently crashed during a sync which seemed to create a lot of folders.
In the annex repo where this happened I now got way too many folders (annex sometimes complain about no. of inodes or something like that) and I don't know how to clean it correctly.
Here's a \"screenshot\":
[doc.annex] $ ls -a
. .. documents .git .gitignore
[doc.annex] $ find . -type d | wc -l
38568
[doc.annex] $ git annex fsck > /dev/null 2>&1
[doc.annex] $ find . -type d | wc -l
38568
[doc.annex] $ git annex repair > /dev/null 2>&1
[doc.annex] $ find . -type d | wc -l
38568
[doc.annex] $ find documents -type d | wc -l
1513
[doc.annex] $ find .git/annex/objects -type d | wc -l

This is a `direct`-mode repo. With `.git/objectcts` I can use `git gc`. How can I tell annex to tidy up? I have tried `fsck`, `repair` and `forget`.
Any hints on how to deal with this? Other than manually clean up by deleting `.git/annex/objects` and rerunning `fsck`?
