### 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)
I'm really loving git-annex. I've been reading up and I'm more than halfway through the devlog and I'm hoping to use git-annex for a lot and a long while. Mostly, I'm expecting to use it on Linux systems, but I'd love to be able to rely on it on my (Windows) work laptop as well. Thanks for looking at my report!

Well, this appears to be a case where the assistant somehow misses the
rename of the file, so it has not gotten around to annexing it.
You can get the same error message when not using the assistant, eg:
# touch foo
# git-annex info foo
fatal: Not a valid object name foo
info foo (not a directory or an annexed file or a treeish or a remote or a uuid) failed
I guess that `git-annex add` would resolve your problem.
The assistant should also notice the file the next time it starts up,
and add it the same as it would any new file.
