@joeyh.name: did you notice the subtle difference between the filename in the input and the output in your example? I think it might cause problems due to a discrepancy between `git annex` and the file system when checking if a file exists or not. Not sure if the problem is in `git` or `git annex`; what do you think?
```text
git annex add George\'s\ Cafe\314\201
...
create mode 120000 \"George's Caf\303\251\"
```
See [Unicode Subtleties in the HFS Plus Volume Format](https://developer.apple.com/legacy/library/technotes/tn/tn1150.html#UnicodeSubtleties) and `git config` for [`core.precomposeUnicode`](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-config#git-config-coreprecomposeUnicode)
Here's a `printf` example.
```bash
printf '\303\251 e\314\201 (note double space) \314\201'
```
```text
é é (note double space) ́
```
```bash
printf '\303\251 e\314\201 (note double space) \314\201' | LC_ALL=C vis -otc
```
```text
\303\251 e\314\201 (note double space) \314\201
```
