They are all running git-annex version 5.20150916 installed through homebrew. The server is running 10.10 Yosemite and the clients are running 10.9 Mavericks. There is a symlink on the server in /usr/bin/git-annex and /usr/bin/git-annex-shell to /usr/local/bin/git-annex and /usr/local/bin/git-annex-shell, which then symlinks to the latest version in homebrew's directories. I did this because I was previously facing an error where git-annex was not found on the server (it would not work if you ran ssh tom@server git-annex). + +I'm currently at the step after cloning and cding into the repository on the client.
