+### Please describe the problem.
+If `.gitattributes` contains `* annex.largefiles=anything`, then `git add` will add files in an unlocked state. According to this page (https://git-annex.branchable.com/tips/unlocked_files/) though, git-annex should add files in a locked state by default:
+> By default, git-annex commands will add files in locked mode, unless used on a filesystem that does not support symlinks, when unlocked mode is used. To make them always use unlocked mode, run: git config annex.addunlocked true
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+```
+cd $(mktemp -d)
+git init
+echo '* annex.largefiles=anything' > .gitattributes
+git add .
+git commit -m "Add gitattributes"
+git annex init
+cat >> annexed.txt <<EOF
+This text file is unlocked
+EOF
+git add .
+git commit -m "Add annexed"
+```
+
+Observe that annexed.txt will be added as a pointer file, i.e. in unlocked mode.
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+Latest from conda-forge on Ubuntu 22.04: git-annex 10.20230626 alldep_h97b9560_100 conda-forge
