* rsync special remotes are known buggy.
* Bad file locking, it's probably not safe to run more than one git-annex
process at the same time on Windows.
* `git annex watch` builds, but it has not been tested at all.
* `git annex assistant` builds, but has not been tested, and is known
to not download any files. (transferrer doesn't built yet)
* Webapp doesn't build yet.
* Ssh connection caching does not work on Windows, so `git annex get`
has to connect twice to the remote system over ssh per file, which
is much slower than on systems supporting connection caching.
* Webapp doesn't build yet.
* `git annex watch` builds, but does not quite work.
* `git annex assistant` builds, but has not been tested, and is known
to not download any files. (transferrer doesn't built yet)
* watch and assistant cannot be built with cabal. Possibly due to too many
files overflowing command line length limit at link stage.
To build a binary with them:
`ghc --make git-annex.hs -threaded -XPackageImports -DWITH_ASSISTANT=1 -DWITH_WIN32NOTIFY=1`
(should add all the other flags cabal uses)
