Prior to v6, I used `git annex add` for files that should go into the annex, and `git add` for files that should be tracked in git normally. With v6, `git add` silently adds to the annex instead, which surprised me because I didn't expect the file contents to still only reside only on the source computer after a push! I don't have `annex.largefiles` set, but it seems like this is intended behavior. Is there a way to return to v5 behavior for those two commands? Is it safe to just remove the smudge/clean filter? If so, is there a way to remove it in such a way that it propagates to all repositories? (It's currently set in `.git/info/attributes`, which overrides `.gitattributes`).
Having to come up a generic rule for `annex.largefiles` to cover all of my distinctions is difficult, and it's tedious to re-specify it for each new file. I'd much rather just be able to continue using git as usual, and explicitly choose when to invoke git-annex.
