Setup:
|
|
|
|
* Fresh install of Debian Wheezy on machines A & B, git-annex 4.20130227 pulled in from unstable
|
|
* On both machines, clone old repository which contains both annexed files and a three small files checked straight into git
|
|
|
|
Steps:
|
|
|
|
* On both machines, use webapp to create `~/.config/git-annex/autostart` by just firing it up and typing in location of existing repository
|
|
* Move a new file into B's annex, in a subdirectory that is preferred on both A & B
|
|
|
|
Expected:
|
|
|
|
* The new file is copied over to A and everything remains in indirect mode
|
|
* Three files checked straight into git remain checked straight into git (see below for why this is a variant on [[bugs/Switching_between_direct_and_indirect_stomps_on___39__regular__39___git_files/]])
|
|
|
|
Actual:
|
|
|
|
* New file copied over but seems to be in direct mode, while all the other content that is present is still symlinked
|
|
* Files checked into git converted to direct mode files too (can tell this has happened by following step:)
|
|
* Typing `git annex indirect` on A & B shows conversion of precisely four files (three files originally checked into git and new file added to B ) back to indirect
|
|
|
|
Thanks.
