### Please describe the problem.
|
|
This is less of a bug and more of a feature(?) request. Currently, when assigning metadata to a datafile, git annex (v5.20150710-g8fd705) will produce no error or warning message if the file entered does not exist. This can be a tad confusing to users who might expect to see some output if they typed their path wrong. A successful `git annex metadata <filename> -s tags=best` will produce output acknowledging the change, but a failure produces no output at all. A quick check if the file exists, and a `File does not exist` error message if not, would be easy implement and helpful to new users.
