### Please describe the problem.
After successfully adding tags to files, I'm unable to view them. I paste the input and output to reproduce the problem below.
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
$ git annex init
init
Detected a filesystem without fifo support.
Disabling ssh connection caching.
Detected a crippled filesystem.
(scanning for unlocked files...)
Entering an adjusted branch where files are unlocked as this filesystem does not support locked files.
Switched to branch 'adjusted/master(unlocked)'
ok
(recording state in git...)
$ touch test-file.txt
$ git annex add .
add test-file.txt
ok
(recording state in git...)
$ git commit -a -m "Adds a file."
warning: LF will be replaced by CRLF in test-file.txt.
The file will have its original line endings in your working directory

Another git process seems to be running in this repository, e.g.
an editor opened by 'git commit'. Please make sure all processes
are terminated then try again. If it still fails, a git process
may have crashed in this repository earlier:
remove the file manually to continue.

### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
I'm pretty hyped about git annex. I finally sat down and started backing up my data on different drives and git annex is about the perfect solution. Or at least it does everything I want it to (especially if the above tagging issue can be resolved). I've even thought about writing little cli apps over it, like an ejournal or recipe organizer.
