Several bugfixes from user feedback today.
Made the assistant detect misconfigured systems where git will fail to
commit because it cannot determine the user's name or email address, and
dummy up enough info to get git working. It makes sense for git and
git-annex to fail at the command line on such a misconfigured system, so
the user can fix it, but for the assistant it makes sense to plow on and just
work.
I found a big gap in direct mode -- all the special remotes expected to find
content in the indirect mode location when transferring to the remote. It
was easy to fix once I noticed the problem. This is a big enough bug that
I will be making a new release in a day or so.
Also, got fsck working in direct mode. It doesn't check as many things
as in indirect mode, because direct mode files can be modified at any time.
Still, it's usable, and useful.
