Setup:
|
|
|
|
* fresh install of Debian Wheezy with git-annex 4.20130227 pulled in from unstable
|
|
|
|
Steps:
|
|
|
|
* clone existing repository and activate assistant
|
|
* Have USB drive, U, with repository group `backup` and preferred content string `standard`
|
|
|
|
Expected:
|
|
|
|
* Assistant never ever tries to drop anything from U
|
|
|
|
Actual:
|
|
|
|
* Assistant immediately tries to drop files from U; fortunately I didn't have the USB drive plugged in
|
|
* Changing the preferred content string of U to `present or include=*` stops the dropping, but this was never required before
|
|
|
|
Additional information:
|
|
|
|
* The files that the Assistant started trying to drop were, I believe, the first (alphabetically) files in my repository to contain non-ascii characters in their file names (some French accented letters)
|
|
|
|
Thanks.
