+### Please describe the problem.
+
+I started the webapp on a pre-existing repo today, and it started adding all sorts of files which I didn't manually add, which is a little bit surprising, but "okay".
+
+The problem is that it would loop over this one file over and over again. Adding it on the commandline yields a proper error, but this doesn't seem to properly propagate to the frontend.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+Unclear.
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+4.20131105-g8efdc1a
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
+
+Here's the daemon.log:

+# If you can, paste a complete transcript of the problem occurring here.

+
+Turns out that file is owned by root, so it's an expected failure. But the webapp should simply skip this file, not loop over it.
+
+The workaround is obviously to give this file to the proper user. --[[anarcat]]

+Hello all,
+
+I'm trying to use "preferred content" with git-annex but I suspect that my version doesn't provide it.
+
+I'm using Debian "wheezy" that packs git-annex 3.20120629.
+
+I appreciate any help you can give.
+
+Thanks.
+
+Zaka.
