+Per forum post linking to this bug, git commit can be very slow when run in a filesystem without symlink support, and seems to be reading the content of files just in order to show typechanged messages in the status.
+
+So, git annex sync should stop using git commit when in direct mode, and instead manually make its own commit. Git.Branch.commit and Git.Branch.update should be able to easily be used for this.

+Hmm. Seems to me that `git commit` is trying to download the whole big file from the SMB share. Perhaps just to compare it with the symlink it expects to be there?
+
+When I try this, in a large direct mode repository with some video from *my* family, `git commit` does not open the file (verified with strace), let alone read it, and so finishes in well under 1 second. 
+
+Aha, I was able to reproduce `git commit` doing that with a repo on a FAT filesystem. git opens the file, and mmaps it, and I guess it proceeds to try to diff it against the symlink standin file it expected to be there.
+
+This is particularly unfortunate, since `git commit` is only, I think, doing this so that it can print out a \"Changes not staged for commit\" message. Which git-annex sync throws away. There seems to be no git commit option that disables this behavior.
+
+I think that this calls for making `git annex sync` not use `git commit` any longer, and instead manually build the commit using `git-write-tree` and `git-commit-tree`. Since I don't know if I will get to this before the thanksgiving holiday, I am creating a bug: [[bugs/direct_mode_sync_should_avoid_git_commit]]

+I think the most likely reason for git commit to be slow on your setup is that it probably rewrites .git/index. If you have a lot of files in your repository, the index file will be large and rewriting the index file will involve re-transferring it all over the network to the SMB share. 
+
+It's also possible that git commit scans the whole work tree, although I don't think it should -- it's not been told to with -a.
+
+You may be able to find what's taking a long time by
+
+    strace git --git-dir=/Volumes/Video/Videos/.git --work-tree=/Volumes/Video/Videos -c core.bare=false commit -m \"git-annex automatic sync\"
