+### Please describe the problem.
+
+The assistant/webapp doesn't drop files from the local (source) repository after transferring it to the 2 backup repositories (numcopies 2), but they are listed with:
+
+    git annex find --want-drop
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+#### mintcream ####
+
+    git init annex
+    cd ~/annex
+    git commit -m "create" --allow-empty
+    git annex init mintcream
+    git annex numcopies 2
+    git annex group here source
+    git config annex.autocommit false
+    git annex webapp
+
+#### liquorice ####
+
+    git init annex
+    cd ~/annex
+    git annex init liquorice
+    git annex group here backup
+
+#### candyfloss ####
+
+    git init annex
+    cd ~/annex
+    git annex init candyfloss
+    git annex group here backup
+
+#### mintcream ####
+
+    (add both backup repositories in webapp as "remote repositories")
+    (copy files into ~/annex directory)
+    git annex add
+    git commit -m "add some files"
+    (use "sync now" to prod assistant into noticing the commit)
+
+### What was I expecting to happen? ###
+
+The assistant to transfer the files to liquorice and candyfloss, then for the assistant to drop the files from mintcream.
+
+### What actually happened? ###
+
+The assistant transfers the files to liquorice and candyfloss. No files are dropped from mintcream.
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+git-annex version: 5.20140707-g923b436
+
+Arch Linux (git-annex-bin from AUR)
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
+
+I wish to retain control of the commits on "master" (annex.autocommit false) but want the assistant to handle moving/dropping the files as required in the background.
+
+    git annex drop --auto
+
+works as expected.
