+You can use `git annex drop foo --from remote` to drop the file from the remote. Of course, the remote has to be accessible. You can't drop files from an offline drive that's stored in a safe..
+
+What you might be looking for is `git annex drop foo; rm foo`, followed by a git commit, and then later you can run `git annex unused` on a remote and it will let you then easily drop the files you've removed from the repository. This approach of just deleting files when you're done with them also works when using the assistant.
+
+The assistant isn't really about only keeping a subset of files on your laptop. It would like to get them all, except for ones in \"archive\" directories.
+You can configure the assistant to use manual mode, and then it doesn't download any files on its own (so you have to manually `git annex get` them), but it will still handle all the other stuff the assistant does, like automatically committing and syncing changes.
+
+An archive repository wants one copy of every file that is not already stored in some other archive repository. So an archive repository could certianly be used instead of a transfer repository. (But not a small archive repository; those only want files that are moved to \"archive\" directories.) A better choice might be to make that server be a backup repository. That makes it want *every* file, no matter what, and it follows that it would archive everything, and have everything the client wants available for transferring to it.

+You have two choices:
+
+1. Install git-annex on your server. You can then use the webapp to set up a git repository, or use the git repository you've already set up.
+
+2. Don't install git-annex on your server. Select the option in the webapp to use an encrypred rsync repository on your server. (The screen you described the webapp showing had a button to use this option, but you seem to have misread it.)

+If you change a direct mode file and that file has not yet been transferred to some other repository, you've changed the only copy of the file, and so you cannot get back the old version.
+
+Other than that, git-annex always preserves old versions of direct mode files, the same as it preserves old versions of indirect mode files.
+
+To get back an old version of a file, use `git annex indirect` to get out of direct mode, use regular git commands to check out the version of the repository that has the file you need, and use `git annex get` to retrieve the file if it's not available in the local repository.

+Kalle is right (I seem to keep saying that, Kalle!)
+
+Following the walkthrough commands will get you a non-bare git repository on a removable drive, and you can run \"git annex sync\" in there periodically and see all the files in your repository on the removable drive. The webapp does not make that kind of repository though, and in the screencast I'm showing the normal behavior of the webapp.

+It might help if you pasted the actual error message that git-annex shows when you try to use this remote. Along with the part of .git/config that configures this remote.
+
+In general, git-annex does not are if you've reinstalled your OS, moved things around, etc. As long as the git remote's path points to a repository, git-annex will see it and be able to use it.

+You probably need to install libdbus dev stuff, and then the haskell dbus library. But it's certianly going to need code changes to make git-annex use dbus in any way on OSX, assuming there are even useful dbus events generated for network connections and drives being mounted on OSX.

+It was saying \"gcrypt\" when it meant \"git-remote-gcrypt\".
