+Hi Joey,
+
+I installed git-annex using the homebrew recipe from https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/git-annex.rb, OS X 10.11.6 (15G31)
+
+These are the dependencies reported by homebrew:
+
+Build: ghc ✔, cabal-install ✔, pkg-config ✔
+Required: gsasl ✔, libidn ✔, libmagic ✔, gnutls ✔, quvi ✔
+
+I've re-installed using \"brew install git-annex --HEAD\" to pull in your latest commit and I can confirm that everything works as expected and the /static/ resources load correctly.
+
+Thanks,
+Chris

+### Please describe the problem.
+I tried to use `git-annex-fsck --all --from remote` to check files on a special remote, but git-annex did a scan of the local repo instead. If I don't use the `--all` flag, it correctly checks the files on the remote (but just the files in the current checked out branch).
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+    mkdir repo
+    mkdir special
+    cd repo
+    git init
+    git annex init
+    git annex initremote special type=directory directory=../special encryption=none
+    touch testfile
+    git annex add testfile
+    git annex copy testfile --to special
+    chmod -R +w ../special/*
+    rm -r ../special/*
+    git annex fsck --all --from special   # should check special remote but checks local repo instead
+    git diff git-annex^ git-annex         # activity log shows that it checked special remote
+    git annex fsck --from special         # correctly checks special remote, identifies missing file
+
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+6.20161012 on Ubuntu 16.10
+
+### Have you had any luck using git-annex before?
+Yes, it's been very helpful for managing large files between laptops, desktops, external storage, and remote storage.

+## Wow, scary
+
+Dilyin's comment is scary.  It suggests bad things can happen, but is not very clear.
+
+Bloated history is one thing.  
+Obviously broken repo is bad but can be (slowly) recovered from remotes.  
+Subtly crippled history that you don't notice can be a major problem (especially once you have propagated it to all your remotes to \"recover from bloat\").
+
+## More common than it seems
+
+There's a case probably more common than people actually report: mistakenly doing `git add` instead of `git annex add` and realizing it only after a number of commits. Doing `git annex add` at that time will have the file duplicated (regular git and annex). 
+
+Extra wish: when doing `git annex add` of a file that is already present in git history, `git-annex` could notice and tell.
+
+## Simple solution?
+
+Can anyone elaborate on the scripts provided here, are they safe?  What can happen if improperly used or in corner cases?
+
+* \"files are replaced with symlinks and are in the index\" -> so what ?
+* \"Make sure that you don't have annex.largefiles settings that would prevent annexing the files.\" -> What would happen? Also `.gitattributes`.
+
+Thank you.
