+### Please describe the problem.
+The webapp doesn't start.  There is no feedback as to what is wrong when starting the OS X app.  Makes for a very confusing behaviour.
+
+When starting git-annex-webapp directly, it says:
+git-annex: no git repository in /Users/lhunath/annex
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+Create a ~/annex that is not a git repo.
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+git-annex version: 5.20140517-g0aed6d9
