+If a local repo is cloned with "git clone orig/.git new", then git-annex in
+new cannot see origin.
+
+the .git/config has "url=/.../orig/.git". Apparently git is ok with that
+weird construction; probably it treats it as a bare git repo. But git-annex
+just sees a directory w/o a .git subdir, and gives up.
