+### Please describe the problem.
+
+After initializing a (indirect) repository on my Linux PC and git cloning it on a FAT32 formatted USB drive (direct mode), git annex sync worked fine.
+After using it on a Windows system (git annex watch), I took it back to the Linux machine. Now doing git annex sync on the USB drive repository lead to:
+
+    (usb drive) $ git annex sync
+    commit  ok
+
+      There are no commits yet in the currently checked out branch, so cannot merge any remote changes into it.
+    failed
+    pull PC 
+    ....
+    merge: refs/remotes/PC/annex/direct/master - not something we can merge
+    merge: refs/remotes/PC/synced/master - not something we can merge
+    failed
+    (merging origin/git-annex into git-annex...)
+    git-annex: sync: 2 failed
+    $ git fsck
+    Checking object directories: 100% (256/256), done.
+    $ git annex fsck
+    fsck blah.pdf (checksum...) ok
+    fsck foo.pdf (checksum...) ok
+    fsck bar.pdf (checksum...) ok
+    ...
+    (recording state in git...)
+
+Note that for some reason it mentions the ref refs/remotes/PC/annex/direct/master - which doesn't exist, because the Linux PC repo is in indirect mode.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+1. git init / git annex init on a ext* drive under Linux
+2. git sync it to a FAT32-formatted (USB) drive
+3. git annex init on the USB drive
+4. add each others as remote
+5. git sync each other - works fine
+6. Change into a Windows system
+7. git annex watch inside the git annex repository under Windows
+8. add some files, they are committed (says daemon.log)
+9. Ctrl+C git annex watch, unmount drive...
+10. Change back to a Linux system
+11. git annex sync from the annex repository on USB
+

+### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
+
+Used it under only-linux before. I especially like the location tracking.
+
+
+Also tried using special remotes (mega.nz) with encryption - although I was very confused at first that you need the private key for the hybrid approach. After some reading I think I need sharedpubkey? (I just wanna use it for myself, but don't wanna insert the smartcard where my private key is stored every time for sending the files to the remote).
