+
+Fun one: I have a backup repository created with the assistant. For some reason it's a bare repository, not sure why. It makes my hard drive scream with pain.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+When I tried `git annex copy --to backup`, I saw this:

+
+Then this stopped and my hard drive started scratching. It makes this horrible screeching sound because it's quite old, hence the bug title.
+
+It seems that this debug message tries to list all the objects in the filesystem, which in this case is quite large:
+
+[[!format haskell """
+fixBadBare :: Annex ()
+fixBadBare = whenM checkBadBare $ do
+        ks <- getKeysPresent
+        liftIO $ debugM "Init" $ unwords

+                , show (length ks)
+                , "objects; fixing"
+                ]
+"""]]
+
+Maybe this could be skipped? It takes forever (7 minutes) to compute that length (21353 objects)...
