+Be that as it may, the whole reason git-annex exists is to work around fundamental limitations of git!
+
+The issue is that I don't want to treat a folder which I happen to have applied version control to differently than a folder which happens not to be version controlled (aside from committing to the version-controlled folder, of course!). Both folders are in my git annex; I shouldn't have to worry about it. (My whole \"documents\" folder is in git annex, and it contains many small git repositories.)
+
+I guess I could write a script to unbundle and re-bundle on command. In fact, one could imagine integrating these scripts into git annex somehow.
+
+Is that something you'd consider taking upstream?

+Well, git-annex is all about working around *1* limitation of git. There are several other limitations that it would be nice to have tools to deal with better, including storing metadata, and this one. I can't take everything on.
+
+I mostly worry about these limitations in the context of naive users using the git-annex assistant for file sync. I have heard that some people put their git repositories in dropbox.
+
+You don't sound at all naive, so I'll suggest another tool I wrote, mr <http://joeyh.name/code/mr>. With mr you can run a single command and operate on all repositories at or under a directory.

+This sounds like one or more bugs that I should address, but I'm having trouble understanding exactly what you did, from your description, at the level of detail I need to replicate a problem.
+
+Do you still have a copy of the corrupted repository? Or any error messages to show me?
+
+It sounds like at least one problem might have been this bug: [[bugs/Unable_to_switch_back_to_direct_mode]]
+At least that is fixed in current git.

+Well, in your defense it's documented there because I can't think of a better place to put it. Maybe you looked in some other places first before finding it there, and I should add a pointer to those places?
+
+(For the curious, the magic run is just: git annex unused --from remote)

+From what you've described, the box.com special remote is the only remote you have connecting your two computers.
+
+But special remotes are only used to transfer the contents of files. They do not have the content of the git repository.
+
+You need to set up a git remote that both computers can access. Or you can use the webapp to set up XMPP to sync between the computers directly. If you start the webapp, it will detect you're missing a git remote, and suggest setting up XMPP. [[/assistant/xmppnudge.png]]
