 Now the hard bit. You have to think up a secret phrase, and type it in,

+Want to share all the files in your repository with a friend?
+
+Let's suppose you use Google Mail, and so does your friend, and you
+sometimes also chat in Google Talk. The git-annex assistant will
+use your Google account to share with your friend. (This actually
+works with any Jabber account you use, not just Google Talk.)
+
+Start by opening up your git annex dashboard.
+
+[[!img addrepository.png alt="Add another repository button"]]
+
+`*click*`
+
+[[!img pairing.png alt="Share with a friend"]]
+
+`*click*`
+
+[[!img xmpp.png alt="Configuring Jabber account"]]
+
+Fill that out, and git-annex will be able to show you a list of your
+friends.
+
+[[!img buddylist.png alt="Buddy list"]]
+
+This list will refresh as friends log on and off, so you can
+leave it open in a tab until a friend is available to start pairing.
+
+(If your friend is not using git-annex yet, now's a great time to spread
+the word!)
+
+Once you click on "Start Pairing", your friend will see this pop up
+on their git annex dashboard.
+
+[[!img xmppalert.png alt="Pair request"]]
+
+Once your friend clicks on that, your repositories will be paired.
+
+### But, wait, there's one more step...
+
+Despite the repositories being paired now, you and your friend can't yet
+quite share files. You'll start to see your friend's files show up in your
+git-annex folder, but you won't be able to open them yet.
+
+What you need to do now is set up a repository out there in the cloud,
+that both you and your friend can access. This will be used to transfer
+files between the two of you.
+
+At the end of the pairing process, a number of cloud providers are
+suggested, and the git-annex assistant makes it easy to configure one of
+them. Once you or your friend sets it up, it'll show up in the other
+one's list of repositories:
+
+[[!img repolist.png alt="Repository list"]]
+
+The final step is to share the login information for the cloud repository
+with your friend, so they can enable it too.
+
+With that complete, you'll be able to open your friend's files!
