I did git checkout -- on all the files, switched them over, and it's a different set of broken things now! +* It's actually easy enough to fix... in fact, I did fix it! I just did a fresh clone of the git repository and a git annex get and everything is fine now. However, it seemed like possibly a bug that might hit other people, hence my reporting it. + +### What version of git-annex are you using?
