+### Please describe the problem.
+Tried adding a removable drive repository through git-annex assistant on Mac, asked to encrypt it, got Internal server error with explanation: unable to determine gcrypt-id of remote
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+current (today's) version of git-annex build for Mountain Lion installed
+app launched
+default annex initialized, a couple file added
+a removable 2GB USB drive (ExFAT) mounted in OS
+click Add another repository
+choose removable drive
+choose to encrypt
+a window explaining the need to wait for entropy shows
+then we get the Internal server error: unable to determine gcrypt-id of remote
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+git-annex version 4.20130922-g7dc188a
+Mac OS X 10.8.5
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
+
+looking at transcript below, it appears the root cause is the lack of initial git/gcrypt configuration. perhaps this needs to be caught/addressed somehow
