+### Please describe the problem.
+Incremental fsck keeps information about which time a file was last fsck-ed by setting mtime of the file's parent directory in `.git/annex/objects/`. When we are doing incremental fsck from a remote, files that are not available locally are never marked as checked (since said directory does not exist), so they are checked at every invocation of `git annex fsck --more`.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+Create a git-annex repository with some random content. Then add any remote, copy files there, remove them locally and run an incremental fsck from the remote. Interrupt it and run again with `--more`. It will check again all the files, including those that have already been checked.
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+Debian official package, 5.20141125, on Debian sid (more or less up-to-date).
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
