+### Please describe the problem.
+Every file I add to a watched repository (by git-annex assistant) becomes symlinked, and sub-subsequently write protected.
+
+Sorry if I'm missing something obvious.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+1) Fresh install
+2) create directory, init repo and git-annex
+3) git annex assistant
+4) add a file
+5) ls -lsa to see the symlinked file
+6) trying to write to the file throws a write-protected error
+
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+git-annex version: 4.20130725-g8140f7c
+build flags: Assistant Webapp Pairing Testsuite S3 WebDAV Inotify DBus XMPP
+local repository version: 3
+default repository version: 3
+supported repository versions: 3 4
+upgrade supported from repository versions: 0 1 2
+
+Using the generic linux distribution with ./runshell on Ubuntu 13.04 (I saw this same behaviour from the ubuntu package, i.e. apt-get install git-annex)
+
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
+
+Here is the output from my ls -lsa
