+### Please describe the problem.
+
+This is coming from [[main repo not available on downloads.kitenet.net]], probably was the original issue, but since I already create a duplicate there, I won't assume anything (sorry about that!).
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+I am not sure. I know that I had an external drive with a clone of *some* repo related to `downloads.kitenet.net`. Doing a `git annex get` wouldn't work:
+
+<pre>
+anarcat@marcos:current$ cd /media/anarcat/VHS/downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/linux/current/
+anarcat@marcos:current$ git annex get git-annex-standalone-amd64.tar.gz
+get git-annex-standalone-amd64.tar.gz (not available)
+  Try making some of these repositories available:
+        840760dc-08f0-11e2-8c61-576b7e66acfd -- main repo
+        d7fa24ad-d104-4064-ad10-1078a4436e72 -- joey@elephant:~/lib/downloads
+failed
+git-annex: get: 1 failed
+anarcat@marcos:current$ git remote -v
+origin  git://git.kitenet.net/downloads.git (fetch)
+origin  git://git.kitenet.net/downloads.git (push)
+</pre>
+
+it turns out i somehow managed to checkout from `git://git.kitenet.net/downloads.git`. I don't know where I got this URL from, may it was back when I created that other bug report and the git URL wasn't explicitely mentionned on http://downloads.kitenet.net/ It turns out that there's a `git-annex` branch there that diverged from the "real" one, and is lacking tracking information. changing the remote here fixed the problem:
+
+<pre>
+anarcat@marcos:current$ git remote set-url origin http://downloads.kitenet.net/.git/
+anarcat@marcos:current$ git remote update
+Récupération de origin
+Depuis http://downloads.kitenet.net/
+ + e9febdc...1a80292 git-annex  -> origin/git-annex  (mise à jour forcée)

+Sorry for the noise in that other bug report! I really thought it was the same issue .... --[[anarcat]]
