+> You can use --clean-duplicates unless your goal is for some reason to add the duplicate files to your repository a second time.
+
+My use case is that I clone an existing remote on a PC where there are already some of the annexed files (+ others).
+
+My workflow would be:
+
+* clone git-annex server:~/Documents.git
+* git annex init \"other pc\"
+* git annex import --skip-new (or --only-duplicates) ~/Dump/*
+
+~/Dump contains many other files in addition to those found in the Documents repository.
+
+In this case --clean-duplicate would not be the correct solution.
