+What encoding is used for the stdin/stdout streams used to communicate with remotes?

+I have a question about remotes behavior on external drives.
+
+Say I have two machines A and B each with a git annex repository at `~/repo`, and an external drive C with the same repository at `/repo`.
+
+I can add C remotes for A and B at, for example, `/media/hdd/repo`, but I'm not certain how it works for C.
+
+Do I stick C into A and add a remote A at path `~/repo`, then stick C into B and add a remote B with the same path `~/repo`? Does git annex handle this sanely?

+I had two repositories, on different machines, created with the assistant, so they were both direct mode.
+
+After pairing each with the other, so that files were merrily flowing back and forth, I happened to do the following:
+ * on machine A, in the dashboard
+ * click on the 'actions' emnu for the repository on machine B
+ * select 'disable'
+
+Result: all references to the repo on machine B have disappeared from the assistant in machine A.
+
+On machine B, I still have the pairing with machine A, and selecting the 'sync now' action seems to be working.
+
+The thing I am curious about is the behaviour on machine A - why is it that I cannot find any reference to it any more in the assistant, so that I can re-enable it?

+Syncing seems to work only in one direction.
+
+If I go to machine B and:
+ * change a file
+ * select 'sync now' from the 'actions' menu for machine A
+the webapp says it worked.
+
+But if I login to machine A and inspect the file I expect to have changed, it is 'not available'.
+
+If I run 'git annex get 'baz.txt' on machine A it complains and asks me to make available the reposiotry on machine B.
