@@ -7,7 +7,7 @@ The assistant merges the synced/git-annex branch whenever it detects (via
inotify) that a change has been made to that git ref.
I can't reproduce a problem from the information you've given. With
-foo -- bar -- quux, and assistants running on foo and quux, any file
+`foo -> bar <- quux`, and assistants running on foo and quux, any file
written to foo more or less immediately syncs to quux, and the git-annex
branch is merged.

+Note that I'm assuming that bar is a remote of both foo and of quux.
+That seems like a reasonable reading of what you described, and is a
+reasonable configuration, but perhaps you were trying to describe some
+other configuration.
+
+In [[forum/mesh_configurations]] you seem to instead
+describe a chain of remotes, where bar is a remote of foo, and quux is a
+remote of bar: `foo -> bar -> quux`. In this configuration, running the assistant on
+foo and quux, but not on bar, would not result in changes made on quux
+ever getting to foo, because quux has no way to push objects to bar. So, I
+don't think that's the configuration you meant either. But lack of clarity
+in bug report makes it hard to know.
