+This is confusing:
+
+"Next we come to the archive repositories.The archive repositories coordinate together, so that each file is archived in only one place. **When you move files into a folder named "archive"**, they'll be moved to an archive repository, and removed from all your client repositories. This is handy if you have old files you don't need anymore, but want to keep archived for later. When you copy or move a file out of an "archive" folder, it'll be retrieved from the archive repository."
+
+"The small archive repositories are like other archive repositories, but smaller. While archive repositories normally accumulate every file they can, small archive repositories only accumulate files **once you put them in an "archive" directory.**"
+
+Based upon those descriptions, I don't know what the difference is.

+Dropbox handles permissions, e.g. if I \"chmod -x\" a file on one system, it does the same to my other systems. It would be a bit of a step backward if git-annex can't do this. :/ Just my two cents.

+I should have looked at that error message more closely. The gcryptsetup command will print a permission denied if the repository it's being run in already has a annex.uuid or already has a gcrypt id. Probably that latter needs to be relaxed for enableremote to work.

+While I've fixed this bug, in my testing the bug only caused git-annex to fall back to accessing the remote repository using rsync, rather than using git-annex-shell to talk to it, and so `git annex get --from encryptedrepo` was able to retrieve files that were stored in that remote despite the bug. That may have failed for you for some other reason.
+
+You can set git.encryptedrepo.annex-gcrypt to to \"true\" to make it use the degraded rsync mode, or to \"shell\" to make it use git-annex-shell. Setting it to shell should be all that you need to do to recover from (or indeed, work around this bug).

+What is the safest way to cancel a `git annex add` before the first commit?
+
+Say I first added a directory with a lot of small files to the annex and then (while watching the endless list of checksum operations) decide I should actually put them in a tar file and annex that instead.
+
+The problem seems to be that `git annex add` immediately replaces the files with symlinks instead of waiting for a commit, so I can't just `git reset largedir/; tar cvfz largedir.tgz largedir/; git annex add largedir.tgz`.

+Sorry, I'm confused. I set up a Full Backup repo on a second hard drive, but the files are visible in its directory just like in my Client repos' directories. Are the files not supposed to be visible? Is something wrong?

+Currently if you go to the edit page for the repository, it shows some information about it, including its type and often its location, at the bottom of the page.
+
+I tend to feel that putting anything else in the repo list would result in it being too cluttered.

+I understand. Well, here's what I'm looking at right now. :)
+
+[[http://alphapapa.net/outbox/view.png]]
+
+I just think it would be very useful to say \"Client\" or \"Transfer\" or \"Full Backup\" next to each one, and there's often plenty of room, depending on the size of the window. Especially when one's trying to wrap one's head around git-annex, being reminded what each repo is for would help a lot. Otherwise you basically have to put it in the name or description yourself...so why not just go ahead and show it? :)
+
+Another option might be to have an icon for each type.
