You only need to pick a place for your +special remote to store the data. Presumably somewhere under `.git` +or under `.git/annex`. (The protocol's GETGITDIR can be used to +get the path to `.git`.) + +And you need to pick a filename that won't be used by something else. + +You can use the protocol's GETUUID to get the uuid of special remote, +and using that in the path to the data pretty well guarantees nothing +else is going to use that filename. +"""]] |
