+You cannot use a UUID like that. How is git-anndx supposed to know where
+that UUID is, or how to access it?
+
+You do not use git-annex initremote with normal git remotes, only special
+remotes.
+
+Set up a git remote, and use `git-annex get --from` with that.
+
+	git remote add ssh://someplace/path/to/repo
+
+git-annex will then figure out that that git remote is the one with that
+UUID, and be able to use it.
+
+Names of git remotes are completely separate from **descriptions** of
+git-annex repositories, which is what git-annex info displays.
+
+AFAIK, all the documentation is clear about the several things that you
+seem to have gotten confused about. Pointers to any places in
+the documentation that are confusing about these matters are appreciated..
