+### Please describe the problem.
+
+Usecase (you might suggest a better way) is to 'annex' the content of files (via addurl) without actually committing symlinks to git (git-annex branch obviously should progress forward). So the sequence is akin 'annex addurl', 'annex drop' both ran with annex.alwayscommit=false . The issue is that it seems that if addurl is --batched, then symlink is not 'git add'ed until batched process finishes, and thus subsequent to 'addurl' 'drop' does nothing, leaving key behind not dropped.
+
+Related recent TODO wishlist is [[http://git-annex.branchable.com/todo/drop_--batch/]]
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+FWIW below is a somewhat noisy output from datalad's unittest (which addurl into the archive's content, so custom special remote is involved). At the end of the run content is not dropped, symlink is not dangling.
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+originally was a version from March but tried also with fresh 6.20160425+gitgffe2ea2-1~ndall+1

+With upgrade to 6.20160114+gitg6be9ee0-1~ndall+1 our (datalad) tests started to fail since apparently format of whereis --json has changed.

+### Please describe the problem.
+
+Currently if I using standalone annex builds mere 'annex init' immediately rushes to generate .ssh/git-annex-{shell,wrapper} helpers. I would really prefer to keep ~/.ssh untouched by any magic from the tools which presumably unrelated to ssh. Moreover it leads to failures such as
+
+/usr/lib/git-annex.linux/runshell: 67: /usr/lib/git-annex.linux/runshell: cannot create /.ssh/git-annex-wrapper: Directory nonexistent
+
+happen if HOME was overridden (e.g. for testing etc) and I have no intent to use annex as an assistant etc.
+
+Originally described in http://git-annex.branchable.com/devblog/day_155__missing_bits/ as a solution to overcome problems with assistant's server operation from standalone builds. Why those couldn't be installed alongside with git-annex wrapper? (actually there is also git-annex-shell at least in the Debian standalone packages)

+Wish: `git annex get [files] -jN` should run up to N downloads of files
+concurrently.
+
+This can already be done by just starting up N separate git-annex
+processes all trying to get the same files. They'll coordinate themselves
+to avoid downloading the same file twice.
+
+But, the output of concurrent git annex get's in a single teminal is a
+mess.
+
+It would be nice to have something similar to docker's output when fetching
+layers of an image. Something like:
+
+ get foo1 ok
+ get foo2 ok
+ get foo3 -> 5% 100 KiB/s
+ get foo4 -> 3% 90 KiB/s
+ get foo5 -> 20% 1 MiB/s
+
+Where the bottom N lines are progress displays for the downloads that are
+currently in progress. When a download finishes, it can scroll up the
+screen with "ok".
+
+ get foo1 ok
+ get foo2 ok
+ get foo5 ok
+ get foo3 -> 5% 100 KiB/s
+ get foo4 -> 3% 90 KiB/s
+ get foo6 -> 0% 110 Kib/S
+
+This display could perhaps be generalized for other concurrent actions.
+For example, drop:
+
+ drop foo1 ok
+ drop foo2 failed
+ Not enough copies ...
+ drop foo3 -> (checking r1...)
+ drop foo4 -> (checking r2...)
+
+But, do get first.
+
+Pain points:
+
+1. Currently, git-annex lets tools like rsync and wget display their own
+ progress. This makes sense for the single-file at a time get, because
+ rsync can display better output than just a percentage. (This is especially
+ the case with aria2c for torrents, which displays seeder/leecher info in
+ addition to percentage.)
+
+ But in multi-get mode, the progress display would be simplified. git-annex
+ can already get percent done information, either as reported by individiual
+ backends, or by falling back to polling the file as it's downloaded.
+
+2. The mechanics of updating the screen for a multi-line progress output
+ require some terminal handling code. Using eg, curses, in a mode that
+ doesn't take over the whole screen display, but just moves the cursor
+ up to the line for the progress that needs updating and redraws that
+ line. Doing this portably is probably going to be a pain, especially
+ I have no idea if it can be done on Windows.
+
+ An alternative would be a display more like apt uses for concurrent
+ downloads, all on one line:
+
+ get foo1 ok
+ get foo2 ok
+ get [foo3 -> 5% 100 KiB/s] [foo4 -> 3% 90 KiB/s] [foo5 -> 20% 1 MiB/s]
+
+ The problem with that is it has to avoid scrolling off the right
+ side, so it probably has to truncate the line. Since filenames
+ are often longer than "fooN", it probably has to elipsise the filename.
+ This approach is just not as flexible or nice in general.
+
