+Before 2407170eaf78d9aa38d73d1af68c20da9882779b, git-annex sync in a subdir
+had the same problem. That made it always run from the top of the work
+tree, which its code actually assumes is the case.

+The assistant, however, does not do that, and it's useful in general to
+only run it in a subdir.
