+spwhitton, your analysis is correct -- except this problem was finessed in git-annex version 4.20130621. Now, when using direct mode, it knows that `old/song.mp3` is also `music/song.mp3`, and so it only drops it if the preferred content expression allows dropping both files.

+Still doesn't work in indirect mode, and I think not likely to in the forseeable future. See [[bugs/Handling_of_files_inside_and_outside_archive_directory_at_the_same_time]]
