Additionally, I’ve occasionally noticed that certain files get «stuck» after being added to the objects store, i. e., they will never be committed by the assistant and have to be staged manually; it appears there is a correlation between files where the logger errors out and files getting stuck. + +I can reproduce this using the en-dash (U+2013). + +### What steps will reproduce the problem? +1. Create a file named «Behold – the majestic en-dash» in a repository where the assistant is running. +2. Observe file has not been added by the assistant and daemon.log contains no message pertaining to new file. +3. Restart assistant. +4. Observe in daemon.log that the logger has errored out with «hPutChar: invalid argument» and gives the Unicode replacement character thrice for each en-dash. +5. Observe that file is added to object store, but the symlink is not staged or committed by the assistant. + +### What version of git-annex are you using?
