+Hello,
+
+I have my music git annexed, direct mode. It's about 30k files of 429GB size. Some actions take considerable time (sync, add and of course transfer to/from other repos). During this time I don't hear music because of my player changes files. :-(
+
+When is it a problem when a files changes during git annex operations?
+
+git annex get gives a wrong checksum I guess and you need to re-transfer later.
+
+What about git annex add?
+
+Thx!
+Florian

+Posting this here because I am not sure if it is a bug or if I am missing something.
+
+I have a ~10 GB file in git-annex. I can't get it to go to S3 whatever I do.
+
+I added a S3 special remote:
+
+ git annex initremote s3-mybucket type=S3 chunk=1MiB keyid=ABCD1234 bucket=mybucket
+
+Then, I tried copying files to the remote. Small files worked, but big files don't:
+
+ $ git annex copy bigfile.tgz --to s3-mybucket
+ copy bigfile.tgz (gpg)
+ You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
+ user: "user"
+ 2048-bit RSA key, ID ABCD1234, created 2014-10-13 (main key ID ABCD1234)
+
+ (checking s3-mybucket...) (to s3-mybucket...)
+
+ Your proposed upload exceeds the maximum allowed size
+ failed
+ git-annex: copy: 1 failed
+
+I tried some stuff like this too:
+
+ git annex enableremote s3-mybucket chunk=100MiB
+ git annex enableremote s3-mybucket chunksize=100MiB
+
+It didn't work. Same result.
+
+ $ git annex version
+ git-annex version: 5.20140717

+ local repository version: 5
+ supported repository version: 5
+ upgrade supported from repository versions: 0 1 2 4
+
+The chunk size did seem to be set properly:
+
+ $ git checkout git-annex
+ $ cat remote.log
+ xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxx bucket=mybucket chunk=100MiB chunksize=100MiB cipher=....
+
+I'm on OSX 10.9.4 and I installed git-annex via homebrew.
+
+Any ideas?
