+this is still really confusing. having to create the repo by hand is a really confusing step - i have setup an external drive to have my files with me as i move around, having to go through hoops to find them in a bare repository seems contrary to the spirit of \"future proofing\" inherent to git annex.
+
+the solution i found was to `git init` the repo on the removable drive before adding it through the webapp. i hope this can eventually be fixed, as it led to confusion among many other users (e.g. [[forum/Accessing_files_in_bare_repository/]], [[bugs/Adding a repository as a \"remote server\" creates a bare repository next to the existing one/]], [[forum/remote server client repositories are bare!?/]] and so on). --[[anarcat]]

+### Please describe the problem.
+
+Somewhere on the forums you advised that in order to revert to an old
+version of a file in a direct-mode annex, one should briefly switch to
+indirect mode and check out an earlier revision.
+
+This won’t work though if the direct-mode repo is on a VFAT
+file-system, which does not support indirect mode.
+
+If I didn’t overlook an alternative way, would it make sense to expose
+this functionality in «git annex get $file»? Like «git annex get $file
+--from $repo/$revision»?
+
+Specifying revisions to get from might also be convenient for
+alternative use-cases, I suppose.
+
+Best regards,
+T.

+### Please describe the problem.
+
+I’m not sure whether this is a bug or a technical limitation, but here
+you go: In direct mode, if a file is locally changed but unsynced,
+«git annex whereis» and «git annex list» behave as if the file were
+still unchanged. Any changes would only show after «git annex sync» or
+«git annex add» (altough I’m not sure what the latter does if a file
+is already annexed).
+
+Syncing prior to «whereis» is not viable since I might not want to
+proliferate the changes to other remotes. Would it be reasonable making
+sure that «whereis» considers uncommitted local changes?
+
+If doing so is too expensive to do implicitly, it would be useful
+having an explicit means of seeing local changes in direct mode
+repositories. Is «git annex add» the intended way of doing so?
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+
+1. Clone A to B.
+2. Get file $f from A to B.
+3. Switch B to direct mode.
+4. Edit file $f.
+5. «git annex list» reports that $f is on both A and B.

+so i am wondering how better to remember the state of a repository.
+
+the use case is this: i have this part of my music collection which i consider to be my "favorites". i would like to have only those on an external hard drive, but also on my portable music player. so i cloned my main music collection to the external hard drive and did `git annex get` on the files i wanted there. now i want to replicate that to the music player - how would i go around doing that? if i clone that repo again, it will all have empty symlinks and i would have to reproduce the same process all over again, which i can script, but it seems a little quirky...

+I'm still learning git-annex myself, but I think you can make a new branch 'favorites'. Sort out your favorite music and make a checkout on your external HDD and music player. In the walkthrough you can see how that works.

+I suppose that makes sense. Is it more affordable to just retrieve the most recent filename? That would seem to be enough for many practical purposes. But I guess this would still possibly have to go through many revisions. I wonder if such a restricted search can be done by git though. Maybe using non-porcelain commands.

+Auto-repair takes up a lot of computing power, greatly slowing down the machine. It also still happens very often here, several times a month on different hardware, leading it to become an annoyance (and it would be easier and faster to perform manual repairs if that should be required).
+
+Therefore I'd like a setting that makes the assistant not attempt to repair on its own. Either not do anything at all, or display a message about it instead.

+Hey, just tried git-annex on windows. Love the idea, but the windows port still seems to be a work in progress. I thought I'd check in here and see if i could help. Maybe this is a start:

+You can setup any executable file as a windows service using Sc.exe included in the Windows Resource Kit.
+https://support.microsoft.com/kb/251192?SmcNavTabIndex=1
+Its pretty easy and straightforward
+
+Another option would be installing the service using nsis, here is one possible plugin that should do the trick: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/NSIS_Simple_Service_Plugin

+I would like to have way, ideally a per-repo-cloud setting which syncs around automatically, to not have `git annex sync` autocommit staged additions.
+
+I often have quite complex additions with a mix of `git add` and `git annex add` in various stages of completion; running `git annex sync` regularly to see what state the other repos are in should not autocommit if possible.
