+_git annex initremote_ without a complete command set still adds an entry to the uuid.log etc... and thus clutters up the state of the annex. I would not have expected this behaviour as a user.
+
+_initremote_ should fail and not do anything if the commands that it has been given are incomplete or incorrect. I was initialising a few rsync repos and noticed that i ended up having mutiple rsync remotes with the same name but different uuid's. I know its hard if not impossible to remove these uuid's so I have just marked them as "dead" in my live annexes.

+Here's a transcript of the problem
