After transfer, the file was turned into a symlink. + +### What steps will reproduce the problem? + +* Create an annex and a remote ssh server. +* [Simulate a corrupted drive](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1361518/how-can-i-simulate-a-failed-disk-during-testing) for the remote, creating an input output error. +* Wait until the annex starts syncing on the desktop machine. If there were no further unidentified causes on my side, the assistant will start transfers that revert files to symlinks. + +### What version of git-annex are you using?
