-### Please describe the problem.
-
-I use both the assistant and the command line. Unfortunately I often end up
-in a state where I cannot do a "git annex sync" (it fails as described below)
-and I have to use the assistant to synchronize things to make the sync work. I
-would like to know how to do the same thing using only the command line.
-
-### What steps will reproduce the problem?
-
-This problem involves two repos: a local, indirect mode, manual group, repo, and
-a ssh remote archive group bare repo (with full git annex available
-remotely). The local repo is "top" and the remote one is "mini_archive".
-
-I start with the assistant not running, and the two repos in sync. Note that the
-remote server cannot directly contact the local repo.

- pull mini_archive

-
-remote:
-
- schmitta@mini ~/a/archive> git annex sync
- commit

-
-I then add a file locally and try to sync, getting a problem on mini_archive:
-
- schmitta@top ~/D/annex (master)> git annex add videos/Minecraft/Icy\ and\ FlowerChild\ Play\ -\ Better\ Than\ Wolves\ 3-qg6LVTcDl4Y.mp4

-
-From this state, the only way to resolve things is to launch the web app. It
-tells me "synced with mini_archive" (and it starts uploading the new file). Then
-on the server there is something to merge. (I haven't waited for the file to
-finish uploading in this case.)
-
- schmitta@mini ~/a/archive> git annex merge
- merge git-annex (merging refs/synced/1cdfb490-0660-41fb-b7ce-74b89abb9aac/git-annex into git-annex...)
- ok
- schmitta@mini ~/a/archive> git annex sync
- commit
- ok
-
-and I can then sync on the local repo:
-
- schmitta@top ~/D/annex (master) [1]> git annex sync
- commit
- ok
- pull mini_archive
- From ssh://git-annex-**.**.**.**-schmitta_annex.2Farchive/~/annex/archive
- 8f39d4c..cb7f6c3 git-annex -> mini_archive/git-annex
- ok
-
-Note that I need to do the remote merge for things to work. After the file has
-finished uploading, I get back in a conflict:
-
- schmitta@top ~/D/annex (master)> git annex sync
- commit
- ok
- pull mini_archive
- ok
- push mini_archive
- Total 0 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)

- failed
- git-annex: sync: 1 failed
-
-If I disable and re-enable the sync on the server (forcing a sync), I still have
-a conflict locally:
-
- schmitta@top ~/D/annex (master) [1]> git annex sync
- commit
- ok
- pull mini_archive

-> So, receive.denyNonFastforwards was the problem. It turns out that
-> `git init --bare --shared` sets that by default, and the webapp
-> uses that to create repositories on ssh server. I have made the webapp
-> unset receive.denyNonFastforwards when setting up such a repository.
->
-> Also added something to the assistant release notes about this
-> to handle existing repositories. [[done]] --[[Joey]]
