-### Please describe the problem.
-Using git-annex from Debian (4.20130709), I attempted to add a 410M file named `Expressionlessm.tar`. It acted like it succeeded, but the link it created was broken. Other files would add correctly.
-
-### What steps will reproduce the problem?
-I can reliably cause the file to be removed and replaced with a dangling symlink by doing `git annex add Expressionlessm.tar`. The "addition" completes much faster than normal. Using the old version of git-annex that Ubuntu provides (3.20131112ubuntu4), the file adds correctly in at least one place it was having issues.
-
-### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
-I'm using the version of git-annex from Debian Sid on Ubuntu 13.04 (perhaps that's my issue?)
-
-### Please provide any additional information below.

-> [[done]]; this bug is now prevented on several levels.
->
-> BTW, the earlier behavior where it didn't even make a valid .git/annex/objects/
-> symlink is also explained by this bug I've fixed. It pulled a truncated
-> link out of the tarball, and used that.
