+### Please describe the problem.
+
+I have some paths containing swedish characters (åäö ÅÄÖ).
+Some paths also contains the character "@".
+I use git annex assistant in autostart mode on my Documents folder.
+
+I get the following errors in the log file:
+
+[[!format sh """

+I also notice a lot of zombie git processes in the ps list.

+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+
+Version: 5.20150406-gb2814bc
+
+Arch linux
+
+[daniel@wintermute Documents]$ uname -a

+
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.
+
+If I downgrade to a previous version ie. git-annex.linux.5.20150317 the described problem is gone.
+
+I tried to remove the character "@" from my paths, but it didn't help.
+
+Looking at the log file below, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with my swedish characters.
