+### Please describe the problem.
+Using the windows port of git annex, I'm unable to directly access files that are retrieved from a remote ssh repository. Instead, the file contains a reference to ../.git/annex/objects....
+
+**Update** This appears to be a problem with remote bare repositories only. I was able to get from a remote regular git repository without the stand-in symlinks. The stand-in symlink file gets replaced with the real content on "get" using a non-base repository.

+Your transcript shows `git annex get` apparently receiving the file. I don't see how that could possibly have worked if git-annex-shell were not in the path on the server, since that is the command it runs to send the file. Also, `git annex copy` is earlier used to send the file to origin, which again should not work if git-annex-shell was not in the path. I think this whole git-annex-shell not in path thing is a red herring.
+
+What actually appears to be going on is this:
+
+1. You create a new empty repository. Since this is Windows, it's forced into direct mode.
+2. You manually merge origin/synced/master into this repository. Bypassing `git annex sync` in this way means that direct mode mappings are not updated for the files contained in that branch.
+3. You run `git annex get` on a file from that branch. The file is retrieved. Since no direct mode mapping exists for the object it just retrieved, it stashes it in .git/annex/objects and the file is left with the fake symlink git uses on windows.
+
+The manual merge in step 2 is the cause of the problem. The [[direct_mode]] documentation advises against using git commands that update the repository tree because it can lead to this kind of problem (as well as more serious data loss).
+
+Of course, you had no choice but to merge from origin/synced/master, because git annex sync didn't push to origin/master, so simply cloning the bare repository wouldn't work. However, I did fix that a few days ago.
+
+I see this as more evidence of there needing to be a [[todo/direct_mode_guard]] to block users from running unsafe git commands in direct mode repositories. This bug probably can be closed, assuming I correctly understand what happened.
