+Yes, you need to use git to either revert the repository to a previous version that had the file, or perhaps just revert the commit where the file was deleted. Either way, this requires letting git modify files in the repository, which is prevented by direct mode. So, if you can `git annex indirect` to switch to indirect mode, your git commands will work then.

+Thanks Joeyh, of course i guess checking stuff in git would then lose my timestamps as in the previous post. I recommend, as a feature request, to make file recovery a bit easier if possible. I'm not a git expert and definitely wont use command line stuff for doing this on the long run, unless some more intuitive commands like \"git annex list-old-versions\" or \"git annex show-deleted\" and then \"git annex restore \"filename\" version_no etc.
