+I’ve noticed something odd when inspecting the history of the
+git-annex branch today. Apparently, the branch had some merge
+conflicts during sync that involved two alternative location tracking
+entries that both were for one and the same remote. Both entries only
+differed in their timestamps, and the union merge kept both, so that I
+now have .log files in the annex branch that contain duplicate parts
+like this.

+The UUID here is my local repository.

+The duplication also occurred in the uuid.log:

+
+Is this something to be concerned about? The situation somehow arose
+in relation to unannexing a bunch of files and rebasing the master
+branch.
