+ Opens a web app, that allows easy setup of a git-annex repository,
and control of the git-annex assistant.
+ By default, the webapp can only be accessed from localhost, and running
+ it opens a browser window.
+
+ With the --listen= option, the webapp can be made to listen for
+ connections on the specified address. This disables running a
+ local web browser, and outputs the url you can use to open the webapp
+ from a remote computer.
+ Note that this does not yet use HTTPS for security, so use with caution!
