+### Please describe the problem.
+I found one of my repos damaged after letting the webapp sync with it for a while. The filesystem inodes were exhausted and all the refs pointed to objects that do not exist.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+I expect this issue to be reproduced by syncing to a filesystem without enough free inodes to hold the incoming files.
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+This repo is using git-annex 6.20160229-g37a89cc
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.

+### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
+
+I'm running into a few issues but I intend to work through them.
