Upgrading yesod then git-annex removes the problem I was seeing.  Thanks for your help with that.  Here is a `git-check-attr` session:

    backups $ git check-attr --stdin annex.backend annex.numcopies --
    athena-etc.tar.gz
    athena-etc.tar.gz: annex.backend: unspecified
    athena-etc.tar.gz: annex.numcopies: 2
    athena-mail.gz
    athena-mail.gz: annex.backend: unspecified
    athena-mail.gz: annex.numcopies: 2
    athena-web.tar.gz
