### Please describe the problem. I run a script (via cron) to sync my various git-annex repositories. Recently, I noticed the following error message (which I'd not seen before): bash: git-annex-shell: command not found I can't say for certain when it first appeared, but I first noticed it after recently upgrading to git-annex 6.20170519. ### What steps will reproduce the problem? git annex sync -J5 (or using any other 'jobs' option via -Jx or --jobs=x, including setting 'jobs' to '1') ### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system? 6.20170519 on MacOS Sierra (installed via homebrew) ### Please provide any additional information below. git annex sync (without a 'jobs' option) does not produce the error message. In the sample transcripts below, RAID10 is a local drive. unraid, manuel & drobo are all accessed via ssh. [[!format sh """ # If you can, paste a complete transcript of the problem occurring here. # If the problem is with the git-annex assistant, paste in .git/annex/daemon.log [tom:~/annex/dl] git annex sync -J1 On branch master nothing to commit, working tree clean commit ok bash: git-annex-shell: command not found pull RAID10 ok pull unraid ok pull manuel ok pull drobo ok [tom:~/annex/dl] git annex sync commit On branch master nothing to commit, working tree clean ok pull RAID10 ok pull unraid ok pull manuel ok pull drobo ok # End of transcript or log. """]] ### 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've used git-annex for well over a year, syncing multiple repositories, without a problem. I don't know how I ever got along without it! :-) > [[fixed|done]] --[[Joey]]
