Probably the repository was either initialized by an old version of git-annex, or perhaps init was run on the NFS server, or perhaps the repository was initted elsewhere and moved into place. I don't want to complicate locking with fallbacks involving changing configuration. ENOLCK can be raised for other reasons, so it's not necessarily an indication of a NFS system anyway. """]]
