If root wants to install git-annex system-wide they have plenty of good options, but the standalone tarball is not really one of them. Another reason to keep the git-annex-shell wrapper in ~/.ssh is because the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file that the assistant installs will refer to that wrapper. So it makes sense to keep all that related stuff together IMHO. """]]
