I have some git repositories I don't edit often that I'd like to back up. I'd like to add these to my git annex, so I don't have to resort to a time-consuming hack (such as setting up a proper submodule, or bundling the repositories).
But when I try to add a .git directory to git annex, I get a bunch of errors of the form
git-annex: user error (xargs ["-0","git","--git-dir=/tmp/tmp.LhGN3nT9uM/annex/.git","--work-tree=/tmp/tmp.LhGN3nT9uM/annex","add","--"] exited 123)
failed
git-annex: add: 1 failed
add repo/.git/hooks/pre-push.sample ok
(Recording state in git...)
error: Invalid path 'repo/.git/hooks/pre-push.sample'
error: unable to add repo/.git/hooks/pre-push.sample to index
fatal: adding files failed
STR:
$ mkdir annex
$ cd annex
annex$ git init
annex$ git annex init
annex$ cd ..
$ mkdir repo
$ cd repo
repo$ git init
repo$ cd ..
$ mv repo annex
$ cd annex
annex$ find repo | xargs -n1 git annex add
# Lots of errors of the form above.
You can't simply do `git annex add repo` because that will ignore the .git directory. Similarly,` git annex add .git` (which I'd think really should try to add the contents of the .git directory) ignores everything.
I don't know what this error means. Is there a right way to work around this?
