> It sounds rather like the webapp is failing to create the repository. Although I would expect for it to show an error message in red beneath the repository path. OTOH, it also sounds like something (either the webapp or eg a manual git-annex run) set up a git-annex repository in ~/Documents.

As told before, there was definitely no git repository there before the webapp tried to create one.

> git-annex will be started automatically on login as long as ~/.config/git-annex/autostart lists a repository to use. If that file exists and contains ~/Documents then we'll know that the webapp successfully set up the repository.

There exists a ~/.config/git-annex/autostart containing one line, the correct /home/mylogin/Documents path to the folder.

There is no process with git or annex in its name when user logs on his desktop session.
