I think the correct steps should be, make a backup first :) then ...
1. git pull # update your clone, and commit everything so you don't lose anything
2. git annex fsck --fast # check the repo first, just in case
3. rm -rf .git-annex/?? # remove the old metadata
4. git annex fsck --fast # get git annex to regenerate it all
5. push your changes out to your other repos, you will need to make sure git-annex is updated everywhere if there are remotes in your setup.
I eventually migrated all of my own annex'd repos and I no longer have the old hashed directories but the new ones in the form
.git/annex/aaa/bbb/foo.log
I did lose some tracking information but not data (as far as I can see for now), but that was quickly fixed by pushing and pulling to my bare repo which tracks most of my data.
I also found that it worked a bit more reliably for me on the copies of repos that were located on case sensitive filesystems, but I guess that was expected.
