### Please describe the problem.
With a version above 5.20141125, git annex wants all remotes to get all files
when one remote wants standard.
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
- Create repo "a" and "b"
- Add "b" as a remote of "a"
- Add a file in "a"
- In "a", try git annex copy --to b. Nothing happens: this is the excepted behaviour
- In "a", run git annex wanted here standard
- In "a", try git annex copy --to b. Now, it wants to copy the file to "b" without any obvious (to me) reason
It may be useful to emphasis the fact that git-annex wanted to copy a file to "b" while we did not change the preferred content of "b".
I tried with the version 5.20141125 and the problem does not occur. It occurs
though with the versions, 5.20150731-1, 5.20150916-1 and 5.20150930-g40fdbe9.
### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?

### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
Definitely! git-annex is a wonderful tool that I have been using every day to manage all my files for 2 years now. Thank you for this excellent software.
