Hello,
I am trying to wrap my head around annex still. I'm creating a source local git repo, editing an annex file, and then syncing in a second repo. In that second repo I'm trying to figure out how I can get a status notifying me that a file is out of date.
If I use 'annex sync --content' the files are all up to date, as expected, but what I kind of expected is 'annex status' to say something like 'files out of date, blah blah'. I am spelling out my example below.
Annex version is 5.20140613
## I create a source and target repo, and I add a git managed file and an annex managed file
$ mkdir source target
$ cd source
$ git init
$ git annex init
$ cat > gitfile
hi this is my git file
$ cat > annexfile
hi this is my annex file
$ git add gitfile
$ git annex add annexfile
$ git commit -m 'init commit'
$ cd ../target
$ git clone ../source/ .
$ ls -al
total 16
drwxr-xr-x 170 Jul 15 15:55 .
drwxr-xr-x 136 Jul 15 15:54 ..
drwxr-xr-x 442 Jul 15 15:55 .git

-rw-r--r-- 23 Jul 15 15:55 gitfile
$ git annex sync
...
To [base path]/target/../source/
* [new branch] git-annex -> synced/git-annex
* [new branch] master -> synced/master
ok
$ cat gitfile
hi this is my git file
$ cat annexfile
cat: annexfile: No such file or directory
$ git annex sync --content
$ cat annexfile
hi this is my annex file
## So far so good. Now I'm going to edit my annexed file in source repo and see if I can find out that the file was edited in the target
$ cd ..
$ cd source
$ git annex edit annexfile
$ cat > annexfile
wow I changed my annex file
$ git annex add annexfile
$ git commit -m 'changed an annex file'
$ cd ..
$ cd target
$ git pull
$ cat annexfile
cat: annexfile: No such file or directory
$ git annex sync
$ ls
annexfile gitfile
$ cat annexfile
cat: annexfile: No such file or directory
$ git annex status
[no output]
## Here is where I'd expect something saying 'annexfile is out of date', etc.
## I can infer it because the link is missing, but I'm sure there's a more logical way.
$ git annex sync --content
$ cat annexfile
wow I changed my annex file
## After I synced content all is well.
