The same error does not occur with git annex copy --fast --to, for whatever it's worth: wanderer:~/courses$ git annex copy --fast --to work-desktop Arnold\ Weinstein/Understanding\ Literature\ and\ Life/01\ -\ Why\ Literature\ --\ Civilization\ and\ Its\ Discontents.mp3 copy Arnold Weinstein/Understanding Literature and Life/01 - Why Literature -- Civilization and Its Discontents.mp3 ok git annex sync thinks all the metadata is in sync: wanderer:~/courses$ git annex sync commit ok pull work-desktop ok pull origin ok push work-desktop Total 0 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0) To ssh://windlord.stanford.edu/srv/courses * [new branch] git-annex -> synced/git-annex * [new branch] master -> synced/master ok push origin Everything up-to-date ok (I thought those new branch pushes might indicate that it fixed something, but I'm still getting the same errors with git annex sync --content after running that command.) -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
