git annex fsck in bare repository

2011-06-13 Thread Richard Hartmann
Hi all (i.e. Joey),

  git annex fsck

is a no-op in a bare repository. While I can understand that there is
no (easy) way to verify the symlinks, the annex objects are there
regardless.
Wouldn't it make sense to allow me to check repo integrity in bare
repos, as well?

As an aside, should those smaller issues go into the wiki or onto
this list? Both is fine by me. Personally, I would lean towards Keep
small stuff on the list, save in wiki if there is a need.


Thanks,
Richard

Yes, fsck could check the size and checksum (if available). It could not
check the location log correctness or number of available copies.

I prefer to track such stuff on the wiki.

Sounds good to me. I am only concerned about data integrity, anyway.
