<p>The walkthrough assumes a system that uses indirect mode by default, so it won't work quite right on Windows, which is forced to use direct mode.</p>
<p>Running <code>git annex fsck</code> in the server repository will fix up this situation, but the right thing on Windows is to use <code>git annex sync</code> rather than the manual <code>git fetch + git merge</code> the walkthrough shows.</p>
<p>Guess I'll make the walkthrough use sync, although it may make it harder for people to understand what's going on internally.</p>
