<p>IIRC bup always initializes ~/.bup, even when using a remote repository.</p>
<p>Your mistake is that you have run <code>git annex initremote</code> twice -- so now
git-annex knows about two different remotes, which both happen to be backed
by the same bup repository -- but git-annex doesn't know that.</p>
<p>Instead, you should run <code>git annex initremote</code> in one repository, and then
use <code>git annex enableremote</code> in clones of that repository to enable your
bup remote.</p>
<p>You will probably want to kill off the redundant bup remote with <code>git annex
dead mybup</code> and then using <code>git annex enableremote</code> to enable the other one.</p>

<p>I've added a new section to the walkthrough about this:
