renaming directories not supported?

I have an annex repository with several of my CDs. They were ripped using MusicBrainz data, causing some directory names to be in Russian. This is something I wanted to change.

I have cloned this repository on my laptop, where I wanted to implement the change.

When I do a git mv ПётрИльичЧайковский P_I_Tchaikovsky on my laptop, I can commit the change. git annex sync also doesn't object

However, the original directory remains on the origin repository, and the renamed directory is not present.

Am I doing something wrong?

[master e112a02] Renamed Tchaikovsky directory.

Looks like you missed a step from your output (difficult to be sure because you don't show a full transcript showing a rename and it not being present in the other repo).

Have you updated the remote repo where the changes aren't present? 'git annex sync' or 'git annex merge'?

If you made the changes in repoA and ran sync there, it pushes the changes to repoB, but it can't update repoB's working directory remotely (restriction from git). You have to update it locally to see them.

First few paragraphs of sync mention this.

So if you run sync or merge in the remote repository, you should see your changes.
