<p>On the laptop, I just have to run</p>
<pre><code>git annex enableremote usbdrive directory=/Volumes/usbdrive/annex
</code></pre>
<p>But I have not found a way to disable it (for use when the drive is unplugged) yet. It may not matter.</p>

<p>The directory= parameter to enableremote only affects the local
configuration of that remote, it's not stored anywhere. Which is why you
have to pass that parameter each time you're enabling that same
directory remote in different repositories.</p>
<p>So, it's fine to have directory= set to different values in different
repositories, or even to re-run enableremote with a new directory= setting
as needed.</p>

<p>Hi Joel,
thank you for the precision (and for git annex, and for all the rest!)
Cheers</p>
