Please describe the problem.

Shortly after starting the assistant the local client repository is in an inconsistent state. Just using the cli works fine without destroying the repository.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  • Working git annex repository

  • Start the Git-Annex Assistant

    git annex assistant

  • Wait a short time and then check the repository state:

    ➜ annex git:(master) ✗ gst On branch master error: Could not read ea63b58d1252e3432280cdce1282eb02035c926e error: Could not read ea63b58d1252e3432280cdce1282eb02035c926e fatal: Failed to traverse parents of commit 108fa97a989aeabff16738558e1aa636c836598b

  • refs/heads/synced/git-annex links to an unknown commit

    ➜ .git git:(master) cat refs/heads/synced/git-annex be8e6023fbb172b12cec8fdbaa8654194f71c4f5%

git show be8e6023fbb172b12cec8fdbaa8654194f71c4f5 fatal: unable to read source tree (d2959525362dcadd4dbec96a8f18d80cc689a851)

What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?

  • git-annex version: 5.20150508-gf71c23f
  • Mac OSX 10.10.2
