Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
git-annex is working well syncing with my rsync.net account
So it's trying to run "su -c". Does your OSX have the "osascript" command available? It's supposed to use that when available, which is the right way to run a command as root on OSX.
