Please describe the problem.
git annex works perfectly fine under windows now; awesome work! One of the tests in the suite still fails (which might affect some features, that I don't use (yet?)).
What steps will reproduce the problem?
$ git annex test -p addurl
What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
$ git --version

Is the curl command available in the shell where you ran git-annex test?
Just ran into the same situation! Happens in both v6 and direct modes. I have
