Please describe the problem.
With the latest git-annex-standalone version git annex assist and git annex sync --content print uninformational messages of the form "remote.<name>.url" to stderr. This doesn't really break anything, but it makes annextimelog print a warning because of the non-empty stderr.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
Run git annex assist or git annex sync --content.
What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
git-annex version: 10.20240731-g76f31d59b034ef647d0c94bc42aa75f411992230

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)
Yes! I am now using git-annex through annextimelog to track my working times and automatically submit them to my employer and it is working really well. This is also where I found this issue though, annextimelog treats a non-empty stderr from git-annex as something to warn about.
Indeed, I've already fixed this in master. I plan to make a release soon for it though since it's a reversion. done --Joey
