Please describe the problem.

Tried adding a removable drive repository through git-annex assistant on Mac, asked to encrypt it, got Internal server error with explanation: unable to determine gcrypt-id of remote

What steps will reproduce the problem?

current (today's) version of git-annex build for Mountain Lion installed app launched default annex initialized, a couple file added a removable 2GB USB drive (ExFAT) mounted in OS click Add another repository choose removable drive choose to encrypt a window explaining the need to wait for entropy shows then we get the Internal server error: unable to determine gcrypt-id of remote

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

git-annex version 4.20130922-g7dc188a Mac OS X 10.8.5

Please provide any additional information below.

looking at transcript below, it appears the root cause is the lack of initial git/gcrypt configuration. perhaps this needs to be caught/addressed somehow
