Please describe the problem.
We are running 10.20240831-1~ndall+1 as assistant
reprostim@reproiner:/data/reprostim$ ps auxw | grep assist
reprost+ 1102847 2.1 0.3 1074496300 122428 ? Ssl Sep05 1225:13 /usr/lib/git-annex.linux/exe/git-annex --library-path /usr/lib/git-annex.linux//lib/x86_64-linux-gnu:/usr/lib/git-annex.linux//lib/x86_64-linux-gnu: /usr/lib/git-annex.linux/shimmed/git-annex/git-annex assistant
and our underlying script produces bunch of files online while later renaming them. i.e. we are producing
reprostim@reproiner:/data/reprostim$ ls -l Videos/2024/10/2024.10.15-14.02.40.327--.mkv*
-rw-r--r-- 1 reprostim reprostim 165285526 Oct 15 14:12 Videos/2024/10/2024.10.15-14.02.40.327--.mkv

and whenever done, renaming to something like
reprostim@reproiner:/data/reprostim$ ls -l Videos/2024/10/2024.10.15-14.02.27.765--2024.10.15-14.02.34.175.mkv*

but the problem is that git-annex does not add to git some of the .duct_*.json files, i.e. it does add some times but not always:
reprostim@reproiner:/data/reprostim$ git ls-tree -r HEAD | grep '2024.10.15-.*\.duct_.*\.json'
