I am using the webapp to watch 3 repositories. When I run git annex webapp it starts watching one of the repos but unless I switch to other repos it does not start noticing changes after switching to each repo once it works as intended.

Each separate repository needs to have a separate
git annex assistantprocess handling it.Normally, these would all be started when
git annex assistant --autostartis run, typically when you log into a desktop environment.So, on Linux, this is done via a .desktop file (or you can arrange for the command to be run as the right user at boot if not using a desktop); on OSX it's done via a .plist file. On Windows and Android, nothing handles the autostarting yet.
I don't have a desktop env. just plain xmonad, so the correct sequence to start the webapp is,
right?
git annex assistant --autostartin.xinitrc, or even make a @reboot cron job that starts it. The webapp can then be opened withgit annex webappat any time. (The webapp is not a separate process and does not need to be started at login.)
